Michael Moorer vs Max Baer

[uncle ben]

Could skill and a southpaw style overcome brute Force? Or would Moorers chin be crushed

An extremely interesting matchup and an in depth op that gives food for thought.

Maybe he'll learn from a ban?

Moorer's two biggest wins at heavyweight were against a belly fat Botha and Holyfield in the middle of a heart condition.

Baer may not only beat him, but may kill him...LOL

Moorer was a very skillful fighter. Baer not so much, apart from that big right hand.

I would pick the Kronk Gym product.

As good a lt heavyweight Moorer was he stunk as a hwt. Moorer lacked movement but he would step foreword or sidestep using his jab. As a Southpaw he was vulnerable to the straight right hand. Barr’s right was one of boxings histories strongest blows. If we are talking both men at their best that IMO would be the Baer who koed Schmeling in ten tough rounds vs the Moorer from his win over Holyfield. Moorer starts well outboxing Baer as Max looks for an opening for his right hand. At some point mid fight Baer lands a haymaker that ends the bout. I’d favor Moorer in perhaps a six round fight. 12-15 rounds eventually Baer tags him.

Is this what's known as a troll post?

Baer has a solid record. Moorer on the other hand is a bum.

Baers speed and power would be way to much for the glass chinned weakling.

Now Tua vs Baer would be a good fight.

I would favour Baer. He's a guy who actually hits hard enough
to hurt Tua.
Tua is also way stupider and slower than Baer.

And Baer has more heart than the mentally weak punchbag that is Tua.......

Baer sucked and partied too much. All he had was a punch.

Moorer is in the discussion for best light heavyweight ever. At heavyweight he was well rounded AND surprisingly carried his power up.

I'm with you that Moorer beats Baer for the most part, but, the guy is not in discussion for best light heavyweight ever, nor is he close.

[Napoleon Wilson]

Baer sucked and partied too much. All he had was a punch.

And yet his record is still vastly more impressive than Moorers....
