Sonny Liston vs Ken Norton, both prime, 15 rounds.

Let me get this straight - you think Norton was the better man than Foreman?

Will if you can't see Liston's defensive skills there's not much more i can say on that front.

 

Your sense of entitlement is laughable.

I don't want to have to copy and paste that a second time.

 

I think he had more skills yes. I think it was things like his chin (which is not a skill) and his style that was wrong for Foreman.

 

Yes I do credit Liston for taking care of business against Patterson. Sonny was the ultimate hunter in these fights. He had Patterson mentally and physically just where he wanted him for every punch. I take nothing from him in saying that.

 

To be fair, he's still fairly young, and says he hasn't gotten around to watching Liston's era. Just give him some time John.

 

I'd say Liston by KO within 5.

 

Hang on swag, I have watched a lot of Liston fights in the past, some of them many times, but since I started watching boxing chronologically, I haven't watched any of Liston's fights.

 

Gotcha

 

He can always learn from the Guru if he wants

 

Well played mate.

The Guru knows all.

 

Cool

 

You did not need to the first time- I was asking why you think that exactly?
Have I done something to offend you exactly? I don't think I have truth be told.

Is typing difficult for you? Or are you purposefully just trying to sound like a classless douche?

 

The overall package of Foreman sits a long way above Norton.

 

Will has seen loads of Liston. That's his summation. Maybe it changes who knows. If it doesn't I'm sure you
will let him know about it

 

Take him under the wing.
