    Who wins in theory? Adam Kownacki or Tommy "The Duke" Morrison? Why? (Tommy in his prime)

    Morrison wasn't great, but he was pretty darn good. Kownacki is tough, but not very skilled. I'd favor Morrison at this point, with Kownacki potentially getting better and surpassing Morrison.

    Tommy knocks him the **** out. Too fast. Too power and Kownacki is easy to hit. I'd pick Tommy after a coke bender to leave Kownacki in the dust. He was simply a far more talented fighter. Kownacki in his best night catching Morrison on a bad one might be able to have a Joe Hipp kind of night.

    Kownacki just went 12 with the corpse of Arreola in a relatively competitive fight. Hes already peaked. Definitely not getting better. If a peak Kownacki is going life and death with Martin, Arreola and got busted up by Kiladze he's never going to come close to surpassing Morrison.

    Bentt honestly had more skill than Kownacki. Faster hands, better movement. Kownacki is more comparable to Joe Hipp.

    THE DUKE either knocks him out early or then wins by points /../

    I'm giving Kownacki the benefit of the doubt; but yes, I think realistically he would get dusted. However I underestimated Andy Ruiz and look who's champ right now.

    Tommy KOs him. Kownacki's tough but he ain't taking the beating that Mercer took before the KO.

    Morrison KO3

    Everytime I pick Morrison to win a fight there's always this nagging suspicion that he'll be knocked out if the opponent stays upright

    The Polish sausage is a feather fisted arm puncher who gets hit with every punch in the book.......he would take a viscous beating against the Duke.....Morrison had real snap, had fast hands and could really crack especially with the left hook and the Duke would have made quick work of the ghost of a ghost of Arreola.......as a matter of fact , Goosen would not let Arreola near Morrison.
