Liston had some huge fists for sure.

I read that UFC fighters actually have huge hands and bones compared to boxers. Brock Lesnar and Shane Carwin both had to wear XXL gloves they had huge hands.

Fist size and in inches

The ideal size for a boxer's fist is measured in terms of proportions of finger to nostril. Floyd fairs quite well with this regard.

With UFC they train a lot in grappling and usually have an extensive wrestling background or ju jit su. Having a powerful grip is part of the trade. Listons fist were definitely massive haha
