Mercer Says Morrison was hardest puncher

[LOLORSKATES]

Truthfully I dislike Tyson as much as the next person would..as long as the next person isn't Versatile but I'll step in and tell my feelings.

Foreman was obviously a harder hitter even in the 90s but just too slow.

seriously, i doubt mercer has fought anyone who punched harder than klitschko or lewis.

like someone said earlier, a lot of boxers say the fighter who hits the hardest is one they have defeated already.

wladimir,vitali, and lennox lewis seem to be the hardest hitters in the last 20 years at least. tyson and peter would be up there as well.

...In fact, he nearly made him **** himself.

Sean Newman: Hi, Ray, how are you doing?

Ray Mercer: I’m doing great, thanks.

SN: Do you know exactly why Hasim Rahman pulled out of your scheduled fight with him on February 22?

RM: I really don’t know, personally. I heard he claimed he was injured, and I hear he never signed the contract in the first place. It’s just boxing, man.

SN: Is the whole thing a total wash for you, or is a replacement opponent being sought?

RM: We’re ready to fight, we’re just going to put it out there, “hey, just call on Ray Mercer.”

SN: Joe Mesi is still supposed to fight on that card. Do you think there is any chance his people would be willing to take a fight with you at this stage, and how would you feel about that fight?

RM: I’ve been chasing that dude and there’s been word for a couple of years now of me fighting Joe Mesi. They were talking about it at one time, but I think he punked out. I don’t think they want to fight a guy like Ray Mercer. They’re looking for easy fights.

SN: It has been rumored that Tommy Morrison wants to fight on that card, provided he can get licensed. Would you be willing to fight him in a rematch down the road?

RM: Ahhh! (Laughs) Of course. Without a doubt I’d fight him.

SN: Speaking of Morrison, you are perhaps best known for your brutal knockout of him in 1991. Did you know he was out after a few punches, or were you just punching with the intention of keeping him down?

RM: The guy was hitting me so hard, I figured when I got him hurt, I was going to make sure he was hurt. I didn’t want him to hit me again so I just kept punching.

SN: Were you concerned at all afterward that he might be seriously hurt?

RM: I was glad he was okay, he was boxing on his stool like the fight was still going on. I got worried about him a little right then. It’s boxing.

SN: Let’s back up. What brought you to the United States Army?

RM: My father did 20 years and we traveled to Europe and different places, and I figured getting into the military was a good opportunity for me to see the world.


SN: You were always known for having a rock solid chin. Who hit you the hardest in your professional career?

RM: Tommy Morrison. Morrison hit me so hard to the body with those hooks that I was actually farting in the ring. (Laughs) You have to act like…you can’t let the guy see that you’re hurt, but I’m pretty sure he heard and smelled a couple of things. (Laughs) But he hit me harder than I was ever hit in boxing.
