    Interesting. I never read that Machen claimed it happened nor do I see him reacting so during the bout but who knows ? Liston was with nasty folks and the game as a whole is filled with many unethical characters so it is possible .. still, I'd tend to give it more legitimacy if I saw any indiction from him that his eyes were hurt .. I"ll get around to rewatching the fight tape .. that being said to me he fought a smart survival type fight and Sonny clearly not only won but showed he had the stamina to go 12 pretty easily for a big guy ..

    We should have Jersey Joe ref-ing.....and third party Nat Fleischer controlling the count, if these two actually ever tangled for real.

    I would not consider it to be a big deal if they did it 20 seconds more quickly!
