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 always wish him and Chris Byrd fought, that would have been interesting.
I think he could. Lewis could be cautious and lackluster at times usually against soft opposition, ie Zeljko Mavrovic, and his 2 losses. But when...

Dwight Muhanmmad Qawi, and Vitali Klitcschko.
