Ali registered for the draft on his eighteenth birthday and was listed as 1-A in 1962.[96] In 1964, he was reclassified as 1-Y (fit for service only in times of national emergency) after two mental tests found his IQ was 78[97] (16th percentile), well below the armed force's 30th-percentile threshold.[96] (He was quoted as saying, "I said I was the greatest, not the smartest!")

But of course. Not only was he a Negroid, he was a dirty Muslim.

And they all have IQs under 81.

Pathetic.

Not the best . Henry Cooper effectively beat him twice and was a better boxer.

How? the two fights I saw Cooper was beaten by TKO because Clay found his weakness ... left eye cut .. hammered it ..... end of

first in 5 rounds, second in 6

how did cooper effectively beat him?

In the first fight Alis trainer admitted to cheating by delaying the round after Cooper knocked him out on his feet by 6 seconds and by using smelling salts on him. The fight was Coopers on TKO or points if not for that. The 2nd fight was stopped because of Coopers cuts yes, but he was ahead on points. Ali did not out box him.

Ken Norton beat Ali - he even broke his jaw.

So apart from the fact he lost in the 2nd fight cause he was cut, he won the fight. Thanks for rewriting the rules.

Also in the first fight, Cooper was in his prime wheres Clay was young. To me its like claiming Max Mirnyi was a better tennis player than Roger Federer because Max beat Roger in the4th round of Wimbledon 2002.
