Were Ali's fights against Sonny Liston rigged?

[AintGottaClue]

Liston couldnt beat Ali anywayz

Dont think the fights were fixed but i think Liston could have got up from the canvas in the second fight if he wanted to.

Can anybody make a GIF picture of the "Phatnom punch" or upload the fight?

[ryder11]

it doesnt matter if anything was fixed or not ,its history and ali and liston were both great fighters and maybe liston was scared, ali was insane

Boxerdog and Ryder11 are both right. Liston stayed down because: 1. he thought Ali was insane 2. he was also spooked by the ****** faction. In regards to his itchiness, I quote the master: " Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. ~ Bob Dylan

Oh, Yeah! PS: Ryder11 was right on when he said they were both great boxers, that's a for sure on that one.

Ryder, how come you've got so much bad karma on just SIX posts? Is it because of posts like that? I'll top you up.
