15 September 1978 - BOXER MUHAMMAD ALI IS A TRIPLE THREAT: Fighting
against an opponent 11 years his junior at the Superdome in New Orleans,
boxer Muhammad Ali, 36, scores a unanimous win after 15 rounds against
Leon Spinks to take the world heavyweight boxing title. Ali becomes the
first boxer to win the heavyweight championship belt three times.

Born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky, he began training as an amateur
boxer at age 12. At 18, he won a gold medal in the light heavyweight
division at the 1960 Summer Olympics and turned professional later that
year. He converted to Islam after 1961. He won the world heavyweight championship, defeating Sonny Liston in a major upset on February 25,
1964, at age 22. During that year, he denounced his birth name as a
"slave name" and formally changed his name to Muhammad Ali. In 1966, Ali refused to be drafted into the military owing to his religious beliefs
and ethical opposition to the Vietnam War and was found guilty of draft
evasion and stripped of his boxing titles. He stayed out of prison while appealing the decision to the Supreme Court, where his conviction was overturned in 1971. He did not fight for nearly four years and lost a
period of peak performance as an athlete. Ali's actions as a
conscientious objector to the Vietnam War made him an icon for the
larger counterculture of the 1960s generation, and he was a very
high-profile figure of racial pride for African Americans during the
civil rights movement and throughout his career. As a Muslim, Ali was
initially affiliated with Elijah Muhammad's Nation of Islam (NOI). He
later disavowed the NOI, adhering to Sunni Islam.
