Liston way before my time but what out of ring issues did he have??

Dude was LITERALLY in the mob.

Guy was known for showing up at people's doors if they owed money and beating the shxt out of them.

Guy used to always beat cops up.

Liston was the Tyson and foreman of his time, feared. People genuinely thought he was going to kill Cassius Clay in the ring the first fight. What he did to Patterson was fearsome. The real question of his career is what Liston would have done to Marciano had they fought, knowing Liston had over two stone and an 84 to 68 inch reach advantage

A major factor might gave been how each had dealt with adversity. Marciano had came from behind to win on a number of occasions.
Had Liston? It seems he quit against Clay so maybe he was an "on top" kind of fighter, like most bullies are?
Even so, I do think that Liston is often underrated when people rank ATG heavies
