    Well, there were both media creations brought to you by Bill Cayton and Co.

    Just the small fact that Tyson had a decent chin !
    Morrison's chin was a joke.

    He probably paid someone to inject it.
    Suge Knight perhaps.

    Morrison never KO'd anyone near Tyson's level with that vaunted hook of his. And if anyone brings up a stale Ruddock, they should go to the back of the line.

    I think you're onto something there.

    Maybe Bruno and Seldon were threatening to take a dive too?

    Tyson likely wins, but Tyson didn't fight many punches with chins in the 1990's or many very durable boxer types, did he? In fact what dangerous puncher did Tyson face in the 1990's and please don't say Ruddock, who beaten by Lewis and Morrison in a shorter amount of time,

    Morrison wasn't a scared to fight type, he just was cursed with a chin of 2 weight classes below heavyweight. If Morrison was around today, he might be 2nd best behind Povetkin. or 3rd if Wlad hasn't become too old.

    No, he did not. However Morrison beat Foreman in the 1990's, which is likely better than anyone Tyson beat in the decade.

    In addition to beating Ruddock faster, Morrison also made shorter work of Thomas, and Tills. Yeah they were older. Just saying the man could punch. No one says differently.

    It would take a racist to think Morrison could do anything other than publicly take a nap in under three minutes against Tyson.

    Or likely not. It wasn't quite a Caracas Foreman that he was running away from for 12 rounds.

    Alright. To the end of the line.
