Morrison found himself in a war with Ross Purity and I thought Purity won off the 2 knockdowns.Quote:

Mercer was really Helter Skelter. He looked terrible with Fergusson and a slob with Wilson and if he showed up same vs Bruno he could be really outboxed and held off with Brunos pop. Then again he retooled and looked top notch after card was scraped when waring with Holyfield in next fight. If the in shape Mercer fighting off that stubby hard jab went with Bruno he would grind his way to a dec.
I was reading Boxing monthly and basically the promoter did not have the money to for the event so it was called off at the last minute. Mercer had a solid chin and Bruno could hit so I always wondered which would give way first.Quote:

Mercer had hepatitis didn't he? I think he had a long layoff due to that.
Didn't Morrison do roids AND get pec implants?
Morrison vs Hide... I'd go with Morrison but Herbie definitely had the power and speed to end Morrison's night at any time.
Have to go with Mercer against Bruno as well.
