The young healthy morrison was a good fighter with a few flaws, i think he'd be a solid 3rd best h/w right now though
3rd best is probably right. No way he has a prayer against Vitali, but he didn't fight like a chicken **** scared ***** like a lot of heavyweights in today's era.... so that reason alone gives him a puncher's chance against Wladimir.
I think so too. He would even be dangerous for Wlad with his monster left. Of course Wlad would be the favorite, but Tommy would be dangerous.
I expect him to do very well, he could probably take some bogus WBA strap in the process. And like said, he has a punchers chance against Wladimir who would never get up from the hook Tommy hit Ruddock with (not many boxers would). Plus.... He was actually an exciting heavyweight, winning and losing.
A Prime Morrison should be favoured over every current heavyweight, excluding the K bros. I can see him KO'ing Povetkin for the "Regular" WBA joke title.
Morrison on steroids was a beastly athlete, but very beatable, his chin wasn't that great and he could be hit with a big shot. Besides the Klits, I think Haye and Arreola would beat him, I'd favor Povetkin over him too.
He was exciting fighter with a ringer of a left hook. However, he was no better than most of the fighters today. He'd do about just the same as he did in his career as he would today. There is no solid bet on this guy and his chin was mega-suspectable. The Bros would have found that mark easy. The rest? He'd be an on and off champ with a lot of exciting fights.
Who knows... ever since he admitted steroid use its hard to know what part of his career was actually him(natural)....That **** always puts a persons career into question...for me atleast.
True. I really like Tommy's style etc. But taking PEDs means that I don't give a flying %¤&# about their accomplishments. This goes for someone like Toney too.
