Michael Moorer: Forgotten?

[Spray_resistant]

He was a very good fighter at his best, I think he ko'd every LHW he ever fought and ran his record against better comp than most streaks like that to 26-0(26ko).

If he was around during the internet age he would be massively hyped.

Really????????

possibly. he at least has 1 great win while vitali has zero. moorer has a couple other decent wins as well. vitali has more overall b level wins and certainly more c level wins but his greatness is based on fantasy and could haves.

[Holywarrior]

Forgotten in the same way and for the same reasons as Malik Scott and Alfredo Angulo will be forgotten?

Moorer is better than Angulo.

He was one of the best if not the best southpaw heavyweight and had a great win over Holyfield

[-MAKAVELLI-]

thinking back on Moorer, all i can remember is how annoying Teddy Atlas was as a trainer

I was making a connection between the fact that all the guys mentioned, and Moorer, are thought to have thrown fights. Moorer/Foreman, Scott/Wilder and Angulo/Canelo.

He competition was very poor though let's be honest.

Good fighter, talented but an underachiever.

Didn't do all that much.

He was a lineal champ and ibf champ.... Most guys would kill for a resume like that

Well yeah of course your average fighter would love that.

But on the grand scale of things his resume isn't good.

His LHW resume is very poor and his HW one outside of Holyfield isn't too good either.

Holyfields was a great win obviously but that's all he has really that's impressive.

Moorer is the first southpaw heavy weight champion ever.

And he lost an historic fight against Foreman making him the oldest winner of a major title at the time

he was winning on the cards when he got knocked out so he actually didn't lose. right vitali fans?
