What happens?

Could have been fun to watch. In prime conditions both were dangerous. Both could box and brawl, but Moorer was more inclined to the rational style, than Golota. So Andrew would have been an aggressor there. Both weren't iron-chinned, but Moorer's chin looked weaker. The main question was, if Moorer could have been able to withstand Golota's pressure and punches. Moorer could have caught him though. I won't call that possible match-up an easy to be predicted.

Fun fight

"Unpredictable, hugely frustrating but talented" gets matched with his HW mirror image.

Tempted to think that Golota was simply the far bigger, stronger man and had the mobility and technique to ensure that he got to Moorer and was not always swiping at thin air. Golota was a seriously big man who could box and bang.

Golota does seem like a favourite until you consider that he was far more erratic/fragile man and often made terrible decisions mid-fight when opponents hit back and did not implode.

I'll go for Moorer on this one....but with perhaps with the bonus of Teddy Atlas get flattened/silenced by Golota in the inevitable and utterly chaotic post-fight melee

I could see Golota possibly catching, and knocking out Michael, but more often than not I'd lean toward Michael to frustrate him, and either take a UD or cause Golota to freak out and foul his way out of the fight or just quit or something.

Moorer was simply a better fighter. And there's no question who would be the more composed, cerebral boxer in the ring.

Golota would have had some physical and strength advantages, but a talented guy like Moorer would have solved him.

Golota probably quits somewhere along the way. What a flake.

Moorer by DQ. I have absolutely non doubt. Golata will get frustrated with the southpaw, and perhaps while winning on score cards, haul off and kick Moorer in the marbles.

Moorer by KO....

Similar to his fights with Vassily Jirov.. Frans Botha.. and Mike White...all slow, inept swingers... Moorer would Tee off on Golota and knock him dead in a few rounds -- or make him quit like Michael Grant did to Golota... Moorer would beat the much slower Grant too, much like he did to the plodding giant, Mike White.

Michael Grant would have beaten George Foreman... Grant was a super slow guy -- but just because of his height, reach, and length he'd eventually get his big rights on George like he got on Golota... If you were fast Grant was a piece of cake.

Nope!!

Yup!!!! Dominic Guinn was really fast -- and made a punching bag out of the ponderous Michael Grant

Golota was slower than whale shitt and Grant eventually was able to tee off on him freely.

I adjusted my comment to say:

I didn't want to be like you, and just make statements without any proof.

ON your best day you couldn't be like me.

Right.... Even on my worst day I couldn't get that incoherent.

Wow...that is far back. I am Shaka Zulu...

What's the subject here??? Andrew Golota vs Michael Moorer and not who makes sense and who doesn't. I think we all have out opinions of that based on our own prejudices possibly... Why not stick to the topic?

Moorer was too fast and too good a boxer for the oafish Golota who couldn't even beat Michael Grant.

I agree, but you're still here? I already posted my response. Perhaps you can read it earlier in the post. Ironic you would post about staying on subject! Lithium?

You said Golota might be winning on the scorecards and haul off and do a nut shot...

He didn't do that vs Lewis, Brewster, Tyson, or Grant.... And he wouldn't vs Moorer.... Moorer is no chump like Bowe.

Exactly what I said and exactly what I mean. Read the rest of the post and don't take out of context like an MSNBC talcum spewing liberal butt head.

I didn't take it out of context you tar spitting rednecked Trumpist...

Golota wouldn't be winning... Too slow and inept to get ahead on points... Bowe was wide open and dumb as a doorpost.

spitting rednecked Trumpist

I've never been called that! LOL! You don't even know me. (Thank God!)

BTW.... I'm no liberal...

I'm pro-life and for a balanced budget... I just think taxpayers get better bang for their buck by paying attention to peace treaties, not making provocative military moves, and paying attention to education, the environment, and renewable energy like solar... Clinton was my favorite president because he balanced the budget... Obama was a path to get us back to a balanced budget -- but that's been derailed in a hurry and we're heading back to disaster.

Great point, but I don't agree, and that's fine. You're ok Kalan! I hope you take the 'ugly' banter for what it is...just funnin'

When Obama took over from Dummy Dubya – the US economy was in CRASH mode Oogie.. Wall street was allowed to do whatever they wished and they crashed the economy with their unregulated schemes, like prior to the Great Depression.

When Obama came in MAJOR corporations had just been bailed out with taxpayer money.. MAJOR investment banks on WALL STREET had just been bailed out with taxpayer money.. 12 MILLION Americans were thrown out of work and hundreds of thousands were still losing their jobs every month.. The BUDGET DEFICIT WAS 1.6 TRILLION DOLLARS FOR THE FIRST FISCAL YEAR OBAMA WAS SADDLED WITH.

Bill Clinton left Dummy Dubya with a 275 MILLION dollar annual budget SURPLUS... Which Dubya blew immediately... Budget deficits got worse and worse in Dummy's 8 years in office.. Obama inherited a catastrophic economy on day one.. Bush inherited a dream economy on day one.. Dubya made the deficits worse each year like Reagan and Bush Sr did... Obama lowered the deficits each year like Bill Clinton did.. The way to twist this statistic is to blame Obama for spending the money to pull us out of the Great Recession.

Are you going to blame FDR for spending the money to pull us out of the Great Depression??? I DON’T THINK SO... FDR, Truman, Kennedy, Carter, Clinton, and Obama were fiscal conservatives.. Coolidge, Hoover, Reagan, Bush, Dubya, and Trump are crooks and liberals who hand out the money YOU pay in taxes to their corrupt buddies – while gripping firm control of the federal judiciary – which is the most corrupt it’s ever been.

That is the way Nixon and Reagan got out of going to prison for their crimes.
