    Yeah, I don't think Liston took Clay very seriously and was probably underprepared as a result.

    Interesting that Sonny was ready to go for the rematch in late 64 but an injury (help me here) postponed the 2nd fight. Also interesting is that Vegas had Sonny a 9-5 favorite in the Lewiston rematch.
