    He also said he'd feared Joe Frazier in his own autobiography. But Big George says a lot of complimentary things I don't think he legitimately means.

      Yeah he seems like a very nice man, when talking about the Ali fight he said he was greatful to Ali because when Foreman was on his way to hitting the canvas Ali had the chance to punch him on the way down but chose not to.

        George Foreman's arms are smaller in comparison with Listons. That 84 inch reach is really amazing.
        Liston also had huge hands.I mean HUGE.

        He had to have special gloves made for him,because his hands and fists were to big to fit in a normal glove.

Liston simply destroyed his opponents and when Ali beat him it was because he was the better man. I've heard conspiracy theories on both Ali fight and neither hold water and are easily debunked in my opinion. Being a bad guy and having associations doesn't automatically make a fighter corrupt. Wise guys have always hovered around boxing.
          In what ways could the ALi fight theories be debunked?
