On that date Tommy Morrison was supposed to fight Herbie Heid to get his WBO belt back, and also on the card was supposed to be Ray Mercer VS Frank Bruno please give what you think would have happend.
i say Tommy Morrison KO round 3
And Frank Bruno by UD
now I'm really getting irritated.
as it was, we were still only one Boneclutcher right hand away from a Tyson-Spoon showdown. Back in the day, I always thought Spoon would have given Tyson fits if in shape.... During the Tyson domination days when he was looking quite ordinary against the likes of Tucker and Clutcher I was telling people that Spoon would be the guy who would dethrone Tyson. Of course that never happened becuase of Spoon's troubles with Don King and his troubles putting the fork down.
Yeah, if Spoon was in shape and serious, Tyson would have had trouble. We would have found out a lot sooner than February 10th, 1990 what Mike was made of...and maybe, just maybe, Mike would have been at his best too.
What a ninth round in Holmes v Spoon. Tim had Holmes going, but Holmes showed why he was great and came back swinging.
your getting me all fired up Dogg!!!
Damn, now I'm gonna have to go home and put that tape in...THAT WAS A GREAT ROUND!! :D
Dave, I with you 100% on that notion. Tim should have been Larry's successor and he and Tyson should have had an Ali-Frazier type of rivalry, IMO; but Tim was always "terrible" with his conditioning. Damn shame; he had so much talent.

exactly what would happen..
Witherspoon is another guy that irritates me everytime i think about him. He is one that could have been great if he had the dedication.

I'd say a repeat of Witherspoon-Bruno isn't out of the question in that scenario, honestly.

Morrison would have more than likely squashed Hyde...and I'd give the edge to Bruno to win a decision as well; but Ray was always dangerous about last minute comebacks....and Bruno had a tendency to fade down the stretch. I'd say a repeat of Witherspoon-Bruno isn't out of the question in that scenario, honestly.
If you class the IBC as a championship belt, he beat a 40 something Foreman, lost to Michael Bentt by TKO in the first round for trying to brawl, He was beating Mercer until he caught a beat down in the third round, and Lewis was simply too good for him.
Basically, whenever he stepped up, he lost.
I honestly think he was rushed too much, he'd fight four times in a month, I can't name a fighter who fights that often in this era.
if your not impressed with him beating a 44 year old foreman how come no one that fought foreman except holyfeild could beat him? i am not saying he was great i am saying he could have been
Give Tommy Morrison credit is all i am asking, he is a two time champion, beat a legend
What belts did he win? Foreman was damn near 50. You think beating a 50 year old makes someone a great fighter? You are clearly an idiot!
Tommy was a very skilled fighter with power. To say he was great or even close to it is incorrect. He was fun to watch and I actually like the guy. His lack of chin,stamina and dedication proved to be his downfall.
I always looke forward to his fights becuase they were usually exciting.

im not taking anything away from tommy (although i have my opinion about him thats not the issue). im just saying having tommy in ur avatar is ok. tommy in ur sig, ok. tommy in both. ok, but pushing it. making a tommy thread with the latter, thats obsessive.
im not saying tommy's a bad fighter, im just saying: plz dont flood the forum with tommy threads.
I swear you whiteboys on the internet are completely divorced from reality!
i just noticed this jewel. How did you follow up a nice thought with this stupid comment?
kill whitey!!!
he is my favorite fighter i am not obsessed
well, if you admitted that you were obsessed, i wouldnt have thought much of it.
but ur sporting morrison in ur avatar, signature, and are spewing out tommy morrison threads that at a rate that rivals JUYJUY's eubank threads.
did you not see the Foreman fight, the Ruddock fight,The first 3 rounds agianst mercer, the hipp fight, listen you racist piece of shit why dont you watch some of his fights
How does idiots like you even manage to turn on a comnputer? Listen you moron! You won't get away with blowing someone's skills out of proportion just because they are white. How many times did this mediocre great white hope get koed before the HIV results? I swear you whiteboys on the internet are completely divorced from reality!
If it wasn't for Micheal Bentt, he would have been king! :D :rolleyes:
and if I recall, Lewis knocked his ass out.
Morrison was a beast in his day, that guy would have dethroned Tyson no problem, if they didnt stop him from fighting due to his false positive HIV test results. They screwed this guy and everyone knows it, he was going to be a champion to be reckoned with. I wish they would have let him come back so we could have gotten Big Joke Lewis out of the Heavyweights by a devestating KO by Morrison(by far one of the worst/overrated heavyweight champs ever)
