    You must be trolling me. :lol: Liston's arms were longer than Foreman's (and anyone else's for that matter except Lewis' who's reach was equal)
    Liston had bigger biceps than Foreman.

    I think it was Terrell who said that he kept Liston on the outside during sparring, I may be wrong. I was referring to reach in the context of it being usable, height gives better angles than reach alone. The Liston had long arms he out jabs everyone meme is always amusing.

    #1 Leotis was NO bum.
    #2 Sonny was approaching 40 yrs. old and his 'comeback' had NO support from anyone, not the press, not anyone; he simply was on an 'illfated' comeback trail.
    The Martin fight hardly qualifies as a Foreman destroys Sonny argument.
