    Well, Patterson didn't give Liston a fair chance to outclass him every round, what, with him being unconscious and all.

    Now, Now. Why be predictable? bill blob? You're a newbie on this forum for all I know. Pathetic nuisance.

    No, Ali was more impressive against Floyd Patterson because he toyed with him.

    The difference was, Liston cheated against Zora Folley by blinding him. Ali beat him without cheating.

    The thread asks for similarities not differences.

    Ali's jab in the 60's was faster than Sugar Ray Robinson's jab. Game over.
