    So from the European heavyweight s from the late 90 s onward, who's the best that Tommy Morrison could have beaten?

    You heard about Siarhei Liakhovich, you just forgot :) Now I will try to remind you:
    - Siarhei Liakhovich was the WBO HW Champion at the time the belt was valid
    - He won the title in a fight with Lamon Brewster, and lost in the next fight against Shannon Briggs
    - Apart from the mentioned two, he boxed with: Nikolai Valuev, Robert Helenius, Bryant Jennings, Deontay Wilder and Andy Ruiz
    - I believe he is better known to you for one of Wilder's most spectacular knockouts :)

    Nikolay Valuev - on neutral ground.
    Oleg Maskaev perhaps, on his day? Would be a good one.

    If You never saw him fight, You'll have a lot of fun watching the Brewster fight.

    Morrison vs. AJ would be a heck of a fight.

    He was in that mix of euro heavy back in the day.
    Could be a entertaining night, he and Morrison!

    It's a modern classic for me. I still rewatch it.

    Even AJ is a cut above Tommy.

    Tommy could take a Jean Maurice Chanet level guy, maybe even a Christophe Bizot on a an especially good night.

    I wouldn't want to feel a Ruddock Smash if I had an AJ constitution, I'll say that much

    No way . Bruno probably sparks him out. Mason beats him up. Damiani stops him late.
