    Ali goes 5-0 ( very close fights with Liston, Tyson and Holmes )
    Liston goes 3-2 ( beats Tyson, Frazier and Holyfield / loses to Ali and Holmes in close fights )
    Holmes goes 3-2 ( beats Frazier, Liston and Holyfield / loses to Tyson and Ali in close fights )
    Holyfield goes 2-3 ( beats Frazier and Tyson / loses to Ali, Liston and Holmes (close) )
    Tyson goes 2-3 ( beats Holmes and Frazier / loses to Ali, Liston and Holyfield )
    Frazier goes 0-5 but is competitive against all of them.

    I am sure you can....I think others might agree with you...this is why I call Frazier the most underrated HW, in the underrated thread

    As a Frazier guy I do agree that this would be a close fight. I call this about a 50/50 fight if there ever was one. I just fall off the fence on the Frazier side

    When I watch Holmes vs Mike Weaver, I often wonder, what if that had been Tyson, Fraizer or Liston in the ring with him instead of Mike Weaver?

    ali takes the Tournament beating everyone…….except Maybe holmes. i think holmes would be all wrong for him stylewise. i really think holmes could outjab him and take a decision.

    I mean in more of a perceived H2H threat. Yes most rate him top 10, but he loses in most hypothetical scenarios against other top 10s and even many fringe guys. Can’t tell you how many times he loses to Tua or anyone with a punch. 68-71 I only favor Liston and Foreman over him.

    Ali, Liston & Foreman for me,and he might be too sharp for an aging Sonny.

    Apparently you have Holmes Tyson & Holyfield besting him as well?

    Who is the best you see him beating?
