If a fighter today did what Ali did (name/religion change)

Australian boxer Anthony Mundine got some flak by making some anti-American remarks after 9-11. It was felt at the time that it might hurt his career. I don't know if it did or not. nobody knows who mundine is, if floyd mayweather said it, there'd be a terrible shitstorm

No one would really care....unless he said he supports Osama Bin Laden and all of Al Qaeda fighting the infidels, etc.

he'd actually have to volunteer to go to the war and do other things like speak to crowds. I realize things are done differently now. There isn't a draft and so forth. Its just a what if scenario. Since Ali is looked upon as an icon/hero and we are currently putting deserters in prison, I thought it might be an interesting concept, society has changed a lot in the last few decades. So if there was a draft and someone did what he did.

I dont think people would care about religion and name. We acep t more cultures and religion than we used too. I think it would be buzz in the boxing world but nothin HUge
