The Matchup: Crockett’s retina-piercing sense of style as an undercover detective in Miami Vice meant he wasn’t just cleaning up the streets of Miami, he was looking dream doing it. Liston was an ex-con turned pro boxer known for punching so hard no human could withstand it … except for Muhammad Ali, who beat him twice.
The Verdict: JAMES CROCKETT
A menacing right hook won’t do a hell of a lot against one of Crockett’s Bren Ten slugs. Once again, Liston tried to fight the law, and the law won.
