    I came up with this idea when i watched tommy fight vaulin. vaulin was a light punching cruiser and a southpaw. he ratteled tommy several times with his straight left and one was left wondering if a guy with a bit more steam might have stopped tommy right then and there.

    so here comes a fast, hard punching southpaw for tommy in the form of sanders.

    but tommy has his chances too, being probably stronger and having the pop to put the also china chinned sanders out.

    so who will it be??

    personally, i think that morrison is the better, more athletic fighter. but in this constellation i have to go with sanders. he wouldnt be able to miss morrison with that left.

    sanders drops him at the end of round one, then finishes him in round two.

    opinions please.

    Morrison is the more skilled fighter and IMO can take this one provided he keeps Sanders busy.

    thing is the fight would play out that "only a matter of time scenario" where Tommy come out fast, somewhat elusive and lands combinations dictates the pace of the fight but gets caught with a straight left and never recovers...

    Well morrison is known for his incredible power, and a very weak chin too lol. So that leads to spectacular ko's going either way. But i would say morrison wins, ud. Remember he beat george foreman, an atg. Although he was like 50 and had his mind on his grills more than boxing.

    Morrison KO5, Sanders would get bullyed by Morrisons strength and relentless attacks. The workrate would be too much and Tommy gets to him and finnishes him in 5

    I Say Sanders Blitzes Tommy At This Late Stage In Their Careers. Morrison Is One Of The Few Guys Who Has Had Less Fights Than Sanders In The Last 10 Years

    I'll take Sanders to beat him worse than Lewis did. I'm not saying Sanders is better than Lewis, I think he can find Tommy easily with his left. Since Sanders' left is his power hand, once he landed enough it would be over.
