    Sonny Liston one of the greatest

    He would have wiped the floor with legends like Dempsey and Marciano and Frasier. I would have him in my top 5 best heavyweights ever.

    In his prime Sonny was a composed and clever boxer with devastating power and that awesome battering ram of a jab.

    It's a real shame casuals and the general public just know him from that bull**** dive poster.

    Plus of course he had the most menacing countenance in boxing history.

      The most intimidating fighter in my opinion. A legend.

        I like Foreman’s wins better, and therefore rank him higher than Liston. I think Liston beats Dempsey and Marciano, but I’m less convinced against Frazier. I don’t see him beating Holmes.

            Liston would have crushed Frazier in a round

              Why can't you guys praise a fighter without demeaning other fighters?

              The lists are one thing but this other thing: "he would destroy" - "he would crush" - so and so "wouldn't last a round." All this hyperbole makes your arguments sound silly but more importantly they are disrespectful to many a great fighter.

              Cut it out. Respect these ATGs. All of them.

                We all know Frazier was a great fighter, but i stick by what i say that Liston would have crushed him like Foreman did. This is the way i talk. I tell it like it is. If you don't like it then stay away from my threads.

                  A turf war. I feel like I should bust out with a Westside Story rumble dance.
