    I'm not mentioning Foreman, I was saying that Liston had great, very underrated, stamina.

    Stamina never proven over a distance of more than 12 rds [,against Machen],and that only once.

    Good to see you refute it.....

    Thanks for the pm's btw, the offensive one was reported and the second one regarding a fight made me chuckle i must say.

    Tyson Homes and Foreman all have a decent chance.
    I reckon he'd give Baer a bad beating and only Max's chin keeps him in the fight
    Frazier is tailor made for Liston and Dempsey would fare little better.

    Liston beats Holmes on points.
    Liston knocks all the others out or referee stops the fight.

    Tyson and Frazier would be taken out inside 3 rounds.
    Dempsey might last until the 7th or 8th round.
    Foreman lasts maybe 7th or 8th round too.
    Baer at his best might stumble around and hang in there until around the 10th, with referee stopping the fight and ending a bloodbath.

    You have great imagination.

    All this based on beating a fragile glass like patterson, a 210 pounder bum big cat and being humiliated by a green clay.

    Mike Tyson-Liston KO 2
    Larry Holmes-Holmes UD
    George Foreman-Liston had the stamina and chin to take Foreman out. Liston 12 KO
    Joe Frazier-Liston TKO 4
    Jack Dempsey-Dempsey KO 2 (Pretty much like Firpo)
    Max Bear-Liston TKO 10
