    Foreman inside 5 rounds. Morrison has an early punchers chance, but its curtains for him as soon as Foreman lands a good one. Post Zaire, Tommy has a much better chance.

    Check out Tommy's boy, Trey Lippe. He's 6-0, 6KO's. I'm not sure Trey Lippe has stamina or can take a punch yet, but his left hook and hand speed is outstanding. A near carbon copy equal of Tommy himself. Trey seems to have his head on right, with good athletic ability. He's 2 years away from facing a good journeyman.

    Foreman via jaw shattering knockout. Foreman would storm towards Morrison and say "Feel the power of Foreman!" and then SMASH.....a crushing left hook to Morrison's jaw.

    The more I have watched their actual match, the more I score it a draw.

    Prime George would think he was Rocky Balboa beating up Tommy Gunn in the movie, but Morrison is no Gunn. The Duke gets outgunned by Foreman, KO 3. Too much artillery.

    Foreman by very brutal KO. Tommy could try and run but George cuts him off and when Morrison try s hooking back, he's in the s**t. Foreman stops him in 3.

    Agreed. Horrible match up for Morrison, George would have walker thru him.

    You could get an insight that makes a very good case for the underdog. That's the beauty of it. Besides, everyone knew that Tyson would blow out Douglas.

    Upsets are a part of boxing but really can not see Morrison winning this one

    Both Tommy and Moorer would have been young George's chew toys.
