Ali didn’t dodge the draft. He went to jail.
Thanks for setting the record straight.
***Ali didnt dodge the draft. He went to jail.***
Ali converted to Black Moslem and claimed a religious differment from the draft as he was a “iman teacher”, then he went to jail, but the Federal Judges sided with him and he walked.
He still kept his big mouth going till SMOKIN’JOE FRASIER knocked the smartass out of him and left him permanently punchdrunk. Frasier still lost the bout.
Why did he go to jail?
What??? That’s like saying someone wasn’t a robber, but went to jail for robbery. Did he volunteer for jail? No.
Clay was a damn good boxer, but he was still a draft dodger.
He did not ever go to jail for dodging the draft. He did go to jail, (for just 10 days I believe), for a traffic type violation tho.
