Tommy Morrison Wins MMA Debut

[TheEvilSaint]

this had absolutley nothing to do with MMA. it was boxing gloves and stove was told "no kicking, no knees". so it was a boxing match. this was not an MMA fight.

Don't forget that the story said this too, '...but the former champ appeared to be badly exhuasted after fighting for less than 2 and a half minutes.' He gassed out in the 1st round in his last boxing match too. There has to be a reason he keeps gassing. Would HIV cause this?

20 years of very heavy drug, alcohol, and steriod use would cause this. Maybe not so much the HIV, but all of the HIV medication he is taking but claims he isn't taking would also contribute to this.

Morrison is a lying con man. **** him. I honestly wanted to root for him in his comeback because I kind of felt sorry for him because of what he'd been through. I really don't anymore. **** Morrison.

In fact here is an announcement: I will never again bother posting in a thread about Tommy Morrison, or reading any new article about Morrison.

There is no sanctioning body to blame.

The fight was on a Reservation, which is not under the sanctioning authority of the state. These wild west lawless Indian casino fights need to be cracked down on by the government before someone gets seriously hurt.

There were not even pre-fight medical screenings at this event Morrison was at. It was just people thrown into a cage. That is not just bad for MMA but bad for any combat sport.

At most you can point to the promoter of the event that put on this circus.

Notice how Morrison's return boxing fight, and his debut MMA fight, were both in areas that did not require supervised blood draws?

I think what Morrison did was a disgrace. He basically made the guy fight a boxing match at the last minute.

If I had been cornering Stover, I would have either told him not to come out and fight, or to go in there and take him down and get DQ'd. I would have basically said, '**** Morrison, if he wants to change the rules either we won't play or we will change them too.'

I think like Southpaw16. I did feel bad for him at first. It looked like he had lost alot of his carreer over a bad test. It's pretty apparent now that he is just a piece of **** who will endanger others people's health just to make a buck.

I was thinking more around the lines of staying grounded and charley horsing him to death

He has aids, the guy took a fall on purpose so he didn't end up getting aids... This is sick ****

[demirturk]

the guy got the clinch so easy , he would have taken him down with ease, morrison put that guys life in danger. i lost all respect for him. why not ask for a K1 type of fighter to do this mma fight. oh yeah he cancelled knees and kicks to.

[krakurrjack]

lol WTF ,what a ***** act. why called it a MMA match if its just boxing with tiny gloves? that poor guy never had a chance.

your right!!! he never had a chance, so would'nt alot of other people too, tommy hits pretty hard,lol!!!
