Sonny should have a biopic out or something. Very complex man with ties to the mob who ends up dying under suspicious circumstances. There is a great story in his life. That movie with Ving was good but he needs a proper bio to tell his story.
One of my favorite Liston stories was that the wrestler dikk the Bruiser was talking greasy about heavyweight boxers and how he could beat them, so Liston caught up with him in Vegas and smacked him around until he was on the ground saying "I just want to go home".
Don't know how true the story is, but it's a somewhat popular story (or myth) in boxing.
