Frank Clay at the age of 9 would have to fight off gang members in his Philadelphia neighborhood because they wanted him to join them due to his last name being associated with Cassius Clay... the man who knocked out Sonny Liston in 1964 for the Heavy Weight Championship of the world. Clay would never join a gang because he sternly respected his Mom and knew what would happen to him if he did. Life would present many more challenges for the young man who wanted to become someone in his life and not end up in jail or become a statistic like many he knew growing up.
