Hard hats went for Frazier because of the draft dodging and Muslim thing with Ali. It was not about love for Frazier but just anti-Ali.
This is what I remember the most as a little kid.
The politics of Vietnam served as a backdrop to the whole pre-fight build-up. I remember my dad getting in intense converations with draft eligible teenagers at the bar when kids were allowed in and the drinking age was 18.
It was the same before Ali-Quarry. Very generational in who wanted who to win.
