If Vitali doesn't qualify as a "tough guy" in your book, surely you can't think Liston does either, right?
Lewis and Sanders are both 6'5", 240-pound bombers. Liston was around 6', 215 pounds, and has been hurt, down, and stopped or KO'd by fighters...
Dempsey suffers the most IMO, because he missed out on some important fights for his legacy, and he's the only one of the group that never won...
Maybe not, but he was gassed in the 4th, 5th, and 6th rounds when he also withstood some solid punches from Vitali. And I'd say he was no more...

Moreso than Lewis proved his chin against Bruno, Briggs, or Vitaly? All of them were big punchers of even greater size than Williams, and they...
Lewis, Holyfield, Frazier, and both Klitschkos. Dempsey and Walcott would be at least pick 'em fights IMO. I also think some unlikely...
Liston twice quit or folded in HW title fights, and he was also flattened by a 200-pound fringe contender at a stage in his career when Wlad is...
How can you say with certainty that he has a lesser chin? His chin has withstood punches from fighters who weighed nearly 250 pounds (Vitaly,...
