Muhammad Ali was considered a rebel primarily for his defiance against the Vietnam War and his refusal to be drafted, citing his religious beliefs and opposition to the war. He famously declared, "I ain't got no quarrel with them Viet Cong," highlighting his stance against fighting for a country that he felt oppressed African Americans. His actions led to legal battles, stripping him of his boxing titles and resulting in a three-year prison sentence. Ali's courage to stand up for his principles made him an iconic figure in the Civil Rights Movement and a symbol of resistance.
