Did he change it legally Bill? No matter how you dress it up, a pig is still a pig. Your wrong. If you wish to continue being wrong that's your prerogative but don't try to correct others when your ignorance keeps you completely awry of the facts.

Cassius is a beautiful name, Haye named his son after him, but Clay was the slave name which he wanted to change.

"You know, Cassius fell in love with me, for who I was. Then he wanted me to change, to help
him with his problems to get out of his commitment to the United States Selective Service."
"I got the feeling that I was being used as 'a tool'. I was his wife for God's Sake. He wanted me
to stop living, and become his slave. Isn't that a 'Fucking Spin' on his new found righteousness."
He was going to change his name anyway and had nothing to do with the draft.Quote:

Bill, you only see the worst in Ali, so there is no talking to you.
You shouldn't let your eyes be clouded by one man's Boxing Talent and Entertainment Value.Quote:

That's not knowing anything in 'real' depth.
Unless you knew him personally, you do not know him better than anyone else.Quote:

Ali was introduced to Black Muslims long before the draft.

It was his Management {The Louisville Sponsoring Group}, who knew that their fighter was, as we like to put it
'a fabrication' created by good press and a 'well-oiled' Professional Publicity Machine.
So they fabricated the top ten HW's? From what years? Please enlighten us. I like a good laugh.Quote:
