Tommy Morrison Vs W.Klitschko
I think a focused Tommy could take the Klitschko, Tommy was a damn good inside fighter that could crack and had loads of pressure in which Klitschko does not like. Morrison would have to stay on the inside and not let Klitschko set up the Jab. Who do you guys think.

Re: Tommy Morrison Vs W.Klitschko
Morrisson would have a big big chance, but he had a problem with defense and a long powerful guy like Klitschko would pose a big ask.
Mercer would do very well I believe
Re: Tommy Morrison Vs W.Klitschko
TM would have a chance coz his left hook was one of the best in the game.
But I think Klitschko would fight very negative and keep his distance and pick him apart.
Good match up ;D
Re: Tommy Morrison Vs W.Klitschko
Im just thinking back how a similar fighter Lennox Lewis pickied apart Morrison from long range although Wladimir wouldn't be anywhere near as aggressive as Lewis he could still pick apart Morrison or we could see Morrison laying out Wladimir with his trademark left hook its basically a flip of a coin.

Wlad by Ko after some rocky moments.

Re: Tommy Morrison Vs W.Klitschko

Agreed
Re: Tommy Morrison Vs W.Klitschko
I am little late to the game now but Wlad would probably KO him within 6
Re: Tommy Morrison Vs W.Klitschko
Big fan of both but Klitschko would probably stop Tommy but Tommy would be dangerous at all times due to his left hook.

Through that description it would've been a crazy 6 minutes!
Re: Tommy Morrison Vs W.Klitschko
glass jaw vs glass jaw. Morrison has more power and Wlad has more skill. I'll take skill over power any day.
Re: Tommy Morrison Vs W.Klitschko
I posed this question a few years back (except it was comparing Morrison and Cooney to the Klitschko bros), around the time Vitali pulled his "No Mas" with Chris Byrd.
The response then was overwhelming for Morrison and Cooney, looks like not much has changed in the public's opinion since then.
Re: Tommy Morrison Vs W.Klitschko
Wladimir and Vitali are HANDS DOWN better fighters than the likes of Cooney and Morrison.
Wlad-Cooney would have been a decent fight as Gerry had a decent chin until he got busted up by Holmes but his quality of opposition was HORRIBLE. Wlad has a jab that is second(if that) to ONLY the guy who slaughtered Cooney and Wladimir has a whole lot more power than Larry Holmes ever did...Wlad by mid/late stoppage
Wlad-Morrison this fight would have been more difficult for Tommy than for Wlad. Wlad has height, reach, weight, and strength on Tommy and I take a good 1-2 over a good left hook any day of the week. Wlad has a GREAT jab and would frustrate Tommy and after Wlad laid into him with power shots Tommy would clam up and the ref would step in mid/late rounds and stop it.
Vitali would have hammered both Tommy and Cooney and been done before round 4.

you damn right brother, TM left hook was a killer and still is, tommy lost his way after rocky 5 and the whole HIV shit, people expected to see TOMMY GUNN and he believed he could live that charector, his style was great and his power was under rated, his left hook would sink any one, the only other fighter with that left was TUA (RUIZ) remember that fight lol wicked display!
Re: Tommy Morrison Vs W.Klitschko
The battle of the glass jaw. In a fight like this you have to go with skill. I think Wlad would keep Tommy on the outside with the jab. Then the first big punch he lands good night Tommy. Wlad by 4th round K.O.
