It was like a certain president who at the time decided it was better to burn his draft card, protest his liberal president's war, than go off with other young men who sacrificed their lives. Oh yeah, that guy smoked dope but didnt inhale...So why during the Vietnam War where many young men Cassius Clay's age were going in and being killed, did this named boxer and his cohort Lou Cinder both conveniently change their name so that their religion of war could keep them from participating in Democrat Johnson's war?Cassius Clay was a chicken shit coward...Changed his name so the black guy could avoid going to war, when the Democrap President L. B. Johnson was sending young kids to be killed.my favorite photo of all time!
Today in sports history: Muhammad Ali knocks out Sonny Liston in '65 title rematch
Here's a look back at sports happenings on this date in history, May 25:www.tulsaworld.com
I still see absolutely no evidence that Ali changed his name to avoid being drafted.
With all your talk about honor & integrity, I would think you would retract that statement.
First of all, was the draft happening when they converted?
Second, and more importantly, is there ANY evidence to suggest they were not honest in their conversions? The idea that every conversion to Islam during the Vietnam war was solely to evade the draft is ridiculous. Ali was active in his faith, even changing it to another variant of Islam long after the war was over.
Now the other question is, will you adkitvto being wrong and apologize?
