What happend? Morrison's comeback made major news all through out the media, with an hiv fighter claiming he never had the disease and was coming back. I have't heard anything in a while about the mullet hair cut, redneck fighter.
His last fight was back in February on the undercard of one of the Latin Fury shows. I think because of the HIV thing he is finding it difficult to get fights made and I dont think promoters want to have him on their fight cards now ?
Morrison is really 'old school'. I can remember Morrison getting schooled by the first ever Eastern European to turn pro Yuri Vaulin. Vaulin was totally outboxing Morrison got hit by a body shot, turned his back and quit. Vaulin is the biggest quiter in boxing, I have ever seen. To bad, Vaulin was a really good boxer. He had a great jab, was quick, tall, moved well on his feet. Vaulin was boxing circles around Morriosn so much he most of thought he was surrounded, and he rocked Morrison.
I have Vaulin vs Morrison on VHS. How could I put that youtube? It is pretty cool, retro HBO with the pre-fight build up, the fight and post fight interviews. The fight was billed as like real life Rocky 4 vs Rocky 5. Morrison starred in Rocky 4. Vaulin was the first Soviet heavyweight to fight as pro.
I just went to his web site, and sent him an email. I asked him to come over here and tell us what's up. It'll be pretty cool if he does.
I think that's your explanation right there. There was a great deal of controversy over Morrison's supposed "cure" from HIV, and I think most still believe he's still got it.
Yeah I agree, still it would be good to know what he intends to do, whether he will attempt to get some more fights and try to get reinstated to fight in US or just go on to something else.
Yeah, because a bodyshot from Morrison is nothing. Mercer said that's the hardest he was EVER hit. To the body from Morrison
