So who are the world class big men stopped by Shavers and Foreman. Neither ever proved themselves against contenders 240+
He'd just kayoed Holyfield that doesn't seem like something a shot fighter would do
Bowe has an extremely thin resume outside Holyfield this can't really be argued
Foreman and Shavers were big hitters in their day but that doesn't mean their power would translate well to later eras.
Eddie Machen beat Jerry Quarry as an old man we have multiple examples of Frazier victims losing to Liston victims
An old floyd Patterson beat a prime bonavena and was robbed against Jimmy Ellis who are among Fraziers best wins
You want to know who else quit Evander Holyfield against Sherman Williams was he just a bully coward as well?
Frazier's supposed resume edge is based on one win over Ali that's it. Without that win there is no resume edge. You're basing his advantage on...
Ken Norton also beat Ali but I don't see people picking him over Liston and nobody gives him a chance in hell against Tyson even though many would...
Frazier has the win over Ali but aside from that his resume is unremarkable and no better than Liston. Nobody he beat aside from Ali would be...
Frazier's claim to fame is his one win over a light hitting Ali. How this is relevant to matchups with massive punches I dont understand....

In Wladimir Liston is facing something he never encountered in his actual career a much bigger man with skills and athleticism. I'm skeptical...
Anyway I agree Liston is overrated by some at least people who think he would beat Wladimir Klitschko or Anthony Joshua or do well today. But...
While Frazier is trying to get in Liston will be hitting him back hard, what punchers did he beat remotely of Liston's calibre?
