Is Muhammad Ali an American Hero?

[Gandalf]

Ali should be an all American hero he believed and he achieved just like the American dream.

In terms of boxing, he can be regarded as nothing less than a hero. He was phenomenal and to come back after that long layoff and stake his claim at the top was an exceptional achievement. A special fighter.

Gonna get accused of trolling even though I'm not....

Can he really be an american hero? After all he did refuse to go and invade someone elses country and kill a load of innocent people. Usually it's the other weay round to be called a hero these days.....

And thats before we get sarted on the fact hes a muslim....
