You have to favour any puncher as big as Tommy over MM.... but your moneys never completely safe with morisson
I don't know. Moorer has his own chin issues which gives Tommy a great chance but I think Moorer has enough guile to take it long and stop him later on a la Botha just way more spectacularly.
I'm kinda with Irish, but I could see an early Morrison KO. But if Tommy doesn't end Moorer inside of 3-4, then I think Moorer stops him in 6-8. Either way, the chances of this fight seeing the late rounds are slim.
Would have been a great fight. Hard to look past the fact that Moorer WAS a 175lbr who lost to a guy Duke beat Funny when you look at guys who couldn't actually improve on Morrissons result vs that Foreman, there's loads of them. Holyfield, Moorer, Schulz, Cooney {what was left of him} Briggs, Savarese, Stewart, Bert Cooper. Tommy was like the fat nerd in school had 1 baseball card. Of Honus Wagner. From 1909.
I would actually make Moorer a slight favorite knowing how Tommy fared against southpaws like Hipp and Vaulin. Of course, if Moorer was an orthodox fighter, he gets Tua'd
Yeah, Moorer in his brief prime is a slight favorite, the guy who sleep walked for half a minute against Tua obviously gets iced
Ehhh, I don't really see either as the favorite. Tommy did a helluva lot better against Foreman, for example. Tommy also has a win over Ruddock, and I wouldn't pick Moorer over Ruddock in a million years. If Holyfield isn't having heart problems, then Moorer doesn't have a big win. This is a dead even fight, but Tommy is more likely to win it on one punch. Moorer would have to string together some combos to take out Morrison, but Morrison could literally end Moorer with one left hook.
