How does the Final Round and Cassius’s future as Muhammad Ali reflect what you learned about him in Rounds 1 through 9?
Teaching Suggestion: Encourage students to point out instances of foreshadowing to get at the book’s primary goal of showing readers how Cassius Clay became Muhammad Ali. It might be beneficial to review the definition of foreshadowing in advance of this prompt.
