    Morrison at his best has enough for a points win.

    Valuev’s imposing size cause Morrison to gas early. And he gets beat up down the stretch

    Agreed. I don’t see Tommy being able to stop Valuev (though I would love to see that left hook of his repeatedly find a home on Valuev’s ribs) but I think that if Morrison fights a disciplined fight and uses his footwork and upper body movement, this fight is in the bag for him.
