I dont know what that means. People are either scared of u or they are not and people were scared of Tyson.

In fairness the same was said of Tyson. Rid**** Bowe said back in Brownsville if u saw Tyson coming u crossed the street just in case...

Yes, but these are literally teenagers we are talking about.

The fact about Liston is that besides having kept an aura of invincibility well beyond the age at which Tyson crumbled, he also had solid links to the mob.

Im not trying to take anything away from Sonny, i get scared looking at pictures of that guy! Just saying back then Tyson was wrecking guys in spectacular fashion, and just had that mean look to go with his tank like build and Mike was a street guy, alot of hip hop gangster type friends and stuff, hardly the mob but still...

Look Tyson was scary as hell too, and even fighters were scared of him in the 80s, which is a rare thing IMO. BUT, some ppl ****ed with him in the 90s, and i mean outside the ring (hence famous incidents). There is very little evidence of anyone ****in with Liston.

Liston was also scary as hell, but I think this is also because Liston was a mob's fighter. He made them money, and you did not want to touch anything making them money, much less 200+lbs of evil making that money.
