Man that's some bloody ****. Had that fight taken place anytime after Holmes-Cooney, it probably would have been stopped a lot sooner.

 

Liston said something like he hated hitting the guy anymore.

 

I have the gloves that Liston wore in that bout.

 

Unlucky.

 

I hope you had the tips of them tested for HIV.

 

I have a poor quality film of the fight with no sound.

OK, the film ends just after the start of the 9th

 

The film is so bad I could probably have told you it was Greb vs Langford

 

Look at Wepner going down from a body blow at 2:45 (part 2).

 

Looks like a slip/poor balance rather than a damaging punch.

 

Agreed. Thought it was interesting though because Wepner claimed he had never been knocked down before he fought Ali. Buster Mathis supposedly knocked him down also.

 

Bugger.I didn't know the Liston-Wepner videos had already been posted here.

Apparently Sonny was standing on his foot.

 

Ah, quite like the Ali v. Wepner one where Wepner was standing on Ali's.

 

I guess we now know where he learned that trick.
