Old Foreman hit Tommy so hard, he spun around like a beyblade. On a other occasion, he literally turned his back and ran from the old man. In yet another shocking moment, Foreman hit the Duke so hard his eye partially came out of his socket and Foreman backed off to let him try to treat it. Young Foreman wouldn't be so merciful. Tommy would be having a meltdown at the weigh in and goes full panic mode if he can't manage to end it with the first big left hook he lands. In some fights, Tommy's stamina and defense was even worse than Young Foremans. Outside of a puncher's chance, I don't see this ending any other way than Foreman by brutal KO in 2-3 rounds tops.
The Lyle fight proves Morrison can’t even get lucky. That was an inactive, out of sorts Foreman whom Lyle gave every reason in the world to succumb to self-doubt & rust & he gutted it out. This fight would not get sanctioned if anyone had a conscience. Foreman might actually kill him.
Tommy couldn't turn his back and run away from a 217 pound Foreman. Brutal stoppage that would make Ray Mercer blush.
