    I didn't think it was that tough!

    My guy fought this guy a total of 5 times, winning 4 of them. He won the vacant World Title when he beat this guy by a 15 round decision in the last time they met.

    Sorry man, i'm drawing a blank, as long as i've been watching boxing, I should know this, but I don't. Leave it up for a while and maybe someone else will get it.

    Patterson defeated Liston in 1955 in a street brawl in Cincinnati, Ohio. Liston would later go on to smack that bitch's ass for what he did to him 8 years earlier.

    Curtis Cokes

    "3. He has something in common with Ray Robinson, Lennox Lewis, Jack Johnson, Abe Attell, Sandy Sandler, Alexis Arguello, Joe Jeannette and even Barry Bonds, Bobby Bonds and myself, Henry Hascup."
