http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/boxing/26343690 Two matches, Two fixes always 100% believed Liston threw both fights. Ali the self proclaimed Greatest seriously isn't even in the top 5 of anyones list that knows about boxing. Poor Sonny was so deeply involved in dodgy business outside the ring his boxing career took the hit
Yeah, that's why Liston's corner put liniment on his gloves so he could blind Clay for a couple of rounds before he threw the fight. The second fight, I'm not so sure about but Liston got his butt kicked in the first fight.
Maybe. Liston had a helluva beard and I have a hard time believing that he went down from that arm punch from Ali.
First fight was legit, so was second, I think after that knockdown Liston could have got up but didn't, he knew he could not win and will his will was broken
im an Ali fan from way back when he was Cassius Clay..... and i watch those Norton fights, and still wonder how he won fights I thought he clearly lost:think
That link proves absolutely nothing. Even if both fights were dubious, look at the photo of Ali in the 2nd fight, it's there right in front of you. Ali is gesturing for Liston to get up so he's clearly not in on anything. Not in anybody's top 5 who knows anything about boxing? You're just another clueless cretin with an anti Ali agenda.
That doesn't prove anything either. If anything, it would have been an obvious thing to do in order to fend off suspicions that he was in on the fix. IF there was a fix!
