How would you rate Sonny Liston's power in comparrison with Foreman's or Ernie Shaver's punching power? Also Liston had a very powerful jab,- did Liston have the hardest jab in the history of boxing?. Later brother brologs.

Liston was a monstrous puncher but he didnt hit as hard as foreman or shavers , he did hit harder than ken norton who was also a huge puncher , thats what ali reckons anyway .

Liston was very powerful and also had quick hands in his prime. I'd rate his power 9/10. Lethal by anyone's standards but still less than what Foreman or Shavers could do. Comparable to Tyson I'd say.

he weighed under 200 pounds sometimes , he was a cruiser in today standars

Liston was a very heavy puncher, but not quite as foremann.

Yeah your correct he could knock people with his jabb.

He's the first guy i've heard that could knock somebody with a jab. A JAB!

Liston weighed under 200 lbs for one fight early in his career and after that he was 200+. His best weight was around 210. As for him being a cruiserweight, that can't be further from the truth. He was heavily built in both the legs and upper torso. All around a monstrous physique. He also had the largest fists of any heavyweight champion at 15". He was no cruiserweight.
