    Everytime I see the guy, I get so pissed, his face makes my blood boil. GAH! I cant stand this MOFO!

    I want to like him, but I just cant!

    sonny was actually very likeable , i can see why floyd doesnt care much for him, they share such a nice record together of 2 heavyweight title fights, less than 3 minutes total

    Sonny was a nice guy... Makes me feel bad about having the Ali Liston poster on my wall..

    What don't you like about him?

    The fact he used some crap on his gloves in the first Ali fight is bad.. but otherwise he sounds like he was a good guy...

    Nobody ever wanted him.. then when Ali came along everybody wanted him to beat Ali.. but that didn't happen

    All his life he only knew rejection.

    Everyday I watch Liston vs Leotis Martin to pump my spirits.

    Because he resembled the man who took Michael Jackson's childhood. That being his father, Joe Jackson.
    See for yourself.

    **** those fixed ass fights.

    Worse than GGG (Gerardo Gonzalez Gavilan) losing his WW title to Johnny Saxton.

    Liston bitchslapped Ali at the Thunderbird in their only legitimate physical encounter.
