How does Michael Moorer's chances look of regaining a championship?

[RAMPAGE0017]

He hasn't yet jumped off of his " bum of the month " campaign, but how does today's version of Moorer do against the current title holders/contenders?

[The Tuaman]

Moorer was finished when Tua KO'd him 1!

Not too good

[NBT]

non existant

[Bigcat]

as good as Evanders..........

[lefthook31]

Doesnt look good. I know someone who knows him well, and he is basically broke, living in an apartment, so he is fighting for money more than anything. His chin was never good enough for the heavyweights and now that the fighters are even bigger than his era he has less chances. Moorer was argueably the greatest lightheavyweight of all time though.

[Arkanscott]

Doesn't he still have A.I.D.S.? How is even able to fight?

[Goose]

I dont think so.

I still would like to see Moorer vs Holyfeld 2 though.

You can probably download that fight somewhere on the internet :D

You're thinking of Tommy Morrison, another famous 1990s Heavyweight making an ill-advised comeback.

Based on what? His WBO belt and his lack of real elite opposition (not his fault though) at the weight?

moorer - too old

[Vantage_West]

i think moorer has more of a decent chance than any other comebacker.

he is quick for his size good jab takes body punches well.....cant say about his chin but his defence has defeinatly improved his power is amazing and he is one of the few southpaw heavywiehgts which is rare for the top elite.


it's hard to say on any former champion coming back but he has a good chance if peop;e want tp make a name for themselves then moorer looks the easy option. he doesnt have the chin which a heavy slugger wanting some cred would want.

it's good that holy and moorer are at the same time. you either pick the old and beaten ex champion evander or the small younger but weak chinned mike moorer.

[Vantage_West]

I dont think so.

I still would like to see Moorer vs Holyfeld 3 though.:good

[2ironmt]

shame their's no money at cruiser b/c he could probably still do very well there

WBO title with not one fight going the distance at LH. I would say thats pretty impressive. True the lack of competition hurts, but he was a force at LH.

[ryanty22]

forget moorer and run with the atomic bull. mccalls the man except for the crack addiction

[Heavyrighthand]

I'd think Michael Moore would stand as good of a chance as Michael Moorer.

But really, Moorer's KO of Jirov was a good shot and it was impressive to see that he still had that kind of power, late in the fight........, but Moorer was getting outboxed up until that shot. Moorer may have improved since then, but that was the last I saw of him.

He was a force but he definitely lacks the achievements @ 175 to be seriously considered one of the greatest there.
