    I think Moorer would beat Barkley. A fast handed south paw with big power who later proved he could bang with heavys against a guy who was stopped a number of times below 175

    Moorer blows his head off. You don't rush Moorer if you don't have a good defence and you're chin is average. That's asking to be KOed.

    I'm going with Moorer. BUT if Barkley takes his best and is still there Michael may start to crack mentally.

    Moorer was an absolute monster at LHW. Beats up and stops Barkley by the half way mark.

    I'll go with the fresher, younger Moorer. By the time Iran had faced Tommy at light heavy, his best days were long behind.
    Which is not to say he wasn't still tasty, he beat Hearns, so he still had a bit about him.
    But Moorer was confident at this weight, he was a killer. And that's what gets him this fight imo.
    Barkley s big shots may rock him but Moorer s are cleaner, faster and bust up his opponent face.
    By the mid way mark, Iran's showing signs of the battle, Moorer s digging in to him like a man that s lost his mind!
    Before round 9,Iran's walking blind and spitting blood, the ref will save his life and pull him out.
