Some say Sonny Liston was brought down by a “”phantom” punch. Appears to be a series of phantoms here. I cannot tell if this was legit or not. What do you think?
Unless he pulled a WWE blade job the cut right above his eye looked real.
It wasn’t a phantom punch. It may have been a lucky punch, but it was definitely legit.
It was definitely legit. Petruzelli cleared some space with that front kick and Kimbo thought he could come in with that right. Problem was he led with his chin and Petruzelli dropped him with a left. After that Petruzelli was all over him.
I had to watch the one angle about three times to finally pick up the actual punch that did the deed. A short right jab that caught him on the right eye. It must have been completely unexpected because it sure rattled his jello.
