Ok but as has already been addressed is the fact that since Ali did stated that Liston provided him with his toughest fight is confirmation that he found Sonny Liston to be an extremely formidable opponent.If he changed his mind later on fair enough but the key issue is that at one time Muhammad Ali did nominate Sonny Liston as his toughest opponent.
That’s fair enough but our friend stated that Ali had never said Liston gave him his toughest fight when he clearly did.
Someone butthurt again? Is your hero still green with 35 pro fights just because LHW beat him like a drum?
I know what Muhammad said in his autobiography, and I also know what Angelo Dundee said. The question is which was Ali's hardest and most difficult fight, and the answer to that, the hardest single fight he ever had, Ali unquestionably believed it was his third fight with Frazier, the "Thrilla in Manila." Ali said: "that was the closest thing to death I ever experienced." CREDIT PICTURE FIGHT CITY In his autobiography,"The Greatest: My Own Story," Ali said the first fight with Norton, which he managed to finish on his feet despite a broken jaw was: the second toughest time I had as a fighter." (Manila was first) In total, the hardest fights, plural, of his career, and his two most difficult opponents, were those fights with Kenny Norton, with Joe Frazier a close second.

He did survive, that was not serious injury that could ens his life but could hurt his carrer and it for sire hurt his performance. It's helluva worse than injured shoulder, as I explained. I attended and graduated Medical High School Prokopovic.
So what? Ali fought punch drunk with Holmes and Bebrick, Archie Moore fought till age 50 and so did Foreman, Frazier fought hald blinded and high blood pressure...and no one quit.

The greatest HWs Ali named were Joe Louis, Jack Johnson and Rocky Marciano.
You're so butthurt again hhhahaa...so much said you still said nothing fool. Medical Highschool Prokopovic, 4 years then 9 months as volunteer for free, just to inform you, my father also worked as a nurse there. Wonder if this help?
I’m not disputing Ali said all that, it’s just you claimed Ali never said that Liston was his hardest fight which he clearly did.
