    who takes it their reach is almost identical despite the height difference

    I doubt Listons 84 reach. He had a great reach but not 84.

    I cant post the picture but look at this link from his later fight vs Leotis Martin.
    https://www.boxing247.com/boxing-news/remembering-leotis-martin/148932

    Puts his reach at 80,5 which seems more reasonable.
    Also feel he threw both Ali fights.

    That being said Fury's height and movement makes it that I favour Fury to win by UD.
    Liston could ko him though but my money would be on Fury.
    If he had the stones to fight him of course.

    Focused Fury picks Liston apart.

    Any version of Fury would duck Liston for a trilogy with Cleveland Williams

    Sonny Liston is smaller than roided Usyk....excluding his reach.

    Fury is undeniably the H2H goat. Lennox's claim is ruined by getting chinned twice.

    It is Fury who is the proven roider not Usyk.
