I cannot believe this terrible thread has reached THREE pages. I thought posting the Bentt win over Morrison would kill it immediately. I blame that buffoon PK :-(
Morrison hurt Lewis, he hurt Mercer, he survived Foreman. Haye might win, but to say Morrison has no chance is ridiculous, he would be a very real threat.
To be honest, it's a question of who hits who on the chin first. I think Haye is the more durable of the two, though I think Morrison can certainly one-shot him, the reverse is certainly true also. As has been mentioned, Morrison performed better against the more ponderous/cumbersome HW's of his era, and his win list isn't particularly impressive. Blasted inside a round by Bentt, albeit in a fight that he ought to have won inside the first round if he'd actually had an ounce of ring IQ.... and later executed by Lewis in a pretty brutal hiding. Given that Haye is pretty fleet of foot and has fast hands, I'd wager that David lands first, puts Tommy down. Much like Bruno, once Morrison was hit, he stayed hit.... David's sloppy finishing wouldn't really be an issue here. I'd say Haye TKO2, pretty tenatively mind.
"Razor Ruddock"......i got them mixed up, you would see this if you read my other posts! I posted Razor Ruddock. Stop quoting me, you No Mark. Go and join Cheek Hook Boxing.
1. You have to look at it from a resume point of view- 2. What would happen if Morrison had Hayes fights and Haye had Morrison fights- 3. Then a head to head based on style- 1. Resume wise- Haye has Mormeck, Valuev, Ruiz, Chisora Losses to C. Thomspon, W. Klitschko Morrison has P. Thomas, J. Tillis, C. Williams, George Foreman, D. Ruddock. Draw against Puritty, Lost to Mercer, Bentt, L. Lewis Resume wise its pretty even, Haye possibly edges it due to being a two weight champ (despite WBA being a paper belt at the time) Morrison has a bad loss to Bent, and a draw with Puritty. Overall Tommy mixed it with higher competition. 2. If Haye went through Morrison run of fights youd have to expect him to come unstuck after knocking out all the low level journeyman when he comes up against a Tillis or P. Thomas....i predict the Thomas fight. As we all know Haye was very gung ho, its only after his first loss he became slightly more wary. Then another series of low journeyman then faces R. Mercer for the WBO, I believe Mercer wins this but late on, possibly stopping a pot shotting Haye in the 9th or 10th round. Then Haye will go on another series of fight that Tommy had, and i belive would smash C. Williams early, out box G. Foreman on points beat Bentt, another series of fights then lose to both Lewis and Ruddick. Ending with a 48-4 record where in reality Morisson ended with a 48-3-1 record- If Tommy went through Haye competiton I believe he run through everyone, including C. Thompson, Mormeck etc and possibly coming unstuck against a Barret type....a gung ho Morrison getting caught early. Then goes onto beat Valuev, Ruiz, Harrison getting outboxed against Wlad but giving Wlad a better fight, then beating Chisora- Again Morrison ending with the same record as Haye 26-2 So of who they faced, again its pretty tight, Morrison I feel beats the better comp overall either way but you have to factor he would lose to a low level guy like he did with Bentt due him being to aggresive. Head to head, both at there best, I believe Morrison catches Haye late on or if they fought 10 times Morrison wins it 6 to 4-
Morrison would only be beaten by Wladimir Kiltschko. Haye vs Morrison would be one of the most exciting fights of the 90's, i think it would last 5 rounds tops! Both guys being hurt.
Indeed you did evoke Ruddock earlier in the thread, so I find it quite bizarre that you should make such an embarrassing error later in the thread. So in order to check the accuracy of any future posts you make we are required to refer to previous posts? No, as I said before "get your facts right" before posting. Have you figured out how to post YouTube links yet (that white square did little to enhance your zealot like support of Morrison) LOOK I can do it and I'm a "no mark" puportedly. [yt]Sit01F0zPc0[/yt] I will quote whoever and whatever I wish, including you. From the little I've seen of that place it would be better suited to a 'character' like you. Who knows, they may even let you start threads? (something you can't do here I believe, I wonder why?)
