    Incredible, just watch the beginning, he doesnt miss a beat like the narrator says.

    Anybody know where I can find that fast version of night train? I only have the slow Jimmy Forest version

    Interesting that Clay said Liston is 40 years old....or even older.

    More nice footage MR. REZ,,,,,,

    If you look closely at the fight,,,,,,,,,,you can see a wad of money in Sonny's left sock.
    I think that's where the $300,000 was stuffed.

    Haha, Ali is probably the greatest troll ever... it took a massive set to psyche Liston out like that.

    One thing in that fight, Sonny never could get low enough to walk
    into Cassius,,,,,,,,,

    Now Joe Frazier, he knew how do it.

    Sonny tried to punch his way in, while Joe just drove in, then unloaded.
    Speed was the difference between the two,,,,,,Sonny was just too damn
    slow.

    Frazier's handspeed and ability to cut off the ring was underrated up thru the FOTC.

    Agreed.

    Maybe Sonny would have had more success against Frazier... after all "styles make fights"
