    The difference between Carl and Mormeck is that Carl beat elite fighters before whereas Mormeck only beat B- level fighters, no one really elite. Bell was a nobody untill he beat Mormeck and we all know what happened to him after.

    Bell was a great fighter, so skilled! He seemed unbeatable until Mormeck beat him in the rematch. Bell is another former Undisputed CruiserWeight Champion of the World!!! And on even level of Mormeck.

    I'm sure I had Eubank winning that first fight with Thompson, thinking back....and that was a crap version of Eubank too. Haye would have most likely permanently damaged the guy in a rematch, it was going that way in the first fight until Haye ran out of gas.

    Thompson was a good fighter, no doubt about that but he wasn't great.

    Thompson was only getting the worst of it over the first 3 rounds.

    Some people talk like Thompson took some prolonged beating until Haye suddenly ran out of gas.

    The Thompson fight was how many years ago now??

    Look, Thompson is a good fighter but Haye has faced better men.
