    I also think that Moorer would have beaten Tarver, in similar fashion to the way he beat Stewart. Being somewhat outboxed and behind on the cards (I think that was the Stewart fight) and he comes back and KO's him.

    Tarver has shown that he can be hurt and dropped and I think Moorer was too good a fighter at 175 to lose to a Tarver caliber fighter.
    I agree 100% & MM had a good chin at LHW too. Eubanks wasn't strong enough to keep MM off him. He'd eventually catch up to him.

    • The Jinx would have had his way with Moorer, like every other LH he faced.

        Eubank was actually fighting at LHW at the same time Moorer was the LHW WBO champ, he had a few fights at LHW before dropping back down to lighter weights, and you know around this time Eubank was always getting the better of Dennis Andries(WBC LHW champ at the time) in sparring sessions. Yes Eubank would of beat him as a pro, because Eubank always starved himself to stay below LHW, so if he wasn't starving himself he'd be even better than he was.

          So you are telling me that Because he had an eating disorder he would be favored to beat MM who won every one of his LHW fights by KO.

            He didn't have an eating disorder dude, he had to make the weight. Eubank's chin is ridiculous so Moorer's no KOing him. As you know Dennis Andries and Moorer sparred a lot at the Kronk and it was so competitive that Manny knew they shouldn't fight the real deal in the arena because he feared one of them or both of them may of come out of it seriously hurt, and around the same time Eubank was easily beating Andries in sparring sessions when Andries was in London (whereas Moorer was getting beat up by Andries).

              alright, I never knew this, It sounds like it could have been a pretty good fight though. Moorer was tough as nails, the guys that beat him where Hall of Famers Holy/foreman. by the time he fought Tua he was done, and Tua is one of the hardest hitters of all time so can't really take anything away from Moorer there. I'm sure Eubanks has a great chin, but so does Jirov, and alot of other HW's MM put down.

              • To be honest, nobody knows how good Eubank would of been at LHW. I think he would of been the **** though had he slipped to LHW after the Benn re-match(payday) and stayed there for five years.
