    Ruiz and Bentt are two completely different caliber of fighters. Their losses are not even remotely comparable.

    both connect at the same time and knock each other out! :boxing1
    seriously, would be an interesting fight. joshua from the wlad fights? maybe? and, morrison only lost three times out of 52 fights, so there is that to consider.
    will go with morrison, mid rounds knock out.

    But both were totally unexpected and out of the blue, and by fighters that were given little or no chance.

    One was a first round KO by a discreet no-name who'd just barely scraped by a 14-18-1 clubfighter.

    The other was a 7th round stoppage, where both men were dropped, the loser avenged his loss, and the winner eventually became a top contender and is now a finalist in a championship tournament.

    One was clearly worse than the other.

    I agree!

    I think this would be a spectacular fight! Ofc it can go either way. But i think Tommy's agressive style is a mismatch for Joshua. His body punches, precise combos and monster left hooks will overstrain Joshua. Tommy is just too fast, too explosive. He will cut off the ring, dodge some punches, and roll right over him

    Wilder and Joshua ALWAYS do worse on ESB than they do in real life.

    I'd favour Joshua but Morrison's left hook would give him a punchers chance, Whyte rocked Joshua with a left hook. And the punch Ruiz discombobulated Joshua with was the left hook aswell. I could definitely see a scenario where Joshua goes in for the kill, and gets caught with a counter left hook from Morrison. But overall as i said i'd favour Joshua to win by stoppage, but it would be a dangerous fight for sure for Joshua.

    See your point s, Swag, but have to take in to account that Morrison whilst not a great fighter, was just as dangerous as Ruiz, some would say more.
    AJ s chin, has being exposed to a degree, and we know Tommy hits hard.
    If they were in together there's no way I could feel confident in his chin against a known banger.

    Joshua. Forty y/o Povetkin was better than Tommy.

    Joshua by stoppage, fairly easily in fact.

    Morrison also always does better than in real life, so everything is perfect! :D

    The Morrison that fought Foreman has a very good chance to knock AJs block off. Every other version of Morrison gets clipped and taken out.

    Get real.
    Ali was knocked on his arse with just 1 punch from a skinny cruiserweight like Cooper. Ali's chin is vastly overrated. Just like Tyson, Ali was great in his prime cause he wasn't getting hit.
    If he was hit with the punches Mercer hit Morrison, he'd have the same faith as Morrison.

    McCall had a great chin, but nobody can take what Morrison received. It's wasn't just 1 punch that he received, it was a dozen, and they were all hard and clean.
