        Yeah, exactly. Foreman's first comeback opponents were all pretty good fighters. I'm not saying they were top 10 or even top 20 heavyweights, but they were good fighters in the sense that they'd all had a lot of pro fights with solid winning records. You definately won't see any 4-2 records amongst Foreman's comeback opponents. Within a couple of years of coming back Foreman had wins over Bert Cooper and Gerry Cooney.

        Another difference between Foreman and Morrison is that in Foreman's 10 years off, he actually led a very clean life where he was spending his time preaching and running a community center. Morrison is coming back after 10 years of very heavy drug use, including 2 years in jail, as well as a lot of heavy medication. Stuff like that ages a person, and Foreman was a young 38, Morrison may very well be an old 38.

        I would love to see Morrison do it, but I think that Foreman's comeback will make people more excited about this than they should be.

              If Morrison and Holyfield make successful comebacks I want to see them fight!

                Good for Tommy but he has a long way to go, especially conditioning wise. He is basically starting over. I think he has forgot what it takes to be in fighting shape becasue even though he looks like he is in good shape physically, he really isn't. That will come in time. Atleast he still has the hook.

                  my quote of the year nomination comes from John Castle in his Pre-Fight interview.........

                  "they say for me to get it we'd have to literally rub two open wound together and bleed into each other.... but i dont see anybody willing to go up and tongue kiss this guy either"

                    Glad to see that Morrison's back and hope to see him in the coming months on ESPN or VS. However, I didn't catch any of the interview last night or the fight clips. Does anyone have a link? Is it up on youtube yet? Any pics?
