Sonny Liston vs Mike Tyson Overall

Experts Predicted Outcome: Liston’s favor 4-0
Jim Carney Liston KO late
Moontan Liston 6-KO
Frank Lotierzo Liston
Cox’s Corner Liston KO[/QUOTE]

All of the analysis from these sources in the first page of the thread are IMHO spot on! First of all, Liston would NOT be intimated by Tyson, which takes away from Mike a major intangible. (If anything it would be Sonny doing the intimidating with that baleful staredown!) Then factor in Liston's tremendous reach advantage, a left jab that could bust concrete, thundering KO power in both hands, and overall boxing skill (Sonny is not given enough credit for being a very good technical fighter)---ultimately that's just too much for Tyson to deal with even during his peak years. I go with Sonny in an 8th round KO.
