BBC ALBA - Muhammad Ali: An Gasigeach, Series 1, Round 2: What’s My Name?

Ali is banished from boxing for refusing the army draft.

Ali defends his world boxing title for three years before he is banished from the sport for refusing the army draft.

Cassius Clay joins the Nation of Islam and adopts the name Muhammad Ali. For three years, Ali dominates the heavyweight ranks but in 1967, he refuses induction into the US Army and becomes one of the most reviled men in America. Ali is stripped of his title, convicted of draft evasion and forced into exile. In 1970, he triumphantly returns to the ring, but it’s clear that he has lost a step.

Chaidh Cassius Clay dhan Nation of Islam, a' gabhail an ainm Muhammad Ali. Fad trì bliadhna, bha e aig ceann rangan an trom-chuideam, ach ann an 1967, dhiùlt e a dhol dhan arm, rud a chuir gràin air sluagh Ameireaga. Thugadh a thiotal bho Ali, chaidh a dhìteadh airson diùltaidh, is chaidh fhògradh. Ann an 1970, thill e dhan chearcall le fruis, ach bha e follaiseach gu robh e air ceum a chall.
