    Dokes lack of foot-speed is his downfall in this one, I reckon. Tommy catches up with him too quick, and gets Dokes out of there. Morrison pre-AIDS was a really good offensive fighter, he just had incredibly poor stamina and chin. If he doesn't get Dokes out of there early, he exploits those weaknesses.

    Morrison early TKO is my pick.

    Dokes by 5th round TKO. The handspeed was no joke.

    I went with Dokes. Tough durable boxer with fast hands who could go fifteen rounds and occasionally crack when he had to.

    Dokes had the occasional out of the gate blaze that could catch a soft chinned guy like Morrison like he did Weaver 1 and Ball .. however if Tommy is not caught early I think he may decision Dokes ..

    Dokes by Easy UD. Tommy could never catch up with him.
