I have only seen this guy twice and he seems like a nice technical fighter and in some ways reminds me of Holyfield (without as much excitement though).

he seems a bit too slow already at cruiserweight and a move to heavyweight will only make his stamina worsen.

he woldn't last, as neither would jirov. the cruierserweights use to be able to do it in the HW division. i mean, look at holyfield n stuff. its really hard for jirov n moremeck to last in the divison. the avergae fighter seems to be 235 or 240, 30 years a go tho it was like 215.
much has changed
hell light heavyweights used to be HW champs

Mormeck sucks ass. Yes he beat Wayne Braithwaite, but Wayne himself was still very unproven.

Dont forget mormeck strgelled badly with Virgil Hill.

mormeck doesnt suck ass . he is an entertaining pressure fighter .

but he wont go up to HW . he was a light heavy national champ for years , that would be a step up of 2 divisions , not one.

plus he is kinda slow already at cruiser .

He's a solid fighter. technically decent. His main asset, at cruiser, is his strength.
He goes up to heavyweight & he loses that asset.

But, he would probably make more $$ in one semi-significant heavyweight bout than he can in several cruiser fights.
