    Nothing impressive there yet. You can see the jab and what it would later turn into though. Can see why Charles wasn’t impressed with him yet. Good to have u back Mcvey.

    If this Liston fought Marciano at the time he would be killed in less than 6 rounds!Wow!Sorry but this guy could not beat Baer!
    Golden gloves Foreman vs golden gloves Liston would be nice fight!

    What unpolished brawling....
    holding and hitting and plenty of wild looping punches you wouldn't think he would go onto become champion from this film.

    You can see there is a lot of potential there. Two handed power. Natural radar.

    When Liston was in prison, he was the prison boxing champion.
