How Good was Tommy Morrison ?

[HeartAttack]

LMFAAAOOOOOO just watched that **** homie

john waynes great grandson was aight, had a promising career, until he was diagnosed with aids...even tohugh he didint have aids so he basically got ****ed over, promising career in the begginin tho...except for that roy mercer fight hahahahah that **** was brutal

He still tested positive last year. basically he ****ed the wrong ***** and his career was over, but he didn't get ****ed over.

[TheFairPole]

Where is the link showing that he tested positive last year? He is fighting on the payperview this weekend so get your story straight before you post that. You guys forget that he only had 3 losses on his record when he had to quit. He lost to Mercer, Lewis and some guy named Michael Bentt. His only problem was that he was never in shape for his fights and that is what held him back. If anything, he was a devastating puncher and many fighters say that he was easily the hardest puncher that they have ever faced...

Alright, but Mason Dixon was better...

[Banderivets]

WTF with all the talk about him in this division?

WTF would he beat?

Lmao, Herbie Hide Flattened Bentt for the very same WBO Title that Bentt took off Morrison ,they were actually fighting at the Press Conference prior to the fight

Tommy Morrison gets a mention. He beat a lot of the same guys Tyson got credit for coming up like Pinklon Thomas, James Tillis, Carl "the truth" Williams and Donovan "Razor" Ruddock. His biggest win was beating George Foreman BEFORE he won the Titles again.

I think his best was yet to come but he retired way too soon. Most boxers admit thier prime is in thier 28-32 years. I think he quit when he was 26.

Tommy Morrison would be a contender at any time in the division, but he was perhaps a bit overrated because of all the publicity. He was a solid B+ heavyweight at his best.

He would probably NOT win a title if he was in his prime right now, but he may have a few years ago when the heavyweight division was at its weakest (over Byrd, Ruiz, or Brewster).

Wladimir vs. prime Morrison would be very similar to Lewis vs. prime Morrison. I doubt whether he'd beat Chagaev, Valuev or Ibragimov either.

Fringe contender...not a real threat to be a champion.

[Derranged]

He had decent skills, a hard left hook, and a very very bad chin. Nothing special, he was definitely overhyped.

Good analysis. Morrison was always vlunerable, but his left hook would always give him a shot against almost anyone. I agree with the Lewis/Wladimir fight comparison. He'd be torn apart.
