Thread Name: BS: Worst prizefighter EVER?
Subject: RE: BS: Worst prizefighter EVER?
Bonavena was a tough fighter, who, as mentioned, went the distance with Joe Frazier, and who also beat Karl Mildenberger, a top contender in the mid-sixties. I've not heard before that Ali's knockout of Bonavena was a fix. What evidence is there?

The "phantom punch" was in the second Ali-Liston match. Is it that second one that Vince means?
