                  Cassius was the name his parents gave him so can't really say it's his slave name. I think the last name is different story.

                          Trust some idiots to try and make disrespect out of nothing he is simply paying homage.

                              That was the name Ali himself renounce. So no I didn't mess up, if he wanted to pay homage to Ali wouldn't he name his son Muhammad? Lol

                                  Haye did what he wanted in naming his son after somebody.

                                  Haye did nothing wrong in naming his son.

                                      Cassius wasn't the slave name Clay was, in fact he called himself Cassius X before changing to Muhammad Ali.
