Muhammad Ali was God level anti-cac

[BigMoneyGrip]

Turned into a uncle tom for what he did against Joe Frazier.

Joe was genuinely hurt by that shyt Ali said tho… damn near bought mans to tears

 

[Jalether]

Pro black activists back then had significantly more courage

I still can't believe a draft happened in America as recent as the 60s, such a fukking disgusting practice.

If they try that shyt for Israel i pray to see the result that I expect to happen. That will create the revolution immediately. Everyone will refuse and take it to the streets here.

How every black man should operate

 

[beenz]

That man was spittin…

and this is why he transcended sports. he literally sacrificed the prime of his career to stand up for what he believes in

 

[Po pimp]

Ali wasn’t anti-white. He was pro black. There’s a difference. He would've never done all those interviews with white people if he hated them. His trainer was white.

 

[TRUEST]

White folks didn’t like him till he was unable to really speak or hardly walk anymore

Dude was the truth

Didn’t like the joe frazier bashing tho

I got the names wrong. an audacious quote nevertheless

Edit:
Jack Johnson

Ali learned from Joe Louis.

nah they were 2 different ppl from 2 different generations..they were opposites...in that time period joe didnt like ali's stances and ali called him an uncle tom for it

ali def wasnt anti-white...the man went to a KKK meeting and agreed with them on miscegenation

he had a white trainer that he went to bat for when the NOI wanted him gone

 

[BandOfGypsys]

No shyt, he wasn't just a boxer he was technically also a Minister in the NOI!

 

[UpAndComing]

I'm happy the Coli has finally started to catch up on how amazing Muhammad Ali is

The GOAT

 

[WesCrook]

Joe Louis was great but he was the opponent of Ali. Joe Louis never said anything about racial inequality. The reward he got was being bankrupt after retirement and still being discriminated with housing despite being the Black champion who placated white racists.

Joe really didn't have a choice...especially during those times.

Ali learned from Joe Louis.

Actually no, they were the opposite
When Jack Johnson won the heavyweight title in 1908, it caused an uproar in White society. On top of Johnson being unapologetic during his reign. That abgered white media so much, they barred Black Men for ever competing for a Heavy weight title for damn near 30 years

So when Joe Louis came along, he had a white manager that told him he had to be an unassuming token Black man to the media to "win White America" back. So he had to play that game. Never trashed talked or backed talked anyone on camera. That was only way he could keep his titles

If you want to find a predecessor to Muhammad Ali, it would be Jack Johnson and Sugar Ray Robinson

Unfortunately, our heroes aren’t infallible. That was a huge stain on his character. Way off code during that whole promotion.
