Keep going. You said, "one of the top amateur champions of all time." You're the only person on the face of the earth who said that.
I'd take Golota, but I suppose Morrison could catch him flush (cold) early and Golota may panic and lose it. Although I think Golota having enough size and using his good jab and long right hand will find Tommy and take him out in about 5 rounds. Tommy was a front runner mostly, Golota was a head case so anything is obviously possible here. But I can't see even the best version of Morrison walking thru what Bowe put on Golota in either fight. Yes Golota was well in control of both fights but Riddick landed some great shots in both fights and Golota kept coming, until the DQ. Bottom line I don't see Tommy staying in there long enough for Golota to melt down and I see Andrew ending it in the 6th.
Tommy lacked a chin and stamina but he had heart. Wit that I think Golota should win if he doesn't sabotage himself. There is always the possibility that Morrison hangs in there and Andrew breaks down mentally and quits.
Yea but i don't think Morrison has the same stuff that bowe had when golota was beating him... Morrison has his chance early guns blazing like brewster, otherwise golota batters him
One of the most decorated amateur boxers in US history, Bentt won four New York City Golden Gloves titles, five United States Amateur Boxing Championships and three (New York State) Empire State Games gold medals. After having won the bronze medal at the 1986 World Amateur Boxing Championships and the 1987 Pan American Games he placed a controversial second-place finish at the 1988 United States Olympic Trials and Box-off's to the Seoul Olympics eventual Gold Medalist, Ray Mercer. As both his mother and father are Jamaican citizens, he won the right to fight on the Jamaican Olympic Boxing Team after stopping the island nation's top amateur heavyweights in the 1988 Jamaican Olympic Trials. However, when confronted with the provision that he would have to relinquish his United States citizenship in order to accompany the Jamaican team to Seoul, he refused. Bentt is regarded as the most decorated boxer in the history of American amateur boxing never to have competed on a United States Olympic boxing team.[1] His other amateur titles included the 1981 New York City Police Athletic League Champion, 1980 NYC Kids Gloves Champion, Empire State Games Heavyweight Champion (1982, 1983, 1984). He was a three-time selected member of the United States All-American National Boxing Team (1985, 1986, 1987), captain of the 1986 United States Goodwill Games Boxing Team and the 1987 United States Pan American Games Boxing Team. He was a bronze medalist in each of those competitions. He also received the bronze medal at the 1985 World Amateur Championships in Seoul, South Korea and the gold medal at the 1985 North American Championship in Beaumont, Texas. In 1985, he was the recipient of the Sugar Ray Robinson Award as the most outstanding boxer in the New York Golden Gloves tournament that year(among the 85' class of Golden Gloves champions were future professional champions Riddick Bowe, Kevin Kelly and Junior Jones). Bentt was also a three time member of the United States All-American Amateur Boxing Team. Bentt counts avenging an earlier defeat,suffered at the hands of,then, three-time USSR World Amateur Heavyweight Champion, Alexander Yagubkin, at the 1986 World Championships in Reno, Nevada as one of his most precious moments.
