    How long does Moorers southpaw style buy him?

    one or two rounds. Moorer never lasted long with anyone who could punch.

    I looked through Moorer's record to find some hope for him, but, alas, there was none. He could deal with punchers by K them TFO first, but against Foreman's chin ... lol ... he might make the 3rd round if he's lucky. Prime Foreman is going to bring too much pressure, end of story.

    Don't get me wrong, Moorer was pretty good boxer. As was Norton. They could give hell to the best HW pure boxers of all time and even beat them under the right circumstances.

    But put them against young Foreman or Tyson? Early KO every time
