I'm not saying that Ruddock was a weak puncher, I just hold McCall higher. Maskaev, Damiani, Seldon, in addition to Lewis, he also was the only man to ever knock out Akinwande. LOL McCall stopped Lewis straight up, "only wobbled Lewis a little bit", and what did Ruddock do? McCall stopped guys that had never been stopped before whereas Ruddock stopped overweight/aging fighters like Smith and Dokes. I like Donovan but I don't think his punch is better than the Atomic Bull's.
And Lewis was more dangerous than Michael Bentt but one of them went 7 rounds with Lewis while the other got sparked in 1 by Bentt
Ruddock never nailed Lewis, you haven`t seen Ruddock fight, Bruno was not a harder puncher than Ruddock.
I never said Bruno was a harder puncher than Ruddock, but at this point? Yeah sure why not. I'm a Ruddock fan... I've seen him fight and knock out guys from Gross to Odum, lol.
Massive fan of all three fighters. I think Bruno beats Morrison but I'd not rule out Tommy outworking Bruno, maybe even getting on his bike a la Foreman fight. Tommy could box, he just chose not to most of the time. If the fight goes late and yeah, sure, it's a cliche, but Bruno starts to worry and Tommy finds a home for his big left hook.... Oh, and for me, Bruno, Morrison and Ruddock all hit harder than the anvil on legs that is McCall. Ruddock was a tough, tough guy in his (brief) prime and I genuinely think Tommy and Frank get a lot of unwarranted bad press on here.
Depends which Morrison shows up. If the zoned in and well trained Morrison that fought Foreman shows up… he knocks Bruno out within 4-5 rounds. If the Morrison that partied throughout 80% of his training camp like the Lewis and Bentt fights shows up… could go either way.
Excellent points. McCalls punch power is greatly underestimated. He has some wonderful scalps on his record very diverse fighters of noted quality. Akinwande,Damiani,Maskaev,and the legendary Lewis. You also mention his squashing of Seldon.
Maybe but you can`t compare fighting Lewis to fighting Bentt, Lewis would have toyed with Tommy no matter how hard he trained.
