    Not sure if this belongs here, but I thought some of you might enjoy this as he fought not that long ago.

    Very cool video reznick. I actually saw this last night. That left hook of his was nuclear. LOVED the one he almost killed Ruddock with. Guy had a lot of talent but just couldn't stay focused and on the right track.

    Nice work. I especially loved your work on Willie Pep and George Foreman.

    Remember what i said about short hanged banged from multiple chains not just one long one coming from center ? This produces better power punching bc of less swing and weight taking off the bag when theres less chain on it. Take a look at that red bag ,thats a DECENT hanging bag.

    Morrison could fight he just wasn't disciplined enough. You can't carry yourself outside the ring like he did and be able to function at a high level.

    lol I love how you pointed that out.
    I feel like I would really like a bag like that. Often I can’t throw combos on heavy bags because the first two or so punches will make it swing. The four chains keeps it in place huh?

    nice video.

    a real shame how he ended up. I mentioned him on some other forums when he died and was shot down with a load of comments on how he was to blame etc. doesnt matter at the end of the day, it was and still is a tragic story.

    Do you know which forum it was?
    I heard them mentioning it in the documentary. Me and some other guys were trying to figure it out.
