Michael Moore vs Razor Ruddock

[SilverMiles]

How would a fight between these two at Heavyweight go?

And could a fight between the two have possibly been made?

Looking at what each fighter did and their style I would favor Michael Moore but I wanted someone to drop some knowledge on me about the styles and situation.

I'll go ahead and drop the knowledge that it's Michael MOORER- not Michael Moore- unless you mean that fat guy who makes documentaries.

Lol, forget the other R. So who you think would have won?

I think this is a back and forth fight between Moorer's skill and Ruddock's will. The Razor would be throwing big bombs while Moorer tried to wait him out and counter with his own shots. However, I'm not sure I see a clear winner. Would be a chess match until somebody landed and honestly, I see Razor recovering better from Moorer's punches than the other way around. Razor by late rounds KO. And I say KO, because once Moorer got hit with something big, he was O-U-T.

Moorer was mentally weak and only picked himself up for a handful of heavyweight contests, not to mention he was lazy as hell. If Ruddock could come in shape and try to outwork him, he'd beat Moorer.

Having said that, MM was talented, quick hands and good skills, it's just that these attributes rarely worked in tangent.

I think Moorer would have KOd Ruddock myself and probably pretty early, somewhere around the fifth round. Moorer could crack pretty good and was a very talented fighter in his prime. Ruddock would knock your head off if you let him land but I dont think Moorer would be available for the smash to land. He would box until he could lay it down. I could be wrong though and Ruddock knocks the guys head into the first row. See Tua vs Moorer.

This. Ruddock was slow as molasses but you feel at some point he catches Moorer and that's all she wrote. Moorer went in with 2 mammoth punchers in Foreman and Tua and neither fight ended well.

It's the type of fight where Ruddock could make a bunch of mistakes and still win but Moorer has to pretty much fight the perfect fight because one mistake will end it.
