    Moorer by decision in a very interesting fight that would keep our eyes open for its entirety.

    Moorer could be boring but he could also be very exciting and, knowing now what we know thanks to the Foreman, Holyfield 2 and Tua bouts,, we'd be waiting and seeing if Oscar lands the home run!

    (Wait..I actually wrote _its on my original post-something we the women in my family do not have at all!...LOL......thank God for the "edit" button!)

    I'd lean Moorer, but good fight.

    Gotta go with Oscar, like 9th round stoppage.

    Close, difficult fight. Bonavena might win it, but I’d lean to Moorer. He’s going to accumulate points win or lose, & has enough pop to gain respect.

    I mean it's not unfair to say Moorer could box some. Bonavena could too, in a very basic manner, when the mood struck him. But he would obviously be a step behind against Moorer. Would he even naturally be the bigger man against a heavyweight MM?
