No. Liston was a genuine 6'1''. evander never ever was 6'3''. evander was listed as 6'1'' all the way through his crusier weight career then "became" 6'2 and a half for his HW debut. later (after shaving his hair off) he "grew" yet another half inch on the "tale of the tape" stats. evander is most likley 6 foot.

This is very true Liston is FAR bigger than Holy naturally - I don't think Holy would be able to cope with an aggressive Liston - Liston's huge strength and power in all of his fights was too much for all his opponents no matter who they were or whatever the outcome - all the fights I've ever watched of Liston it always seems unfair on the other guy the advantage in strength and power he had over everyone and it would be no different here Liston would advance continually and trouble Evander with that ramrod jab - Liston would would I think finish what Riddick Bowe almost finished in Bowe-Holyfield I - Evander would get knocked bandy - I think watching Holyfield-Foreman it is clear that Foreman would as a young man have far too much power and strength for Holy and probably beat him quite conclusively - I think Liston is better than Foreman so I think Sonny beats Holy hands down
