    Do you people just make this **** up?

    "205-210"

    He weighed 212 and 213 for the Williams fights and 221 for the King fight, generally considered his best performaces.

    "Haye is naturally bigger than Liston".

    Haye weighed more than Liston twice in his career and is taller.

    Liston has bigger measurements - comparable to Lewis's - and he trained DOWN for fights. You think he would be "205-210" for fighting in 2008?

    Are you pretending to be this stupid or are you serious?

    Your "facts" are made up.

    Haye walks around over 230 pounds, in great shape. I think that you obviously take this way too seriously. It's going to be ok.

    I love how people try to change the size of a fighter through their virtual time machine. Just ridiculous. Today, Sonny Liston would be 6'5" 250! If you start changing Sonny Liston's dimensions, then you start changing exactly who Sonny Liston is. For god sakes the guy was slow if he weighed in for a fight at 210 pounds... if he carried around another 20 pounds you could get to the center of a tootsie pop by the time his punch reached you.

    If he was taking supplements and pumping iron like Holyfield or Wladimir Klitschko, he'd be a lot more that 212lbs.

    Do you understand?

    Yeah, you know in the lounge, when people make **** up, that's funny. When people make **** up about boxer's, especially when talking about their favourites, I think that's a shame.

    Making up more ****?

    Who has claimed he would be six five?

    YOU tried to change Sonny Liston's dimensions suggesting he should be boling down to 200. Facts have already been posted in the thread describing Sonny's physicality, and unlike your made up efforts, they are for real.

    But whatever man. I know it's just circumstances. If this thread didn't relate to your Klitschko somehow, maybe you could interact with reality. So no harm done.
