The daughter and grandson of the late boxing champion Muhammad Ali endorsed Abdul El-Sayed in his campaign for the United States Senate, Al Jazeera reported. Khalilah Ali and her son Jacob Ali-Wertheimer announced their support during a church service in Detroit. [1]

During the endorsement, Khalilah Ali and Jacob Ali-Wertheimer said that Abdul El-Sayed is part of the legacy of Muhammad Ali, according to Al Jazeera. [1]

Muhammad Ali was an American professional boxer and activist who won the undisputed heavyweight championship and was named Sportsman of the Century by Sports Illustrated in 1999. In 1967, he refused induction into the United States Army due to religious objection, leading to a draft evasion conviction that was overturned by the Supreme Court in 1971. [3][5]

Abdul El-Sayed is the Democratic nominee in the 2026 United States Senate election in Michigan, as FTMQ News reported earlier. Republican nominee Mike Rogers recently declined to endorse comments made by Donald Trump regarding Abdul El-Sayed. [6]
