No not at all as the days of slavery were all over from the days of President Abraham who abolished slavery for good. And it has not yet come back so the chance of Muhmed Ali and his brother being born as a slave can not happen.

Richard kiel, who played "Jaws" in two James Bond movies, recently wrote a book on the abolitionist Cassius Marcellus Clay who Ali's father was named after.

Ali himself is a descendent of pre-Civil War era American slaves in the American South, mainly to the state of Kentucky.

NO he became a Muslim after he lost his title

EDIT

Ali's father was a Methodist, and his mother was Baptist, and he and his brother were both raised Baptist.

He converted to Islam in 1964 before winning the heavyweight title.

In 1975, converted from nation of Islam to Sunni and in 2005 embraced Sufism.
