    He got smashed badly by Lennox Lewis. And Lennox Lewis was just barely coming into his own. I don't see how Morrison had any chance against him. I don't see Morrison beating any of the top fighters from that time. Holyfield, Bowe, Golota and Tyson all beat him. That jaw of his just had to much glass in it

    While Morrison did lose to Lennox Lewis he outboxed Foreman, he stopped Ruddock, and this is just my opinion Tommy had a hell of a shot to beat Bowe, I'm 100% certain he had the style to beat Golota, and he could have had a good go at Moorer too. I think in his day he would have given a poorly trained Tyson to task..don't know who'd win, I'd lean towards Tyson.

    As for the HIV/AIDS conspiracy theory, I just don't buy it, its too far fetched.

    Knowing Morrison would go directly at him, I think Bowe would of used his height and jab and kept him at bay. Landing enough to stop him around the 8th. Golota-Morrison would of been a war. But Golota clearly trumps him in the chin department. Golota in 2. I'll give him Moorer. I think Morrison would of got him

    Golota was a fuck up and a quitter. You can't count on him to win any fight even if he should.

    I forwarded the questions regarding lesions, weight loss and recieved a response earlier on. Please note the original email address I gave you-shoud you wish to contact Tommy was in fact the one for Trisha-his wife. The one contained in this response from the Duke is his personal email. He has assured me you can all contact him with questions.

    To andygb:
    Ever heard of pruritis?adderoll?surgeries?

    Email me direct bro if you want to know how many tattoos I have!

    Now let us ask you a "brilliant" question:
    Have you got a real live photo/em of the active contagious hiv virus?
    Do some research yourself
    Bro and if you need help ask your doctor in the UK to get it for you to send to me.
    You think you can handle that?
    Here's the email address:
    Tommythedukemorrison@yahoo.com

    VD I don't get how you predict Golota-Morrison...vs damn near every big puncher Golota fought he quit or got KO'd. You have to figure Tommy bullrushing him would have put the kibosh on Golota putting on some sort of boxing clinic.

    As for Bowe, Riddick NEVER fought a top puncher and right before Tommy got retired he whupped Riddick in sparring (not that it compares apples to apples, but it tells me it would have been competitive). Russ, can you back me up on that?

    If Morrison was going to be in a war it would have been with Bowe or Tyson and not Golota.

    You talking about early 90's Morrison. When he was a threat to any heavyweight. That's not the same one I'm talking about. If Morrison would of faced any them big names it would of obviously been in 96 and above. After the bashing at Lewis hands. Morrison was already on a serious decline going into the Lewis fight. He had gone life and death against Ruddock and had gotten a gift draw against Russ Purrity. Who bounced him of the floor twice. The beating Lewis gave him pretty much took whatever little he had left out of him. He would of been devoured by the divisions best. Obviously we never got to find out for sure cuz everybody knows the government decided it was gonna destroy Morrison just for kicks
