The fight between Sonny Liston, and Ali you can see Liston pulling a fast one there. It's amazing that they allowed that to slide by (blinding Ali). I was expecting Ali to put a pounding on Linston as punishment for what he pulled.
Oh well!

He tried but Liston quit on the stool in the 6th round as I recall. The second fight was the one in Lewiston, Maine with the"Phantom Punch".The fight between Sonny Liston, and Ali you can see Liston pulling a fast one there.
