Max Baer vs Tommy Morrison

I feel like Baer's boxing ability is underrated here.

 

This I can go with.

I agree that Baer had a great punch and a great chin. It's clear he had tremendous natural strength. It wouldn't be the first time that a Mercer decked a Damiani in a fight that he was losing, thanks to those attributes. So yeah, of course he has a chance.

However, all things considered I would favour the guy that has the skills and the power.

 

You watched the footage, right?

His ability is being overrated. His physical attributes are what made him, by and large, great.

 

thats simply not true, physical attributes would not be enough to make smoeone great at boxing.

 

The class dunce is back.

Hello, dunce!

Tell us your opinion. Go on, we're all VERY interested in what you have to say. Would you like a stick of gum while you think?

 

so its not enough for you to know you are wrong.

great comeback to being wrong, btw, throwing your toys outta pram again as usual.

 

Shush.

I'm watching George Foreman on Sanford and Sons on this thread:

Pipe down, now. Mr Foreman is talking.

You can tell us your opinion later. Go sit in the corner and practice it.

 

Foreman and Baer throw punches and combos with extremely similar mechanics.

 

when they fall, they fall hard.

 

More gum? That's right, fill that gob up.

 

You new Dum-dum. You give me gum-gum

 

Stop begging for my attention.

I'm done with your imbecilic intellect for today.

 

no word possible for your intellect if thats me relative to you.

so now u no give gumgum after offering it? cheap.

 

But he wasn't great.

 

What is great? If you mention the top heavyweights from his era, you'd have to mention him.

Is he a top 10 HW? Hells no. Not even top 20. In fact, I bet I could name 50 better heavies than Baer, and Morrison would be one of them.
