Sonny Liston -vs- Bill McMurray 3/16/68 (16mm transfer)

[@joegould4829]

I loved Sonny Liston.

[@johnfitzjohn4300]

Sonny was so underrated

[@josephgeorge7385]

Thanks for posting great channel

[@Sonnyboyx2]

Excellent footage Carl.

[@stevegreene1108]

There was a good reason why Fraizer and Quarry avoided Sonny

[@TheWhatMan80]

Sonny was like a shark there. He took his time moving around until he finally got in close and then mauled the dude.

[@Chill-qw1bx]

sonny is top 5 all time

[@RENEBOXYOUNG]

Man Liston was no joke, straight power house!

[@nickybadboy50]

Awesome!

[@anthonydileonardo8156]

A Liston-Bonavena match would've been huge...a non-stop brawl for sure

[@nickharmer3049]

Great stuff buddy. Never seen it before now. Thank you. 👊

[@anthonydileonardo8156]

Sonny had long arms, huge hands and a heavy back...that's what made him so powerful

[@rickrick5041]

I always wonder how guys from different eras would do against each other. Liston vs Wilder would be fantastic. Wilder takes out anyone with one right hand I guess but Liston?? He looked very heavy here by the way. I'd take Liston against Wilder, Klitshko and Joshua but it would be fascinating..

[@timpenfield5]

I cannot stop doing that, Dempsey vs Lennox, Tyson vs young Foreman. Or a 24 yr old Andre the giant in MMA, Etc... ill stop now, ok, 1 more, Kodiak bear vs polar bear, could not stop.

[@CYBOPOD88]

After McMurray got clocked in the first round, I thought he was going to jump out the ring and take a ringside seat and watch Liston shadowbox the rest of round... Your channel is heaven sent to old fight fans... rare films only found here.. Is it true they didn't film the 2nd Graziano vs Zale fight? That was a stupid question... If they had, you would've had it here already. Be sure to ring the bell after you subscribe.. rare fight films that have never been uploaded anywhere but here... FightFilmGuy has a friend who knows a friend.. who loans them here.

Big Bill McMurray my dads sparring partner and a cool guy when I was a kid. Dad: Fred "Preacher" Lewis. Sacramento CA.

[@getredytagetredy]

Benny Lohan ...cool...

[@wbaldwin666]

Irish bill or the preacher. They definitely are the champs of nicknames

[@Chill-qw1bx]

great timing, accuracy,unbelievable power, patience, ring generalship, one of the best jabs in HW history, great feinting skills, never off balance and you couple that with the biggest fists and wingspans in boxing history and you have one of the top 3 best pure fighters ever, the big bad bear, Sonny Liston. Joe Louis taught him well

[@dullknifefactory]

Chill Who told you Joe Louis taught Sonny Liston anything

[@getredytagetredy]

Chill.....I think Carnera and Buddy Baer had the same reach as Sonny , maybe Willard ?...Sonny would have beat all of them, though...

[@JomoDaMusicMan]

@@getredytagetredy WHAT U REALLY MEAN, IS SONNY WOULD'VE BEATEN MAX, BUDDY AND CARNERA ALL ON THE SAME NIGHT

[@getredytagetredy]

JomoDaMusicMan ...no doubt...

[@Chill-qw1bx]

@Aaron Digby SR he was old by that point and lost the desire. In his prime i think he would have beaten Ali

[@thomasnigrelli3923]

Liston was one of the best heavyweights of all time. Ali put him down with a phantom punch. I still think Sonny threw those fights with Ali.

[@TheBatugan77]

As do I.

[@swedenoble6083]

@@TheBatugan77 Muhammad Ali never touch Sonny Liston the mob was in so deep with sonny it was all taken care of way before the fight total b******* they wanted to move big mouth up the ladder Sonny would rip his guts out and spit them out in the audience ☺️😭😂🤭💪 watch the fight in any motion slow slower and sura there's no freaking punch but it doesn't matter Sonny was already getting involved with the mob the underworld and even heroin the boy that mother f***** could fight power baby power 😁👍👍💪😎

[@getredytagetredy]

After Bethea fight they made Sonny wait 4 Years to fight for the title...

[@rotichawal6697]

Wrong after Bethea he became a contender and still had to prove himself . "They" was Cus and Floyd .
