    I think he and Liston could be best buds, Pug.
    I can see Liston being fascinated by him, his tales of prejudice and the game against him would have sounded very familiar.

    Yeah, I could see that also Ferg, perhaps a bit similar to how Sonny looked up to Joe Louis.

    Johnson was a megalomaniac he wouldnt support anyone but himself. He´d be one of those back in my day types who wouldnt give anyone any credit. Some said he was taken from us too soon, well he drank heavily and drove fast so.....
