Muhammad Ali's speech has been slurred by Parkinson's disease, but his sense of humor is intact.

Although the former boxer refused to speak on camera for a "60 Minutes" profile that will be broadcast on Sunday, he and his wife, Lonnie, played a prank on correspondent Ed Bradley during an on-camera segment.Ali, seated at a table with his wife and Bradley, gazed vacantly into space while his wife explained that the champ occasionally lapses into the trancelike state - and sometimes even throws punches in the air.

At that point, Ali threw a left hook toward Bradley's head.

Bradley warily moved away; Ali smirked and those at the table broke into laughter.
