Evander Holyfield vs Michael Moorer I # Highlights

[@81carlos]

Michael Lee Moorer (born November 12, 1967) is an American former professional boxer who competed from 1988 to 2008. He won a world championship on four separate occasions in two weight classes, having held the WBO light heavyweight title from 1988 to 1991; compiling 22 straight KOs in 22 fights and the WBO heavyweight title from 1992 to 1993; the unified WBA, IBF and lineal heavyweight titles in 1994; and regained the IBF heavyweight title again from 1996 to 1997 becoming a three-time heavyweight world champion.[1] Michael Moorer was an undefeated southpaw in his first 35 professional bouts. He captured the WBO light heavyweight title in 1988 which he defended 9 times. In 1991, Moorer moved up to Heavyweight winning the vacant WBO heavyweight title from Bert Cooper via TKO in 1992. He went on to defeat Evander Holyfield for the unified WBA, IBF and lineal heavyweight titles in 1994. He remains the only southpaw to win the lineal world championship at heavyweight and the only light heavyweight world champion to win a heavyweight world title on more than one occasion. Moorer is only one of four boxers over the last century that has ever won a version of a world title at both light heavyweight and heavyweight along with Roy Jones Jr., Michael Spinks, and James Toney.

As I know not only toney didn't win a title in heavy (test positive of diuretic after winning against Ruiz) he also didn't win title as light heavy. The other one instead of toney is a boxer who fought in the beginning of 20 century (I don't recall his name)

TCR Slot Car Who?

[@bklynautoman1688]

Guys like... Michael Moorer Tim Witherspoon Riddick Bowe Zab Judah Buster Douglas ...and a select few others who had their names in the spotlight, had fights that largely depended on how motivated they were to fight all 10-12 rounds. Guys who were very gifted in boxing ability, but didn't always show up with everything on a given night. Guys who frustrated the hell out of their corner men, with all it took to keep them motivated in the ring, and sometimes in the gym.

[@bklynautoman1688]

@Урош Раца i think Morrison was underrated. He was nicer than given credit for. I don't recall him coming in the ring out of shape. He was simply one of those guys who couldn't always make the leap on a big crucial fight. Sometimes he'd even be winning handily, but get knocked out. Page & Tubbs are definitely good mentions. They were right there with Witherspoon & Douglas as far as coming into the ring chubby. I've only seen about 4or5 of Jimmy Ellis' fights, and all i can recall is him reminding me of another boxer who was clearly motivated by Ali's style, but good at it, and coming up short. 7 of his 12 losses were against big heavyweight names who you'd have to respect who he loss to...guys like Ali, Frazier, Shavers, Lyle. And his 1st 5 losses were against top middleweights, before getting trained by Angelo Dundee. I've read about some seeing his skills declining as early as 1973, but i don't know of him having a rep for not being motivated or lazy.

[@adamdesanti6713]

Good eye. Holyfield would crouch down to dodge a punch and then jerk up as the guy moves forward from the momentum and try to catch guy with the top/back of his head. Incredibly easy to miss because it looks like he's just shucking and jiving. The master of the "accidental/on-purpose" headbutt. He knew exactly what he was doing. That with his PED usage, the most skillful cheater of all time.

2 cruiserweights fighting for the HW title. The winner was steroid free.

[@chuckhashman8633]

Any fighter that uses Steroids & steroids for endurance is a cheater!! Athletes who`s body changes drastically in size & muscle are VERY EASY TO SPOT!! Imagine if Tyson took PED`S--- no one would have stood any chance!!! Your NOT going to be bigger -stronger- faster at 30 than at 20!!! Jones in UFC is a prime example --he got caught.... There are a number of boxers who must be using performance enhancing drugs or who got away with it....... No one should be allowed to use them !!! Too unfair for other athletes in ALL SPORTS!!!

[@bhopirl4552]

holyfield tore his rotator cuff in the second round with the punch that dropped moorer

[@deadarmd]

Maybe that's when it happened and maybe not. I just know that all the cuff tears I've seen, you aren't holding your right hand up for more than two minutes, let alone throwing 200 right hooks after. It just plain isn't happening. You aren't turning the light switch on, you aren't grabbing the milk from the fridge. You aren't brushing your teeth.

Love Moorer always fought with a lot of heart considering he was a smaller heavy compared to his peers at the time. Never backed down from a scrap when forced to step up to the plate.One of my favorites...

[@harryheath2233]

Moorer had a suspect chin but he was a skilled southpaw with pop on his punch

[@FreestyleTunx]

@@harryheath2233 He was skilled no doubt. I think he knew he had a suspect chin but when anybody tried walking him down they knew he wasn't going to run..

[@StreetLethalRacing]

I think.l speak for everyone when I say I can only wish we seen a Moore vs Tyson with Atlas training Moore. Would have loved to see how Atlas would train against the peek a boo which was embedded in Tyson.... 🥊

If Holyfield hadn’t torn his rotator cuff in this fight he would’ve won this fight. And Foreman may never have won the title again.
