    A left hook battle, only one guy has a cast iron chin = win for Tua.

    Only one time as an amateur when He was a boy fighting the best amateur fighter at that time and was about 10 years older.

    Morrison was a far better overall boxer than Tua but Tua had that solid chin. I'd say Tua knocks The Duke out in around 6 to 8 rounds after being far behind on the cards.

    the one thing that i admire about morrison is that despite a suspect chin, he keeps getting up (usually)

    ruddock was a pretty close to a match of punching power with tua and tommy got off the floor to win.

    if tommy just had a chance to fall down against ray mercer

    Depends... pre or post Ike?

    Pre Ike, Tommy makes a fight out of it but can't dent Tua's chin and loses by brutal KO probably in middle rounds. Post Ike Tommy might just outbox his ass all the way to the final bell.

    Morrison does well but eventually gets caught and stopped by a Tua onslaught.

    Tua would be devastating in this fight. It would be a classic knockout.

    Morrison has a Glass Jaw and no stamina.

    Tua is a midget.

    I would probably say Tua KO's Morrison in the middle rounds.
