Muhammad Ali vs. Ernie Terrell, billed as The Battle of Champions, was a professional boxing match contested on February 6, 1967, for the undisputed heavyweight championship.

During a pre-fight interview in ABC studios, a physical altercation ensued between the two. Terrell called Ali by his birth name of Cassius Clay multiple times. Ali interrupted Terrell, asking why he called him that; Terrell noted that Ali had introduced himself by that name when they first met which Ali denied. The situation quickly escalated and Ali said “my name is Muhammad Ali” and threatened to “make [Terrell] announce it in the center of that ring if [he] don’t do it now.”
He then called him “an old Uncle Tom, another Floyd Patterson”, and further threatened “I’m gonna punish you.” Terrell took offense in turn, saying “you ain’t got no business callin’ me an Uncle Tom. Don’t call me no Uncle Tom, man.” Ali yelled back “That’s what you are, an Uncle Tom!”, to which Terrell responded “Why you gonna call me an Uncle Tom, I ain’t do nothin’ to you.” Ali simply yelled “Uncle Tom!” repeatedly, resulting in a shoving match between the two.

In a 1979 interview, Ali said, “They billed the fight on that little grudge thing, and I wasn’t really angry – I didn’t care what he called me – but this was a good chance to promote my new image.”
