Cassius Clay is dying?
No comment.
The irony is he was named after a great abolitionist, Cassius Marcellus Clay ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassius_Marcellus_Clay_(politician) ) and changed it honor a Turkish ruler who owned thousands of African slaves (who were routinely castrated to prevent them from breeding).
