    Patterson is a good win Liston was coming off I agree with you but, I think with that kind of fight no other outcome was viable.

    I agree it was a great win just not up there with the others mentioned in my opinion.
    It's not really about age as it is mileage, I don't think age is an accurate measure in Liston's case. Granted, he could have been older in which makes age more significant.

    Yes, Patterson had a shaky chin and Liston was a puncher, but that doesn't negate the condition Liston was in. Cleveland Williams had plummeted dramatically when Ali fought him, yet that doesn't negate Ali being in his prime.

    I disagree, it does belong in a list of best single wins though Ali-Foreman is better. that's my opinion

      At the time of the fight even Ali thought Liston was around 40.

        I was being generous at "around 33" going by his so called age being born in 1932 when in reality he has been said to have been born in 1928 which would make him 36.

                Hopkins stopping Johnson is one of B-hops underrated wins imo
