    Not a single valid argument except long pointless sentences which are 99 percent of post created by you.

    Again stupid to compare Ray Charles with a man that fought Liston and that felt blinded, and your best argument is to call him a liar just because he did not complain by yelling around.

    It has been well documented that Marciano complained about his eye-contamination during the
    fight.It is well-known that Marciano alerted his corner about his eye-contimination during the fight.
    This is as well known as the fact that Marciano knocked out Walcott in the 13th round.Any enquiry
    into this matter will tell you this.
    The same goes for Ali's declaration of Liston as being one of the greatest heavyweight-champions
    in history.All you have to do is enquire about Ali's opinion of Sonny Liston anywhere on the internet.
    If you claim not to know these facts you are either lying through your teeth or you are incredibly
    uneducated about boxing.
    Which is it ?

    Marciano just said that he had his eyes vision problem then after the fight he claimed he was blinded but he did not show any kind of eyes problem.
    Marciano never complained and did not accused anyone during the actual fight.

    Ali never said Liston was one of the greatest fighters only that he was awesome and powerful athlete.

    Yes he did ! Ali was adamant that Liston was one of the greatest heavyweight-champions of all time.

    Rocky informed his corner of his contaminated eyes.In Mike Stanton's excellent biography of Marciano (Title :Unbeaten-The Triumphs and Tragedies of Rocky Marciano ) he describes Marciano shouting at his corner '' I can't see.My eyes are burning.Do something ''.
    The author then stated that in the following rounds Marciano was having such a difficult time with his infected eyes that he actually backed away from Walcott.
    This is almost certainly the only time in Marciano's career that he backed away from an opponent.
    Ringside observers wondered why Marciano seemed to become unstuck despite not being hit by any one particularly big punch.It's all there in chapter 12,pages 203 to 205.
    I recommend that you read this book.

    No, it is stupid to accept Machen’s belated, opportunistic claim without any evidence otherwise.

    There is as much evidence to claim that Liston blinded Ray Charles as there is to suggest that he blinded Machen.

    You’re just too stupid to have appreciated the simplistic truth of the analogy and its illustration that there is absolutely no support for Machen’s claims.

    Machen chose to hide impossible to hide reflexive eye irritation?

    No one could be as gullible as you are framing yourself to be - except you yourself of course.

    Is this a short enough post for your gnat like attention span?

    Hit the road Jack…..:lol::lol:

    Man, the Sonny Liston vs BoxingFan rivalry has dissapointed me. It's been what, a month since it had first begun ? And they don't even bother interacting with each other anymore. Some McVey vs Mendoza rivalry I thought this was.

    Pugguy vs BoxingFan seems promising, though.
