Quite possibly. I suppose theres no point in debating too much cuz we will never know but I just think guys that small wouldnt be able to absorb the power from a guy like Liston even if they could keep him off for a few rounds.

I agree if Sonny was around today he would rule things . Wvlad would be his toughest challenge based on his physical advantages but judging on the guys who have knocked out Wvald , I think Liston could aswel .
