    brutally destroyed by who?

    Mormeck may have been undisputed champ but really when you see his fights, he is very very basic and relies alot on his strength and toughness, which he would be lacking at HW

    He's huffing and puffing at Cruiserweight. At Heavyweight he'll have a coronary!

    I think he does 200lbs well I think it would be unessersary to risk it with the big guns. He has decent power but is slow and has terrible stamina, the extra weight will go against him.

    Overral I cant see him doing well against the top 15 at heavy tbh, he should get back in the mix at cruiser.

    Mormeck honestly has to be the worst Undisputed Champion I have ever seen. Mormeck can throw a lot of punches for 6 rounds, then he is totally done. A championship fight is 12 rounds!!

    I think Mormeck's aggressive gun blazing style at Heavyweight would be suicide!

    Watching Adamek vs Bell, made me re-evaulate how good Bell and Mormeck are.

    Adamek totally schooled him, it was easy. Bell is only 32 also . I don't think Bell or Mormeck are anywhere near as good as people thought they were.

    David Haye was the best of a very poor lot, and barely. Mormeck nearly knocked him the **** out.

    It's rather dangerous to assume that O'Neil Bell on one day = O'Neil Bell on another day.

    I don't think Bell was ever very good I just think he had Mormeck's number. Mormeck I think would do alot better then Bell vs Adamek.

    Mormeck is shot.

    HW would be suicide at this point, maybe at one time, but now, never

    Mormeck would be absolutely crushed at heavyweight.

    JMM wouldn't do that great in HW sene. His age is getting up, but I still think he still has a few Cruiserweight fights left. Like somone here said, his stanima isn't the greatest so that would be bad for him. His power is pretty good tho, but I don't think he could hang with the heavys. Where has JMM been hiding? I herd a potential Fabrice Tiozzo fight, but seems like it was written off. Hopefully he returns to the ring sometime soon.

    I still think Mormeck would beat some top fighters in cruiser. He would probably KO Enzo Mac imo.

    Damn, Mormeck is well underrated here to an extent you make him out to be a club fighter. This place is ****ing mental. Do some analysis.


    note; I dont think he would fare that well at HW, but he would be a top 20. His frame and mobility is ideal for cruiser, that is all.

    Care to elaborate any? What makes Mormeck so great.

    Mormeck is a good pressure fighter, but he tires very badly. He can only fight half of a fight for christ sake, and that is not an exaggeration! He has a good chin for Cruiserweight, but an average punch. It takes Mormeck many punches to wear down opponents. However, I think his aggressive style would be a total disaster at Heavyweight.
