Sonny Liston video.

Oh man, I love this video. I've watched it many times over the years. Probably my favorite youtube clip on Liston!

 

I'll never forget when Sonny sang 'I Want To Hold Your Hand' on Ed Sullivan with all those girls screaming.

 

Liston was an great fighter and his boxing skills have become underrated.

 

Even the 10 year old kids in our boxing club like skipping to night train.
I've always described Sonny skipping to nighttain as being beautiful myself

 

liston was flat-footed in the ring. He showed he moved gracefully with the rope but was flat footed.

 

Despite being a power puncher, Liston could move quickly. He could throws two jabs, and cover the entire distance across the ring. He was a freak of an athlete.

 

Easily. Would be such a treat to see.

 

Liston was a beast. Great job again Rez!

 

Oh lol, for someone reason I thought Rez made that video. Yeah this is the first time I've watched that video. I really liked how it showed Sonny's softer side in it. With the the tv show clips you used. Really made Sonny look like a nice guy. Of course all the fight clips showed how beastly Sonny was in his prime. That jab and straight of Sonny's is just brutal to watch. Again, great job!

 

Liston certainly was a force of power. A hunter. So much authority in everything he did. Instinctively knowing when to punch. Very little safe distance for the other guy with that reach.
