    6’9 and 270 who can fight for 12 rounds, I think it would have to be someone small and fast ( Tyson ) or someone who matches up.

    I like Lewis , Vlads big brother or even AJ.

    I think Ali, Holmes, Fraser etc all loose to Fury as he is at the moment.

    Liston wouldn’t have anything more than a punchers chance, he definitely wouldn’t intimidate him.
    Will be interesting to hear what guys like BattlingNelson and IronDanHamza have to say about this.

      Liston MAYBE lasts 5 rounds.

      It's gonna be the kinda sexual assault that got Weinstein 20+ years behind bars.

        The fact that people picked liston proves Corona virus is God's way of fixing his mistakes.

        Seriously, do any of you watch Boxing!?!?

          I read through some of this thread. It seems alot of them hanged their argument on Fury not being physically strong. That he couldn’t fight in close and bully people with his physicality. Well thats been proven wrong.

            I'd put money down most of them couldn't pick out Fury in a line up with African Pygmies.

            Cleveland "Glass Chin" Williams backed Liston up and kept him on the ropes.

            Ali was too strong for him.

            A guy the size of Beterbiev broke his jaw.

            He couldn't put Machen away.

            But we're to believe Fury struggles!?!?

            I guess Migual Canto beats Fury, too?

              Fury beats him easy. Mentally and physically, liston would get owned.

              He would probably fall down again from a fake punch.

                  Probably go with Fury.

                  Style favours Fury, similar reach but Fury has height, speed, movement on his side.

                  Liston's jab is great, as is Wlad Klitschko's. Fury's shown he can nullify a great jab. Albeit Liston would throw it more.

                  I think Fury wins a decision.

                    Can't argue against Fury now, anyone who does is an old time romantic.
