    that's a hell of a panel

    Marciano saw that the punch was legit

    Cool huh? There was still something of the 50's still in the air in '65, IMO.

    Someone just posted this, but it's worth rewatching. Note Dempsey's high voice which he says he got from his father.

    INteresting to see how Dempsey and Marciano ... especially Dempsey, shows no sign of all the punches he had taken .. sounded fine and clear to me ... Rocky was much younger and had much fewer fights but he sounded totally clear as well ...

    Liston never felled before Clay? Didn't Marshall put Liston down?

    Interesting comments. So Liston owned a piece of the the company who promoted this fiasco? Hmm....more ammo for the fix theory.

    Sorry to see Rocky go so young. He was a pretty good commentator on boxing.

    On this fight, I have seen the reverse angle, which Liston head does snap a bit. I view it as a flash knock down, and quit job by Liston who opted not to fight back.
