Jordan is #1 Alpha. He didn't incessantly trash talk you, he simply beat you and beat you badly. The guy played game 5 of the NBA finals vs the Jazz sick as a dog. He still dropped 38 points. Ali definitely deserves mention but people are confusing his boxing prowess with being the most Alpha. If Ali and Jordan were at the height of their careers at the same time Jordan would eclipse Ali, make more money than Ali, and be the center of attention. It's 2018 and people still have the Jordan Jumpman symbol on their clothing 15 years after his last game.
Ali became a FOLLOWER of Elijah Muhammed. He turned his back on his friend Malcom X for leaving the Nation of Islam under pressure from those within the group. A true Alpha wouldn't follow Elijah Muhammed or give up friends because it's pushed by the group. Just my .02 cents.
