    I think a cautious Morrison, could move around & throw short combo's to try & control the tempo. simular to the Foreman bout. He could get by with a decision win. provided there isn't a big exchange of power punches. Then it could be anybodies guess.

    Obviously anything could happen here.

    If I had to put money down I would probably go with Morrison simply of the ground that he delivered more at world level against world class opposition than Sanders.

    Simply put he is the less likley of two weak links to break.

    Tommy when he wanted to could be a good boxer. If he fights like he did against Foreman against Sanders, I can see him winning via mid round stoppage when Sanders starts to tire. But he would need to withstand the early assault, which isn't a given.

    I lean toward Morrison if he has the right gameplan.

    Exactly. Could he get thru the early rounds. Sanders has the definite speed advantage and a southpaw.
