    This thread is a joke. Liston by Ko in 1 and I thought Liston vs Cooney was bad. Cooney would break Golota's ribs within 3 rounds.

    I sense a highlight of Golota punching Liston's nuts into a pulpless juice to the sound of "Le Foule" as the screen begins to fade to black it pans to the crowd going full purge mode on one another Golota standing centre ring with a **** eating grin. "Yes, Is good"

    BTW, when Golota vs Tyson when Golota had numerous injuries to his neck and body the real proof was the turd in his boxing trunks, he got scared and quit simple as that.

    I like Golota, I like that his name is "Golota" and he has short hair.

    Did you mean Bowe vs Liston, or Golota vs Liston?
    If we're talking a prime Bowe vs Liston then things change quite a bit.

    Liston by 5th round Kayo. If Golota acts up, he gets it worse.

    The poll has Bowe not Golota? If we are talking Liston VS Golota I have Liston making Golota quit by the middle rounds while bust him up with his jab.

    Liston vs a prime Bowe is a significantly different fight but I still like Sonny still. I think Bowe does his best to take the fight to the inside where he was effective for a big man while Liston tries to keep the fight outside with his jab. This on paper is an incredibly bruising fight but one where I like Liston to out muscle the underated Bowe.

    Liston. KO/TKO 6.

    And Liston’s name should come first in the Thread Title. Top billing.

    The testicular terror is just an “extra” in this short film.

    Liston v Golota - Liston blitzes his man within three rounds. Whether or not Golota's up for the fight,he gets caught early.

    Liston v Bowe - Now this would be a FIGHT. I see a pretty even battle for the first half of the bout. Liston rocking Bowe with that battering ram of a jab and crowbar like right cross and Bowe responding with excellent inside work. Eventually,though,Riddick would start taking too many shots and the referee rescues him by the tenth round.

    If it’s Bowe vs Liston, you’d have to find the exact time and date of Bowe’s prime in order to make a fair judgement. Because I seemed to go to sleep one night in the 90s with Bowe as the No1 Heavyweight in the world. Then the next morning, Andy Golota was kicking his ass up and down the ring.
    (Slight exaggeration haha)

    As for Golota, Liston scares him off by round 3.
