    Why use bouble question marks for Rocky? If he couldn't beat Ali, he sure as hell couldn't beat Marciano :lol:

    Of course! I was only injecting a bit of humour into this.

    Marciano might have a hard time bulling Liston. If he can't, he might lose.

    He didnt need to go 15, he knocked everyone out ;)



    Liston went 12 very hard paced rounds with eddie machen. In fact it was the some of the best show of stamina between 2 heavyweights in a 12 round fight I have seen

    It's hard to pick a winner for a lot of those and I don't really feel like trying right now. I wouldn't give any of them better than 50/50 odds, though. Liston is H2H one of my top 5 heavyweights.

    have you seen the fight? the workrate both shown far exceeds what heavyweights today do.

    Liston quits in his corner against half of them, and knocks the other half out in the first round.

    George Foreman - has a good chance against George, could stop him

    Rocky Marciano - Marciano chops him down

    Joe Frazier - he stops Frazier

    Larry Holmes - Holmes outclasses Liston, you're gunna findo out who's got the classiest jab in HW history, and Liston wont like the movement

    Joe Louis - Louis stops him

    Mike Tyson - Tyson stops him

    Jack Dempsey - Liston probably wiins, but im picking Dempsey cos i like him!!!
