Sonny Liston
there's a movie being released about him this year:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1131747/
the one guy who Ali said he was scared of even though he won both their fights (albeit controversially)
interestingly, no-one knows for sure when Liston was born or even when or how he died...
could be good...

Preparing for marriage, are we?

No need.
You'll be killed by other forces.
The same ones that killed Sonny.
And all men.

Yeah. I reckon he took a dive in that famous Ali fight, you know the one. Apparently he had an irrational fear of needles which doesn't fit in with his cause of death which was an OD via hypodermic drug overdose.

"Liston was giving me that stare. And I won't lie: I was scared. Sonny Liston was one of the greatest fighters of all time. He was one of the most scientific boxers who ever lived, he hit hard and he was fixing to kill me. It frightened me, just knowing how hard he hit"
