1 - First of all, R.I.P. Tommy, it was a real pain to lose a great fighter. 2 - There was the Lennox Lewis that began to grow and grow with Manny Steward: both fitted like a glove to make Lennox a GOAT: that stiff jab pumping like a piston as the path to victory that painted so many faces, the left hook and that brutal uppercut and dominance of the ring you would not expect from Pepe Correa's Lennox... he acheived to dominate the ring, could switch from a cautious Lennox to a very agressive Lennox while facing always difficult opponents instead of "cherry picking" ordinary fighters: many young people comes now to watch this golden era of boxing in which every single fight was hard. 3 - A tribute to Mills Lane: one of the best referees ever that had a deep understanding of boxing. Stopping this fight was a clear "ok, good enough, nothing is at stake in there and none of the contenders deserves any unnecessary punishment".

But the diving issue is a blot on his record, not the first fighter to do and certainly not the last but big minus against him as a fighter.

Morrison was similar to Tyson in many ways. But the biggest difference, IMO, was footwork. Tyson was always grounded and sat on his punches. Morrison had a tendency to sell out his punches more, often 'jumping' to throw. Not only did this leave him vulnerable, but it also made the next punch less effective, and it also became a fatigue factor.

If he did fight while ill though Somebody's on his side is having blood tests for him and urine tests to cover it up, even thats very hard comprehend unless drug testing and disease testing wasn't as strict as it is today, they did test for such disease though like HIV and hepatitis c and b etc etc in those days, they did it in every sport except pro wrestling. I have heard that rumour though and read about it ,but i have never seen any official people such as the Commission certifying it as truth, if they did they would be liable in court for knowing he had HIV and letting him fight 58 opponents, it would also discredit them hugely as a boxing Commission they would most probably be prosecuted and shut down, and sued by 58 fighters I don't personally believe it my self even though i have actually watched people make video's about it and read articles about it

Tommy didn’t have a weak chin, his losses against Mercer and Bentt, he just got tagged good and proper. It happens. That’s heavyweight boxing. Morrison was awesome a tough SOB, with some good wins under his belt, a throwback fighter. Morrison could say have an arena fight with Lennox or Carl Williams then 3 months later fight at some hick bar room C/B level fight. He just fought, he had like over 200 plus amateur fights to with only like 20 losses. Retired at the age of 27, so think he still had a good 10 years in him. So we lost ten years of Tommy Morrison fights. He was good think he had something like 45 wins 2 losses. At 27. No one fights like that anymore.

One of the best uses of the heavy weight jab I have ever seen. Morrison was taken out early on by that powerful jab. Morrison totally got the approach wrong for this fight, he would have had a much better chance, if he had of risked getting inside moving his head (Tyson style) to fight a war with Lewis. Even then, Lewis right would have been very capable of stopping Morrison, but there was no way Morrison was ever going to win that fight bystanding on the outside and getting plummeted by that Jab. Great champion lewis, for me he never quite got the respect and world acclaim that he deserved. Loved watching Tommy fight, lots of heart, killer left hook RIP.

If Morrison who have not chose the wild party life - he would have been unstoppable! Best left hook in heavyweight history - IMO. At this point in his early career his body is already worn out beyond its former glory, and he is only mid-twenties here.

Agree...he didn't take care of himself but was really killing him here was not the lifestyle but HIV...he was already sick in 1995 and looked the part...a shell of himself ...a healthy Morrison would have given a better showing ...then this sick version of himself ....

You can find Morisson more attractive to watch but Lewis is a little too much. No one is more underrated than Lewis, I mean pseudo-expert Joe Rogan recently asked the strange question if Tyson Fury was the HW GOAT. By his logic Lewis doesn't even exist. This box fans generation seems to be confused.

I really think Morrison was very similar to Tyson, in his exciting powerful style, but also his knock out rate coming up the ranks. I'm sure people on here will say Morrison was no match for Tyson, but when you really look at it, they were both impressive with knocking out lesser opponents quickly on their journey up the rankings, & then both got complacent with training & conditioning, until both coming up short against real skillful boxers who could keep them at arms length. Would have loved to see them come together when they were both hungry fighters.

Tommy had a very good career although it could have been better if his defence was more tight. Also his pace needed to be more controlled, he gassed out early. He had the power, speed, and offensive skills for sure. He also had heart. One of my favourite boxers.

Watching this entire fight for the first time I'm actually impressed with Morrison's performance. Lewis is one of the 10 best Heavyweight Champions of all time, and this was when he was really close to his peak. Lewis was just too fast, too accurate with his punches, and had too much of a reach advantage for Morrison to overcome. Lewis, conversely, did everything right here. This was a fighter with a great game plan and he executed it to perfection. Morrison's main weakness being his defense, he didn't stand a chance against an all time great like Lewis. And it wasn't like he couldn't have continued - he could have - but Mills Lane knew Morrison was taking a beating and just couldn't figure Lewis out, and was very possibly going to get hurt if it went too much farther. Good fight, though.

Lennox ushered in the era of big heavyweights, Tommy was big too but Lewis was at least 6' 5" Emanuel knows that styles make fights and he had Lennox fighting the perfect fight for Tommy. Tommy too worried about his left eye and didn't have enough dog in him to let it all hang out.

Odd that Morrison or his corner didn't change tactics when their original plan was failing. What did Morrison have to lose by closing and staying closed to Lennox and fighting inside?

Excellent as always Mills Lane superb , this is the best I've seen Lenox Lewis fight, his body,his legs his jab he's so big it's amazing. Then that uppercut used Tommy's punch against him. It looked like he was very confident and wasn't going to let a white guy beat him. Also I had the great privlage of Meeting Emanuel Stewart he is a much better corner man basically one of the very best ever, ever. Tommy needed to catch him with a left but never was allowed to get off.
