          How can you have beef with an ancient fighter is beyond me. He was a great champion.
          Going down from a phantom punch? Quitting? Only ever beating one smaller guy who didn't have a good chin? Convict? Heroin addict?

            Not sure what being a convict and heroin addict has to do with his status as a champion tbh, Freedom.

            Wlad can speak multiple languages and travels the world helping children. Didn't help him throw more than two right hands on Saturday night.

              Liston was cutting down contenders in brutal fashion for years before he was given the opportunity vs Patterson.

              Think of the GGG situation now.

              He does not deserve to be on this list.

                  I say Rahman, but Spinks and Briggs are just as bad.

                  Moorer had a ****ty title run, but he was a still a top talent. It's a shame he didn't have the passion or work ethic, as Emmanuel Steward said.

                  Not sure why Liston is on the poll. And I don't know enough about Carnera or Willard to have an opinion about them, so I'm not gonna pretend to be a boxing historian.

                    I am not going to get in a debate with you because it is not worth it. But you seriously need to learn more about Liston's career and actually watch more of him, he was a tremendous fighter. Where are talking about fighting, Liston is so underrated by some.

                      the worst long tenured HW champion of all time is wladimir klitschko.
