    I'm inclined to say the first person that lands wins, but... what do you guys think?

    No wrong answers: they fought 10 times both men get knocked out at least 3 times in under 3 rounds.

    My GUT tells me that Shavers gets to him first..Michael Bentt style.

    I think Shavers gets there first, but clearly Morrison is a live underdog

    Shavers is the better one punch bomber, but I suspect Morrison's quicker hands will allow him to get off first. I can easily see Morrison getting to Shavers first, and then Shavers landing something huge as Morrison tries to finish him off.

    I see this fight ending by way of second round double knockout.

    Have cdogg and b-joe ever disagreed on, "anything?" at all? and if not? does anyone want to weigh in on what the probability is they agree on everything?

    I once thought that they were "bum chums", but now i realize that they are not...it's just that they both have bias towards the Fab 4, the top opponents of the fab four (benitez, Mugabi etc), and the old timers.

    So when you share a bias you tend to agree on most matchups.

    Nothing wrong with having a bias though....we all have it and he without sin cast the first stone.

    I tend to be biased towards speedy, elusive, slick fighters admittedly (Jones, Mayweather, Hopkins, Nunn, Clay).

    I wonder what probability is that you ate a dick just before you wrote this retarded message? Probably pretty high.

    What's awesomely lame is you have stooped to parroting Sly. If you want to make things up about people that know more than you about this sport, you could at least make up your own stupid shit rather than copy someone else's stupid shit.

    And, tiny brain, cdogg and I don't agree on everything. We have had many spirited debates. We do agree a lot, because we both deal with facts, which you would know nothing about because your posts rarely contain any facts.

    So, swing and a miss yet again. But thanks for playing.

    Translation: "blah, blah, blah....I will say anything, no matter how retarded."

    I am NOTHING like you as a poster. I am a fan of the truth and you are biased beyond words.

    You're such a fucking dumb-ass.

    If I wanted facts I wouldn't come here. And that's not an indictment of this place. It's recognizing that in here, everything is opinion. You might think yours are sewn up better than everyone else's, but that's mostly because you're a close-minded dumb-fuck, not because you can craft good arguments.

    As I see it, cdogg has a good head on his shoulders, and manages to make his points without getting defensive and personal as you do. Maybe y0ou should follow your idol's lead.

    Whoa..cunt. I never said that you are like me as a poster. I'm just saying that everyone has biases. You would claim that I am biased and you are not...but that's the type of dishonest self righteous fool that you are.

    You see it's acceptable to have bias towards guys like Robinson, Leonard, Hagler, hearns, Pep etc....and so you would simply call that "accepting facts" or some shit. But to think that guys like Jones, Mayweather, Hopkins etc are on that level...that's suddenyl deemed as bias.

    That's why it's so difficult for anyone with an opposing view to yours to have a straight mature boxing converstaion with you.

    If you disagree with them you just babble "shilling for your favourites", "bias towards mayweather", "you only started watching boxing in the 80s", "you got that off boxrec"..or some other tiresome stupid broadwayjoe shit.

    Obviously you don't care about the facts, that shows in nearly every post you spew out and subject the forum members to. And like most who don't know what they are talking about, you have fallen back on the chicken-shit stance that it's all opinions and every opinion is equal, no matter how wrong or biased yours may be.

    Nice try, pea brain, but it's not even true...but keep saying it if it makes you feel better about yourself. What I say to you is the truth, and you can't stand that. Here's what happens, you post biased crap, you get called on it (and not just by me)....and then you post crap similar to your latest post.

    BTW..nice job by you and Double of wrecking this topic. I wasn't talking to either one of you here and yet both of you idiots have taken it upon yourself to pick a fight. Good job, asswipes.

    Wait. So your opinions are more factual than mine? Is that what you're saying?

    My opinions on the sport are based in fact and yours are based on whatever you have pulled out of your ass on any given day.

    yes

    for example:

    Lennox Lewis KO1 Joe Hipp is a far more informed opinion than Joe Hipp KO1 Lennox Lewis

    wouldn't you agree?

    certainly an opinion backed up by informed scholarship would have to be considered superior and of a higher nobility than one backed up by nothing other than an individual's right to have an opinion, no?
