    Morrison was a lot like Frazier? Head movement, left hook, compact punches. If it's not plain to see, I'm afraid for all your exploits here, you don't know too much about boxing. Frazier did probably have a better chin but he was also destroyed twice by a guy Morrison managed to beat right before his greatest win. I'm not on here trying to insult anyone , hell I live in Dallas, lol. I was making a point for those on here not to be so narrow minded and give the Klitschko's their due. They would be near the top of or the best in the heavyweight division in any era. Even the smallish 70's era you people so covet.

    And as for the level of success doesn't get any better in the heavyweight division than being a world titlist. So, effectively, Frazier and Morrision found quite close to the same success. (Plus, I think part of the kicker here is that Ali is overrated too based on really losing twice to Frazier. Vitali would beat Frazier 10 out of 10 times.)

      You know, a few days ago I saw a post I thought had to be the most ******ed I've seen in my 7 years on Boxing Scene.....this post comes damn close. It's amazing the lengths the Klithuggers will go in a vain attempt to make their mediocre heros look good.

        do I have to remind you that two 70s Heavyweights, Holmes and Foreman, both had success in the 90s even though they over 40 and obviously way past it?

        how about the fact that 45 year old Holmes beat Mercer one sidedly, when Morrison got KOed by him and Lewis struggled with him?
        The key word was , most of his opponents.

        I've already been over the Foreman situation. He was a lot like B-hop. He was a better boxer later in his career while he was a better slugger earlier. He was an exception to the rule.

        Sure, Holms was a great fighter in his day. But he was still small by todays standards and he may have beaten Mercer but Tommy was beating Mercer too before getting caught. Holmes was more defensive oriented. Tommy played more into Rays hands. Styles make fights.

        I'm not saying the 70's fighters weren't good, but I think, like Ali, they were small and overrated.

            And for those who haven't been following this thread closely Mr. Invincible is an obvious sock-puppet alt.....the only question is which known demented Klitlicker it belongs to.

                  You stopped reading at nothing, since I never mentioned that. Stop putting words into my mouth you little b*tch.

                  I realize now that this discussion is pointless.
                  I realise you know nothing about boxing.

                  Maybe I should move to another topic on nsb where people aren't lost in time. (aka: delusion)
                  Be my guest, go back to the ****** gutter you came from.
