Hi Joey.
As previous posters have said , Liston 1 was not as one sided as people think, as to Liston 2, by dint of the result of fight No1, the second encounter really can't be classed as an upset, some pundits clung to Liston retiring because of the shoulder problem, while some saw Liston as an old and shot fighter, so a question mark hovers over the " upset " in fight 2 , at least for me.
stay safe buddy .
Mike.
