moorer gets no credit for beating a dead holyfield........
How good was Michael Moorer?

light heavy he was a beast in power, very slick southpaw, and was able to handle punches better, not great, just better. but at heavy weight, he was better than average in a slowly fading heavyweight division, the beggining of the end, and his chin was at the C level when he was trying to fight guys at the A level..........
his fight with bert cooper was a classic........... that one always pops in my head when i think about moorer............. don't know why either.Comment

Holyfield didn't knock him out. He finished the round and then the doctor stopped the fight.Tyson would take his head off. Moorer didn't have a great chin. I think all three would knock him out but he could probably catch Lewis with a lucky punch and ko him, ala McCall and Rahman. Holyfield knocked him out, while Bowe and Lewis survived everything that Holyfield threw at them. Tyson was a different fighter when he fought Holyfield. A prime Tyson would have taken Moorer out early because Moorer would never back out of a slugfest.Comment
