    They are both insanely good punchers, and Walcott has the advantage chin wise (Surviveed 14 with Marciano, went the distance with Louis and Elmer Ray, multiple bouts with Charles without getting dropped) but I believe that Moorer has the better heart, he's likely to get dropped once or twice but rise to the occasion and take Walcott out once put into deep waters. Moorer was slick, strong, and most importantly, fast.
    Butterfly Vs Dragonfly.

    Well, I agree Walcott has the advantage chin, up to a point.

    In all honesty, I dont think Walcott would take Foreman's bombs better than Moorer did... If Big George catches him like he caught Moorer it is Good Night Jersey Joe.

    I would heavily favor Moorer. If not heavily favor right on the borderline of heavy favoring. But I seem to rate Moorer higher and Walcott lower than your typical poster on here.
