Muhammad Ali was stripped of his heavyweight boxing championship title for refusing induction into the armed services during the Vietnam War, citing his religious beliefs and opposition to the war. He famously stated, "I ain't got no quarrel with the Viet Cong." Ali regained his title by defeating George Foreman in the "Rumble in the Jungle," held in Kinshasa, Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo) on October 30, 1974.
