    Michael Moorer and Hasim Rahman. Two short joke title reigns. Good talent, little consistency.

    Their careers are nothing alike.

    People forget or dont know that Moorer was the light heavyweight champ that moved up by two weight classes to become a two time heavyweight champ. beating a near-prime Evander Holyfield for the title in 1994. He was killing everyone at 175 before he moved up. Racked up 26 KOs in a row with 26 wins.

    Had greats fights with Holyfield, Foreman, Bert Cooper, Schulz, Botha and Jirov.

      Rahman was overrated garbage after his win over Lennox.. he's most likely one of the weakest heavyweight champions in history.

        Moorer is still the hardest puncher I've seen at 175, some people say Foster or Spinks but I think Moorer hit harder then those guys.
