After a bout with Liston Ruiz would likely truly earn his nickname. Sonny would quiet him down for quite some time....IMHO.

- I see the fight being quite raucous with Sonny retired to his corner hollerin' to High Heavens about his shoulder, Juanita rolling around on the canvas hollerin' about his family jewels being broken into, and Jersey Joe being run in circles between Nat Fleischer and Madonna seeking advice.

Don King of course huddled in an impromptu meeting with org and commish officials handing out wads from his satchel.

Then you sir are NOT granberry, and I now take back several of the bad thoughts that I may have quietly associated with your moniker!

“Haters” John Ruiz would have kicked Liston ass from one corner to the other. Liston main weapon of intimidation would not work with Ruiz and in the end Liston would have taken a dive just to get out of the fight. Ruiz by TKO or UD. Say what you want but Ruiz has never quit in a fight like Liston did. :shame:
