Will Smith actually turned down the role of Ali. He relented after Ali called Smith and asked him to take the role, because he was the only one as good looking as him that could play the role.
On June 10, 2016, Will Smith was a pallbearer at the real Muhammad Ali's funeral.
Will Smith and director Michael Mann offered to put up their salaries in case the film went over-budget.
Will Smith gained weight to match Ali's 210.5 pounds.
During the opening weigh-in scene, as the shoot was running into the early morning hours, Jon Voight took extras cell phones and called their homes. Some people got voice mails saying "This is Jon Voight. Don't worry, your husband is still on set working, not out in a bar, or chasing girls."
"Muhammad Ali: I ain't draft dodging. I ain't burning no flag. I ain't running to Canada. I'm staying right here. You want to send me to jail? Fine, you go right ahead. I've been in jail for 400 years. I could be there for 4 or 5 more, but I ain't going no 10,000 miles to help murder and kill other poor people. If I want to die, I'll die right here, right now, fightin' you, if I want to die. You my enemy, not no Chinese, no Vietcong, no Japanese. You my opposer when I want freedom. You my opposer when I want justice. You my opposer when I want equality. Want me to go somewhere and fight for you? You won't even stand up for me right here in America, for my rights and my religious beliefs. You won't even stand up for my right here at home."
"[in an interview about a possible title fight with Joe Frazier] Muhammad Ali: But if I ever was to get in the ring with Joe, here's what you might see. Ali comes out to meet Frazier, but Frazier starts to retreat. If Joe back up an inch farther, he'll wind up in a ringside seat. Ali swings with his left. Ali swings with his right. Just look at the kid carry the fight. Frazier keeps backin', but there's not enough room. It's only a matter of time before Ali lowers the boom. Ali swings with his right. What a beautiful swing. But the punch lifts Frazier clean out of the ring. Frazier still rising, and the referee wears a frown 'cause he can't start countin' till Frazier comes down. Frazier's disappeared from view. The crowd is getting frantic. But our radar stations done picked him up. He's somewheres over the Atlantic. Now, who would've thought, when they came to the fight, they was gonna witness the launching of a black satellite? But don't wait for that fight. It ain't never gonna happen. The onliest thing you can do is wonder and imagine."
