    Default Why did Harry Carpenter call Ali his slave name Cassius Clay?

    Watching Ali v Frazier 1 and I'm getting a little annoyed on Harry Carpenters commentary, he keeps calling Ali by his slave name Clay.....is it due to the fact that Carpenter was ignorant to the name change or was it just ignored by the media?

    Carpenter was still a legend but found this to be disrespectful to Ali

    Thanks in advance!!!

    Ali and Harry had a joke about it, they were good friends.

    Also you're a prick man seriously.

    Peasant? Really? I would just stab you in the face.

    eh!!! eh!!!!

    I don't know how you can find it disrespectful in any way unless of course you are Ali

    And even if you are Ali or the biggest Ali fan in the world how cheeky and/ or up Ali's arse to find the word clay disrespectful when you consider all the bullshit Ali was giving Frazier
    think happy thoughts
