    Who wins this fight between two hard hitting HWs with shaky chins? One thing's for sure, it doesn't go the distance.

    One thing is for certain. It goes the distance 10 out of 10 times with nobody getting hurt.

    A VERY Respectful Morrison OUTPOINTS Shavers, as he Did Geriatric George...

    Mostly BORING Fight, but when Morrison WANTED to Stay Away from Hard Punching PLODDERS like Shavers, he COULD...Shavers May Even Catch & DROP Morrison, but Tommy Accumulates Enough Rounds to Win a Decision Over 12...

    Shavers Likely GETS him Over 15 Though...

    I think shavers gets him out of there early... If he doesn't, I can see Morrison stopping him

    Morrison has a million more moves than Shavers, I think he stops him pretty easily.

    Either guy could easily get laid out here, but I think the chances of The Duke getting laid out are greater.

    Shavers by early KO.

    Yeah, but shavers chin wasn't all that either, and Morrisson was a ferocious puncher. Shavers didn't do well against punchers

    I don't see the evidence that Morrison did appreciably better against punchers than Ernie did
