    Braddock outpoints him or stops him late.

    Far superior chin and conditioning to Braddock and Tommy's parachute opens at some point.

    Braddock late stoppage. Tommy beats him like a drum and drops him early

    Morrison would be way too overwhelming of a opponent for braddock, I think braddock is underrated on this forum but against a on game Morrison this fight doesnt last 4 rounds and I'm being generous when I say that.

    Mentally braddock was one of the toughest champions of all time, but he lacked the physical tools aside from a iron jaw.

    What the **** are people on about here? Braddock was only stopped by a near perfect Joe Louis and he himself was past prime. He had a great chin and managed to drop Louis and beat Baer

    That's better than Morrisons record.

    Yeah, I don't get all these "Tommy in 4" replies. Braddock was very tough, I don't see him being stopped that early.

    You always pick the most recent heavyweight! Pick an old timer for once!
