Prime Liston vs Prime Tyson

[uncle ben]

Tyson would be too fast. Tyson was effectively a nuclear version of Patterson

[Mr.MojoRisin']

Listen from 58 to 62 and Tyson from 86 to 89 maybe?

That sounds about right

[HOUDINI563]

Holy proved himself as a warrior. The Klit brothers did not.

Liston was considered unbeatable after losing Patterson twice in single rounds. That's not the issue. Liston was shown to be shopworn vs Ali.

Ali never quit. More lies from the liar king. For shame.

[QueensburyRules]

--- Ali quit twice but for Dundee saving him, documented in stone...read it and weep thee for your hero.

[HOUDINI563]

Silly stuff you thought was reality 20 years ago. Sad you never progressed.

[QueensburyRules]

--- like Ali just fine, but reality was he weren't the greatest.

[HOUDINI563]

Most experts feel he was or at least very very close to it. Great boxer, extremely fast and TOUGH. VERY hard combination to beat.

LOL< That's so funny, Tyson couldnt beat Holyfield because he was too tough and a good all around fighter and smarter, Douglas beat him and he was a Poor man's Ali in Style, Ali had 10x of everything over Douglas, so Ali beats him Hands down, Liston Ko's him and so does Foreman, In Prime, Holmes weathers the assault and either wins via TKO or KO or UD. Louis also wins via decision or TKO, Frazier gets Knocked out, Bowe 50-50 chance, I give him a slight edge, Marciano Ko's him, Dempsey digs in and goes toe to toe using his speed and movement to land as Tyson throws and Ko's him, Jack Johnson, using his great Skills to do what Holyfield did to him, but LISTON 100% no doubt destroys him, LOL< anyone thinks otherwise should never post on boxing sites ever again, that one was easy.

Rspen threw down the gaunlet here.

Liston would outbox him. Late round stoppage or UD. Liston had one of the best jabs in boxing and was one of the hardest punchers ever. Tyson wouldn’t have the mental discipline to win, nor the physical ability.
