Vitali, and it's not a problem for him. Massive size advantage, granite chin, boxing skills- they all conspire to make a bad night for Liston.

Agree and the likely outcome for Vitali to beat Liston was by out-boxing him behind his long jabs and right hands to take a decision.

X3. Liston would lack elusiveness to deal with Klitschko's jabs and one-twos, he wouldn't get to him.

Liston's jab was probably longer and definitely better. Sonny by Dec or tko.
