I don't know, I think it is gloves probably but can be shoulders, but gloves would be me option. It would be more logical to put that on gloves, don't you think.
I don't know that any substance made for shoulder could blind someone or be in someone eyes? He blinded someone on purpose deal with that.
If Ali said that he was blinded I'll trust him over anyone else. He didn't have a reason to lie, he wasn't sore loser like Liston who pulled 100 000 excuses because he lost a fight.
Honestly you need to reconsider the rubbish you are writing.Are you seriously saying that it doesn't matter whether or not Machen showed any signs that he ''blinded '' ?
No.Sonny,as well documented,was having severe problems with bursitis in his shoulders.So obviously it was infinitely more likely the solution was put on Liston's shoulders.
And who was this mobster ? How do you know he was a mobster.Was he wearing a fedora hat and carrying a suspicious looking violin case ?
