    @Ken Ashcroft -- Saw that you accidentally voted for both Sonny Liston and none of the above.

    Fair enough. But since you're here do you mind casting your votes?

    Yes my first choice was none of the above before deciding that based on new evidence submitted on the recent thread showing a picture that now suggest Rocky and Sonny were actually the same size :) that maybe Rocky could beat Liston of all the names there. Unfortunately, I forgot to deselect my first vote before casting my vote. Apologies for the confusion.

    He was ignored and dismissed for the same reasons then.

    He beats Frazier imo, but it's really a toss up fight.

    Frazier
    Bowe
    Holyfield
    Wlad
    Fury

    Liston would be 50/50 imo
    Vitali undecided
    I prefer to judge AJ after he has retired.

    I'm glad you did. It SHOULD put a stop to the "Liston would TOWER over Marciano" crap!!! I met Sonny in 1964 when he was training for his 2nd "fight" with Ali...

    It bugs them that The Rock went 49-0 with 43 KO's. The reason?...because he doesn't fit everyone's idea of what the Heavyweight champion of the world should look like!!!
