    Clip: The Famous "Phantom Punch" from Ali to Liston



    Liston didn't even see it coming.

    Pretty good shot, eh?

    Either Ali's power is terribly underrated or that was a dive.
    The guy threw no body behind that punch.

        Rumours of Liston being involved in the Mafia, were basically true. Thats what casts a shadow over that punch.

        However, i think they have used modern technology to view that punch from new angles and found that Liston got hit clean.

            How?
            He threw no body behind that punch.
            Liston has taken harder punches than that and not even get hurt.
            Why was it that when Ali throw this punch he falls?

              You think Etienne took a dive against Tyson?

              I do.

              Etienne pulls out his mouthpeice once he hits the canvas then is "out".
