Mercer Says Morrison was hardest puncher

[beez721]

I wonder if Morrison landed any decent punches on Lennox Lewiss chin. Lennox is suppodely a weak jaw so if Morrison was a murderous puncher wouldnt Lennox have done a Berbick against Tyson type dance against Morrison?
I wonder if Morrison fought Tyosn, would Tyson be thinking to himself, "man this dude hits heavier than me, and im supposed to be the hardest hitter"

naaa,,,he only landed really one solid punch on lewis and it was a right hand in the first round that caught lewis flush and had him holding on for a moment. lewis fought a great fight that night and used his height and reach keeping morrsion at a distance. morrison just couldnt get close enough to lewis to do any damage

I remember thinking if only Morrison wasnt HIV positive he might have done better against Lewis.

I think Lennox Lewis would have beaten Tommy Morrison at anytime. Also, although i doubt that Morrison hit harder than Tyson, i don't doubt that Morrison was a hard puncher, but regardless of that, Mike Tyson is the better fighter, with the better record, and he has knocked out a better level of fighter on his record IMO.

You know something...we will never know for sure if Morrison hit harder or Tyson hit harder. Tyson was better and faster and was more likely out of the 2 to land his punches and had better combinations IMO and better at avoiding getting hit. Tyson was tougher and more menacing and that worked to his advantage.
Tyson will be remembered as the better boxer of the 2. Tyson isnt remembered for hitting harder than Morrison....that is not what he was about. But it wouldnt suprise me if Tyson did hit harder. If anyone can understand that.

It looked to me like Morrison, shot for shot, hit harder than Mike Tyson did...
But, he was not a better puncher than Mike Tyson, & certainly no where
near as good a fighter.
Tyson would have KO'd him within two rds.

Morrison was a massive, massive puncher....with both hands, & he put his shots together very well. But, he was vulnerable to big shots, & was way too tense- which resulted in him being poor in his ability to take punches or not get fatigued.

I think Morrison would last a round. Tyson would let him last a round to see what the kid from Rocky had. He'd go for the finish in the second if he coud manage it.
