Brought up on the wrong side of the tracks a young Liston found himself in jail and facing a life of crime until he was persuaded by the prison priest to take up boxing. A year later he was a free man and a professional heavyweight boxer with one of the most powerful and feared punches in the sport. Rising to fame and fortune with his vicious fighting style and a devastating left jab that lifted him up the world rankings, Liston battled through run-ins with the law and the Mafia to eventually claim the most important title of them all, the World Heavyweight Champion.
