    You don't think the wins over Foreman, Ruddock, Hipp and Truth put Morrison above Bentt, or even Hide?

    Foreman's the only win there worth much and it was not a convincing performance in my eyes by either man.
    Morrison ran like a rabbit, turning his back at points in the fight to make his retreat.

    Truth was a washed up fighter, almost a relic already, I remember he'd been beaten by Jerry Jones a few fight earlier.
    And Morrison, who possessed a left hook Williams's kryptonite, went life and death with him.

    Ruddock was finished too. He'd done virtually nothing since Lewis destroyed him, had been out of the ring ages and was his career heaviest.

    Those two guys were just names, genuine has-beens, same as Thomas and Tillis.

    Hipp was a tough fighter but not a true contender. He gave Morrison hell.

    Bentt destroyed Morrison. Hide destroyed Bentt.

    I doubt Morrison would beat a semi-motivated Jesse Ferguson, in all honesty.
    All wrong for him.

    I'm not sure about this Morrison cult and where it comes from but you only have to look at some of the posters who are in love with Morrison to understand it's probably just for the ret arded.
    Then again, you already say my posts are absurd, so you'll disagree with me here too I'm sure.
    Oh, and might as well declare me a Morrison "hater" since I do admit I think he was fairly sh!t. :lol:

    As an aside, Tyson once commented that Morrison is the kind of guy he (Tyson) would have made wash his underwear in reform school.
    I like Tommy and he was in some good fights. He had some nice skills and a hell of a left hook. But a chinny fighter is a dead man walking against even a less-than-great version of Tyson.

    That was shortly after Tyson was taught about washing. He was a stinky child by his own admission.

    In fairness to Morrison, Tyson also told the adult Razor Ruddock that he was going to make him his girlfriend and couldn't wait for him to kiss him with his big lips.

    I completely understand, and no this isn't an absurd post, but a worse resume than Bentt whose ONLY win was over Morrison? And I don't see much on Hide's record either, which is really padded and even a bit worse than Morrison's.

    I agree that Ferguson and a boat load of 80's mid contenders would handle Morrison. I don't see Tommy winning a title, ever. Also, he stood in the pocket with Foreman a lot more than people give him credit for. Yeah he did run, but he stood and fought too.

    The 90's had the power guys which people love. Morrison wasn't that bad, but he wasn't as good as a lot of people on here think. Probably his win over Foreman, perhaps?

    I can't remember exactly, but it was when Morrison was still unbeaten, so sometime before the Mercer fight.

    Morrison KO 1, If don King thought Tyson would win, he'd have made the bout, and got his favorite color "Green" HE COULD BURN DOLLAR BILLS for 60 days and still have $millions, T yson can't beat a puncher, name one?
