Hate Speech In Ali RIP Thread

[Merneith]

@Colibri

It doesn’t appear to be anything Ali said about himself. The phrase appears in his autobiography The Greatest, but Ali is quoting Judge Aaron, who was castrated by the KKK, who asked him “you one of them loud-mouthed Martin Luther King niggers?”

Here.

Yeah, that doesn’t match what Little Pig claimed either.
Here is Little Pig’s claim (with the n-word elided, since the mods are objecting to it):

@Little_Pig

I never said Ali wasn’t a great boxer, Frank. Maybe you can help with the following. There was a documentary about his disease and retirement done in the late 80’s or early 1990’s. Ali was interviewed and when reflecting upon his youth he said, “I was nothing but a loud mouthed n-word”.

I was floored by his statement. The documentary is out there Frank. Wanna help find it? Lemme know.

So Little Pig’s claim is that he heard Ali call himself the n-word in a documentary.
That’s the thing that I said I can’t find any evidence for that claim.
