Who ya got ranked higher Liston or Tyson?

Minus Jack Johnson, I'd say that's one of the best HW lists I've seen.

 

This top 20 list by The Ring has them both top 10 and next to each other: https://www.ringtv.com/488242-ring-greatest-heavyweight-time/

 

Tyson rates above Sonny .Tyson ,in a nutshell did more ,was more successful on the world stage. Now we could say that's because Liston started later ,didn't have the fanfare that Tyson had becoming a pro and had the misfortune of meeting a young Fella called Cassius in his second defense .Tyson didn't come across anyone like that early on so had the chance to defeat contender's and thus make à name for himself .
But head to head ?Hard hard fight .

 

I'd accept either.

 

Thanks. This is the full list (though note the criteria)

H2H Sonny

 

I dont see any case for Liston being ranked above Mike.

Mike had a longer, more dominant reign and beat better, BIGGER fighters.
