Great edit! I consider Liston & Bowe to be the most wasted talents in boxing history. Liston turned pro in 1953 (at 29 or more). If he began boxing like 5 or 6 years earlier, we would have seen him vs like of Marciano, JJW, Charles... Then, he had so many racial abuses by the police and was arrested multiple times. Had he not been arrested in 1956, Patterson would never have been champ. I think he would have easily reigned from 1956 to 1964 at least. The mob really ruined his potential. For Bowe, he had everything to be among the 10 greast hw. But after he lost to a (on drugs) Holyfield, boxing was not his concern anymore. The departure of Eddie Fluth was also a key point in his "downfall". So many wasted talents...
@@jhonatan3467 She said also he was born in January 1930 then she said 1932. We don't know exactly when he was born, but he was at least 40yo when he fought Ali. If we assume this, he was born in 1924
I was surprised when I heard from two boxers who faced George Foreman and Sonny Liston, saying that Liston hit harder, like the guy wasn't over 42🥶
Can you name some people who said that ?
Truly a powerful, foreboding-and most unfortunately-tragic figure.

Liston começou no boxe por volta de 34 anos ou mais, sua irmã disse que ele nasceu 1 ano depois da ww1, 1919
