    With Morrison's chin I doubt it would last long at all. Lyle by first round knockout in a slugfest.

    Lyle does seem the tougher of the two.

    For sure ! I think it would go about six rounds. Level on points till about the third or fourth when Lyle starts landing his big shots.

    Lyle too tough physically, mentally & in the punch resistance deaprtment all round...too robust...Lyle by kayo in about 5 rounds...UNLESS Tommy gets on his bike a la the Foreman fight, it then MAY take longer...perhaps 8 or 9 rounds.

    I think Tommy has better than a sliver of a chance here, maybe 30% if he were focused and not partied-out like he was for Bentt. Tommy really did have excellent handspeed and elite power.

    But yeah, if my money is on the line, I'm taking Lyle.
