Muhammad Ali’s influence went far beyond the boxing ring. He became a symbol of strength, courage, and social justice. Ali’s refusal to fight in the Vietnam War due to his religious beliefs and stance against racial inequality made him a global icon for activism. His charismatic personality, legendary fights like the "Rumble in the Jungle" and "Thriller in Manila," and his battle for civil rights transformed how America viewed athletes. Ali didn’t just change boxing—he changed the world.
