Former world heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali, still Cassius Clay in print, faces a potential reversal on his draft-evading conviction as the Supreme Court sends the case back to a federal court to examine possible illegal eavesdropping. Ali said he would meet with his lawyer in Chicago within days to plan moves and would be ready to fight by September if the conviction is overturned.
