Michael Jackson admired Muhammad Ali from a young age. He looked up to Ali as a symbol of strength, courage, and integrity—not just in sports, but as a man who stood firm on his principles, especially during the Vietnam War and the civil rights movement. In interviews, Michael often cited Ali as a personal hero—not just for boxing, but for being unapologetically himself and standing for what he believed in.

Michael and Ali appeared on a couple of shows together in the 1970s. When Michael asked the legendary boxer what he planned to do after retirement, Ali responded: “If I’m ever out of the ring, and I find myself in a fix, I’ll join you guys, and we’ll become the Jackson 6.”
