Quiet Modest Clay Prepares for Toronto Title Fight
Cassius Clay, in a restrained mood, says he will retire if George Chuvalo takes the heavyweight title next Tuesday. He remains a heavy favorite in Toronto as promoters plan 39 closed circuit sites, with 210000 capacity and an expected $500000 gross, though there will be no live TV of the bout. The Canadian crowd and Clay’s quiet stance stem from criticism over his Viet Nam remarks and his Muslim faith.
