    out of 10
    power
    tyson-9
    morrison-7

    speed
    tyson-8
    morrison-6

    chin
    tyson-7
    morrison-4

    too much power too much speed and controlled aggresion.

    morrison as good as he was didnt have anything to back guys up but his power and could get into a big spot of bother in fights that he shouldnt of had trouble in. joe hipp was a good example morrison couldnt back him upt with anything his left hook as good as it was didnt seem to effect hipp and hipp as crude and simple as he was could bang and had alot of heart to go on the inside.

    and thats it tysons fight plan in his later career was to use the jab to corner or blind them then...wham wham wham and tie up and if they back up then luanch everything at them.

    Tyson's chin was better than a 7...and a 4 for morrison is ridiculous...

    4 is cliffort etienne like.....

    Other than that your post is correct..Dont forget that in the hipp fight he broke his left hand and got his jaw broken...

    Morrison would win. He would not be afraid and Tyson would soon quit. He would fight Tyson just like he fought Foreman. Morrison's speed was highly underrated.

    Morrison provided some good entertainment, but Tyson would of mauled him in 2 rounds. Would of been embarressing as well.

    Agree with your points on Morrison not being scared and his speed being highly underrated.

    Though i dont agree on the winning part of your post...

    Though he was always a left hook away from changing a fight...

    But so was mike.lol

    Morrison had heart and didn't just go out after a quick array of shots a la Seldon etc, but he would not be able to handle even a sub great Mike Tyson. I saw a bad part of Tommys make up against both Hipp and Vaulin, Tyson would overpower him in 4 or 5..

    Tyson with in 5 rounds Tommy's ace in the hole his left hook wont help him here since Tyson has the chin to take his left hook.

    He once had a interview with a Australian newspaper and claimed to of shagged over 2000women...

    Im not sure about the figure but in his prime and being the great white hope he would of got a hell of alot of *****..

    Also spoke to a Vegas Bouncer lastyear who told me about some of tommy's wild nights at clubs he worked at during the early 90's..

    Said tommy would be off his head only a few weeks before a bout,with like shitloads of women around him all night..

    Who knows how he could of been if he wasnt so reckless with his pants down and partying ways...
