    Moorer of the first Holyfield fight vs Roy Jones Jr who beat Ruiz at heavy.

    Who wins this in a 12 rounder and why?

    I don’t think Jones would have had the power at heavyweight to capitalize on Moorer’s shaky chin the way that other heavies did. That and Moorer could hit pretty hard. Had a south paw style and fast hands. Height and reach too. I think MM wins this one way or another.

    Jones showed some weakness vs Southpaws and Moorer had good power, Moorer by KO for me. Hell even at Light Heavyweight Moorer has a chance of winning by KO aswell.
