  • The Praxis of a Protagonist!
    Aspects – poetry, prose, essays and anecdotes – By Arnold Bathersfield THE PRAXIS OF A PROTAGONIST! Ingenious Muhammad Ali – born Cassius Marcellus Clay January 17, 1942 in Louisville Kentucky died Friday June 3, 2016. He was more than a golden glover (1959,1960), and gold medal recipient (1960). He was a crafty, prophetic, iconic, innovative, complex prize fighter, who shaped a universal world view for justice, respect, and tolerance, while amplifying his disdain for racism, white supremacy, domination, oppression, bigotry, militarization, war, and imperialism. As a pragmatic and principled humanist he managed his skills with integrity, devotion, nobility and dignity in a sport that purports “brutality and blood”(civilization of barbarism). He announced in 1964 that he was a member of the Nation of Islam, and identified Africa as his ancestral homeland. His Business Manager Herbert Muhammad once said “Invite Muhammad Ali to fight and your country will share the world spotlight.” Muhammad Ali used his wits, vision, poetry, rhythm, rhyme, dexterity, oratory and sloganeering to taunt his opponents while acquiring attention to issues as he played and set his stage to grab the media: toying with Howard Cosell, his hometown Louisville, Berrien Springs, Michigan, Arizona or an “arena” – The world was his platform and he used it with fortitude, resiliency and forthrightness. He never side-stepped issues – even when he was stripped of his boxing title in 1967 and unable to practice his profession or leave the country, due to his conviction for draft evasion and sentenced to five years in prison, which was reversed in June 1971 (8-0) by the U.S.

  • Muhammad Ali Biography
    Muhammad Ali Biography “I’m not the greatest; I’m the double greatest. Not only do I knock ’em out, I pick the round. “ – Muhammad Ali Short Biography Muhammad Ali Muhammad Ali (born Cassius Marcellus Clay, Jr. on January 17, 1942) is a retired American boxer. In 1999, Ali was crowned “Sportsman of the Century” by Sports Illustrated. He won the World Heavyweight Boxing championship three times, and won the North American Boxing Federation championship as well as an Olympic gold medal. Ali was born in Louisville, Kentucky. He was named after his father, Cassius Marcellus Clay, Sr., (who was named for the 19th century abolitionist and politician Cassius Clay). Ali later changed his name after joining the Nation of Islam and subsequently converted to Sunni Islam in 1975. Early boxing career Standing at 6’3″ (1.91 m), Ali had a highly unorthodox style for a heavyweight boxer. Rather than the normal boxing style of carrying the hands high to defend the face, he instead relied on his ability to avoid a punch. In Louisville, October 29, 1960, Cassius Clay won his first professional fight. He won a six-round decision over Tunney Hunsaker, who was the police chief of Fayetteville, West Virginia. From 1960 to 1963, the young fighter amassed a record of 19-0, with 15 knockouts. He defeated such boxers as Tony Esperti, Jim Robinson, Donnie Fleeman, Alonzo Johnson, George Logan, Willi Besmanoff, Lamar Clark (who had won his previous 40 bouts by knockout), Doug Jones, and Henry Cooper. Among Clay’s victories were versus Sonny Banks (who knocked him down during the bout), Alejandro Lavorante, and the aged Archie Moore (a boxing legend who had fought over 200 previous fights, and who had been Clay’s trainer prior to Angelo Dundee).
