    My picture is up because it makes Liston look IMMENSE. Angle or what, look at the sheer size and muscular bulk. Ali looks like a middleweight compared (tho their size is obviously much closer than it appears here) to the hulk that is Liston. Great pic.

    You hate Ali now, too?

    You're right, it is a good shot, and total inverse snobbery for me to complain about an Ali picture in a Liston thread.

    I don't hate Dempsey either! I just don't want to marry him. You do. You want to marry Jack Dempsey.

    It's a Liston pic, just from the back!! :lol:

    Perhaps i should have cut Clay out, or even went as far as cutting it near Sonny's left wrist so we might imagine the punch was going to land

    :angel

    I'm far too high to manufacture a proper retort at this time. To be continued. On a side note: North is such a screwy flick. It's nothing like that in Alaska.

    I guess I didn't load my Liston picks from my old comp. Balls. Do one for Ketchel, or Schmeling, I have good ones for those guys. See Avatar for evidence.

    We'll do a proper thread on Ali in the coming weeks though.

    No sweat mate. I wasn't complaining about the pic actually, just responding to Loewe.
