This is a mismatch. Neither man had much of a chin, but Morrison at least took a clobbering from Mercer and Lewis, before getting dispatched in rounds 5 and 6. Bobick was finished early by anyone who could get to him right away, weather they had a punch or not, and Morrison was both a fast starter and a hard hitter. Morrison KO inside of 2 rounds. Yeah Morrison had a glass chin because he got knocked out by Ray Mercer after gassing out. Lewis a fight he kept getting up, something Tyson cant say and Bentt upset him. There are tons of fighters who were knocked out more than 3 times in there career but they are never penalized like Morrison. Wlad was knocked out 3 times by lesser fighters and isn't put down. Maskaev was knocked out maybe 8 times, Jersey Joe Walcott was knocked out 6 times ( We know why he isn't bashed because it makes Marciano's knockout over him seem more credible) In any case Morrison fought and beat the better opponents. If Morrison would of kept his thing in his pants and trained more he could of been a great fighter instead of a really really good one. Morrison by Ko in 1 round.
I think Morrison would win. But Bobick was one of my favorites anyways, mainly for his personality and antics in later life following the ring. He was quite a monster for his time, beating Stevenson in the amateurs, and had a string of kayos as a pro against guys like Wepner, etc. it was quite a shock to see him get busted by Norton...but on the other hand, I also consider this fight to be one of Norton's best moments in the ring.
I gotta go with "The Duke" in this event........ Why? Morrison had better hand speed.... Power? Well, its close there.... Ol' Bobick could swat, too.... BUT! Morrison at least beat a few "Name" dudes like "Pinklon Thomas, George Foreman & Razor Ruddock." Duane Bobick never got a solid win over anybody good / great......... Again, hand speed is the key.... I say Morrison strikes first blood and closes the show on Bobick.....:bbb MR.BILL
Morrison was the better all-around fighter, and if he uses his smarts and footwork, he should be able to avoid Bobick's bombs and land his own first. I'll take Morrison by KO in 5 rounds or less.
you obviously are an idiot. wells had broken bobbicks nose and it was a mess. nick had a massive gash above his lefteye brow that bobick only had to breath on to make it fester. the cut was caused by horseplay at the team hotel 2 days prior when nick chased a teammate out of the room who threw a lemon at him (the guy was sucking lemons to make weight) just as nick was at the door his teammate was coming back into the room and nailed nick with the door.therefore causing an injury that would be an issue for him the rest of his career. nick went on the next day to ko larry holmes in the first rd, to set the stage for him and bobbick. the ref stopped the fight while nick was on the stool going into the 3rd rd because blood was causing nick seeing problems. nick was easily winning the fight. get your facts straight,,, or dont speak at all.
