    I pick Liston-Foreman. Foreman said Liston was the only guy who made him consistently back up. I would love to see this but have never seen it before

    Your picks?

    Probably the most coveted sparring session ever. Liston vs Foster, although i would love 2 see Foreman and Quarry.

    Some of the ones listed I really like are
    Kronk Sessions
    Foreman -Liston
    Dempsey- Galento if true along with some Dempsey exhibitions with Baer & Schmeling.
    Walcott Louis
    Briscoe Braxton even though Bennie was past it
    Curtis Parker supposedly kicked everyone's ### in the gym
    God only knows how many other greats sparred with each other
