Thanks, enjoyed it.
Leotis wanted Frazier next. Too bad it couldn't happen. I'm quite sure he could not have handled what Frazier would have came with, but we'll never know.
Sad to see Sonny go out like that, but at least he got knocked out for real that time.
RIP, Leotis and Sonny.

Certainly ONLY the great LeOtis could execute such a task. No one else in boxing history could legitimately accomplish this.
Not even Joe Frazier, Jack Dempsey, James Jeffries, Gene Tunney or any other highly skilled well known HW's. Only Leotis.
It simply could not be done.

In fairness though Liston was pushing 60 at the time.

As usual, you miss the point.
How's that thread you started about "How to Get a Man" going?
I haven't read it. For obvious reasons. But I bet it's not a patch on that other one you came up with ie "Sliding Greats".

Bazza, I couldn't care less what you think. Is that clear enough for you?
