How do you think? Is Bennts TKO1 win of Morrison better than any of Wilders wins? Don't underestimate Morrisons boxing skills. He was tough kid who fought over 300+ amateur fights and did pretty well in pro ring too. Only drugs and night clubs disturbed his boxing career.
Well Morrison did beat a former and future linear heavyweight champion in Foreman can any of Wilder's opponents claim the same?
Morrison would rate higher than anyone Wilder has beaten. His best wins are Stiverne, Scott, Duhappas, and Szpilka and I'd rate Morrison higher than all of them even though Stiverne wouldn't be too far behind him. In a head to head match up though I think Stiverne is a bad match up for Morrison and see that as a 50/50 type of fight. Stiverne has a good chin, good power, and can counter some that's trouble for someone like Morrison. Despite being a good heavyweight Morrison was inconsistent and had some big flaws. He lost to Bennt and drew with Purrity. He had major trouble with Hipp and an aging Williams in fights he won, all these fights were at/close to Morrison's peak. Besides Stiverne being an even fight for Morrison I also think he could trip up against a guy like Duhappas or even Szpilka but I'd pick him to win those fights.
Yes. Michael Bentt's first round knockout of Tommy Morrison is better than any of Deontay Wilder's wins. It's also better than any single win by Wladimir Klitschko and Anthony Joshua.
