A champion.:good You'd think they would have found something more interesting to write on his grave stone but ''A man'' does sound mysterious.Like him.
2 questions 1. what do they mean by "a man" ? that liston was not a monster but a human being with feelings, wants, etc. ? 2. is liston's grave located at las vegas airport? someone mentioned that the grave was near the runways.
It’s a simple noun for a tricky character. There's honesty to it; 'Sonny' was once a champion and yet the world did not care. His being went through some shell lacking - he really was 'a man'.
It's funny cuz Jack Johnson told a reporter not much before he died.......''And always remember,whatever you say about me,just rememberthat I was a man.''
