Floyd Patterson vs Micheal Moorer, primes.

[yancey]

15 rounds.

What happens?

People aren't jumping in on this one, eh?

Could be an interesting fight.

[Goodnight, Irene]

Patterson by decision.

A knockdown & a strong closing round seal what was probably already Patterson's fight anyway. Moorer had good timing (even at Heavy) & I think his jab & hook find success against Patterson's superior handspeed, but I still feel Patterson was the better fighter.

There is a chance either one stops the other. They both could punch, both could finish, & while each showed a lot of heart at different times, their chins weren't great.

My prediction:

It won't go 15 rounds.

[Robinson]

It would be a fun one to watch. As a Patterson fan I would love to
say that he wins it, but I do not think that it would be that easy
or clear cut.

I can see the fact that MM is a south paw with a spot on straight
jab will cause Patterson some trouble and break up Floyd's feel,
at the same time Patterson's ability to flurry and explode from a
low position would also in my opinion cause MM some trouble.

I do see this one being close and some what Yo Yo like. I am going to
say Floyd wins it on sheer pride and conditioning in the end, but I
am from the outset biased.

Sounds about right.

Could be a very interesting fight and I think Floyd generally wins.
