    Unforgiven you said young fighters ripped a whole in Morrison's ass? Lewis knocked down Morrison and kept getting up, Lewis knocked Tyson down and he stayed down so Tyson either has worse chin or has less balls.

    Wlad gassed out and that is the reason he got stopped? And you are telling me Morrison didnt gas out against Mercer and Lewis? And you said when ever Wlad got knocke down he got back up? Well in 2 of the 3 Morrison knockouts he was on his feet to so what is the deal?

    Unforgiven you said Morrison was just another white hope who was fed nobodies and has beens right? And who is Wlad beating? Blown up middleweights like Chris Byrds, fat overrated slobs like Sam Peter, and 6'6 pussies like Ray Austin. Neitehr fighter beat world class fighters.

    Morrison also fought in a better era too, even the old has been fighters are better than what Wlad is fighting. Morrison also left his self open and didnt train like he should of and was still only stopped 3 times. I am sure if Morrison would of fought passive like Wlad he would of been stopped less. I am also sure if Wlad would fight better opposition and open himself up more he would of been stopped more.

    Wlad seem afraid to throw a punch against Davaryll Williamson for crying out loud. Morrison would of ripped him a new one. Yet Wlad seem fearful and was hurt by a glancing punch and you are telling me his chin is better than Morrison?

    Tyson absorbed a lot more punishment from Lewis before going down. Tyson was also not a full time fighter at that time. Your points are so far off base Warren its crazy.

    If you say so. Tyson's really not relevant to the discussion.

    Good point. But Wlad is lucky then to be in this era.

    Yeah, you're right.
    Wlad is probably as crap as Morrison.

    I will say, Morrison had a style that had him getting hit a lot more than Wlad. He had to get much closer to opponets and had more of a brawling style. Its hard to compare but the only point that might be relevant is, whenever weve seen Wlad brawl a little he goes down in a heap. There is no doubt Morrison had a bad chin, but we will never know had bad Wlads is because he will never have to be in the same situations as Morrison was overall.
    To me Morrison didnt react as well as Wlad does to getting hit hard. Morrison usually froze, whereas Wlad seems to always get up stumbling.

    Given that both have shown a marked vulnerability in the chin department, I think it speaks volumes about how terrific they both are as offensive fighters in that they both accrued upwards or over 50 wins in their careers...and Handsome Wlad is still kicking ass and taking numbers with belts firmly wrapped around his waist. Say what you will, but that ain't bad!

    Waldo has never been KO"D! Morrison has. Tommys main problem was all the partying. Especially the nite b4 fights not that was an excuse 4 his chin.

    I think wlad has a worse chin,because wlad don't get hit very often he gets away from punches but the minute he gets tagged he is in big trouble

    A little harsh on Morrison, though he is the lesser fighter. And just to keep our facts correct, Tommy is noth wholesome white boy but is half Native American, as his mother Flosie is Otoe.

    The hell? Morrison was a decent boxer of note, but never a true champion...... His WBO claim is utter bull**** from 1993.........

    Wladdy Klit is WAY more in tune with reality as to being a legit world champion...........

    Chin for Chin, who knows???

    Fighter for Fighter, Klit is miles ahead of Morrison.........
    :deal:good:yep:thumbsup

    I say Morrison's chin was far worse than Vlad's. Vlad's chin isn't as bad as everyone says; it's just fair or average at best. It would take a serious puncher to expose Vlad's chin problems. Morrison, by contrast, could be hurt or stopped by lighter hitters.

    Look.... Morrison was indeed parked and damn near killed from both Mercer and Bentt, but Morrison also took the kitchen sink and the bar of soap in the process......... Just about any ******* whoever had the gloves on would've been KO'd from them punches that Mercer and Bentt landed on Morrison's jaw...... Those were pretty damn clean and wicked....
