One of the most replaceable HW champs? Sonny Liston?

Feed me more, I’ll need to hear it sir or I’ll be sending you back to the sweatshop on the Foreman shift.

 

Maybe not the way he did but plenty could get those two. Would you wager on a few names? How about say Rocky Marciano? I think he could take care of those guys Liston did potentially, Andy Ruiz Jnr - Dilian Whyte perhaps? I’d like to hear you place your fictional bet.

 

If you’ve misread the thread it’s about individual match ups so It’d be an Inshape jelly doughnut (well A shape LOL) vs the versions of Machen etc Liston fought so Hypothetically the version “around” Ruiz’s prime vs Machen, Folley, Patterson and Williams, Liston was a very consistent HW but that’s a separate thing for a different thread - I personally agree and think that is what separates the good HW’s from the champs is just that most of the time it’s discipline and “desire” (Monzon stayed up till sunrise drinking, smoking and chatting but never missed the gym I’ve read) but honestly what he chalked down on his resume we’re so-so guys I’d pick lots of “weaker era” fighters to replicate said wins say Corrie Sanders coming in, in good shape probably blitzkreig’s them all, Someone mentioned Ortiz not a bad choice, I think a case for Archie Moore could be made even and definitely for Charles before his disease began to heavily effect him.

 

I fixed it for you, classic mistranslation I already saw this episode.

Firstly are you sure you? got your blinders off fishy? - Ulterior motive? Pug I think Listons sucks (personally and it’s no secret) and that he had favourable circumstance (big fish little pond) his scalps aren’t H2H impressive at all and easily replicable wins… hence literally the entire thread and outline in the very first 2 posts… who exactly thinks I don’t think Liston is average H2H what’s my ulterior motive? Out with it

It’s not about his size, it’s also not relevant to the thread lol but quickly though… I have Joe Louis tearing Fury, AJ, Wilder and Usyk to shreds… I have Moore beating Holyfield (sometimes) I had Toney whooping Foreman and Walcott KOing Liston I’m the last guy to be called a modernist basing everything on size, I watch boxing and quite a few people boxing folk seem to think I get it a little bit so I think I have a balanced enough view but I'm human lol - Also are you an Alt? just odd timing is all BTW if not welcome to the forum comrade.

 

Mumbo jumbo - What’s my ulterior motive again? Please just answer the question.

 

Sure Here I’ll tell you why I made the thread… I saw Listons resume, it occurred to me a bunch of guys could beat the best folks on there, it’s pretty thin so I thought who is least most qualified guy would be to do it and become HW champ back then? (Fun little thread idea as lots of guys would have his advantages) Note here In this thread I also said Liston could get his best wins in one calendar year? stating it again “big fish little pond” better then his resume but IMO no great (H2H) but that’s irrelevant to this thread as it’s been clearly stated to be about his scalp collection not whether he was any good lol.
