Tommy "The Duke" Morrison. A knockout puncher who took the Sports / Boxing world by storm for an all too brief moment in history. A joy to watch, as he devastated one opponent after the next with that tremendous left hook of his. From starring in Rocky 5, to holding the heavyweight title two times...This original documentary examines the rise, and then the very tragic fall of the Duke.

Some of those poor bastards in Tommy's highlight reel look like they were there to get KO'd, just judging by their appearance and reaction to his shots. They looked like they didn't belong in there. This aspect of boxing truly gives me a dark feeling, how some guys are absolutely pumbled just being used as a stepping stone to build somebody's undefeated record. Boxing doesn't allow defeats on a record like mma does.

Why don't you shout out how Jesus Christ creates a new life increasing masterpieces is Jesus Christ as the master that can put people pieces back in order. What happened in Tommy's life is everything Gods word teaches. will happen when you lose sight of the prize. when you take your eyes off of Jesus Christ. when you do your own sinfuln thing. your own strength to can't do it in your strength, you got to lean not on your own understanding but acknowledge God in all your ways and He will direct your steps. Like look at King David he was at the top he was a warrior he was doing great things because of God's wisdom and strength. He took his eyes off his calling and he looked out his window and got tempted by another's man's wife with let him to do evil as a result he got knocked down his kingdom was wrecked his own children turned on him his own beautiful daughter got raped you reap what you sow Jesus forgive us and have mercy I know from personal experience you don't want to disobey God people turned to God when you have time

Mercer was always tough as nails though. He said nobody hit him harder, and the body punches made him fart. All the common opponents Morrison had with Tyson have all said Morrison was a far harder puncher (Lewis, Tillis, Thomas, Williams, Ruddock). You could tell Lennox was terrified of getting hit with the left hook, the way his right glove was glued to his face. Some other opponents also said that Morrison hit them harder than Foreman did.

I grew up in Grove, OK 12 miles from Jay the Deleware County seat and they were our rivals. The tournament was in the now defunct to town of Pitcher, OK where we used to ride our dirt bikes in the chat piles. I remember winning my fight the first night. My older brother got his clock cleaned after making an ass out of himself during the introduction of the fighters. When they announced his name he turned to each side of the ring doing hi best Sugar Ray Leonard impersonation. Shortly thereafter he was counting sheep haha, and I was making fun of him that night as my mom and dad try to console him. Anyway the next night I knew I had to fight one of the mean Morrison boys. We had all heard of them as their reputation for fighters traveled the boxing circles. I remember seeing the family walk in and my heart sank. They did look mean and tough. The Dad was a big man wearing all black clothes I remember little Tommy blonde hair and all. It's been so long since that time but I still remember during introductions his brother took off his robe and I knew it was going to be a tough fight because I had never seen anyone I fought wear one. He stopped me in the second round scheduled for 3 2 min rounds. My brother being out of the tournament could only gloat seeing I had lost to the Morrison boy and he cracked my rib. So, years later I was married watching boxing on TV and there was little Tommy Morrison. I couldn't believe it. He had turned Pro ! I followed his career until his death. God rest his soul.

That's not a hell of a life. Hitting men until they fall down on the ground in agony. Sleeping with every woman possible, taking every drug possible, getting implants because you are so insecure, looking 70 at the age of 44 - NO, NO NO. Stop the madness. Call it what you will, it's not optimal by any means. I loved what I thought he was, not what I found he really was. I'm not perfect either.

Exactly what came first to my mind. When you are soo good at something, you start to think you are invincible and would never fall, but eventually everyone falls. He needed a coach/friend who could give him a reality check and put him back on track and keep him grounded while working on improving his techniques. Cus was that to Tyson, always keeping him grounded and laser focused imo and getting his fighter to show up and put in work every day even if you are the best in the world. Everyone needs someone like that in life who makes you wanna push but always pulling you back to reality and keeping things real.

I spent a day with Tommy Morrison, just a two months before he died. I was filming an interview, and the subject of the interview asked me to please hire Mr. Morrison to do "whatever" on set: hold the boom mike, get coffee, just basically be there and get paid. It was a philanthropic gesture, and I was happy to accommodate. Poor ole Tommy looked terrible; sickly, sallow, thin, frail, and sweaty. This man who I had idolized in my youth was now a shell of himself. Tommy barely talked all day, was too weak to hold the boom mike for more than a couple of minutes, and to be honest was surly, withdrawn and unappreciative. What a shame that this legendary, strong tough man would end his life in such a sad state. I mean no disrespect to Mr. Morrison, nor his friends and family- but this weird coincidence of hiring Tommy Morrison for a day happened to me, so thought I would share the story.

Love these documentaries because it gives me the full details on what happened to their careers. While I heavily enjoy boxing, I know I'm not the most knowledgeable in regards to history. Before this video, I always associated Tommy as the up and coming pretty boy boxer who starred in the Rocky 5 movie, proceeded to get knocked out by Ray Mercer, never won a championship and fizzled out from there. Boy was I wrong... This guy was a bona-fide champion and stud who overcame lots of adversity in his career. Winning the belt by defeating George Foreman and ACTUALLY defending it a few times...never knew that. Then has a comeback and proceeds to send Razor Ruddock to the shadow realm in spectacular fashion to win the belt again??! That's insane...

He was committed to staying healthy when he first found out he had HIV, but somewhere along the way, he was separated from his family and, eventually, from his sanity. He began to believe that was not really stricken with HIV and hooked up with a woman who not only fostered his delusions, but ignored the fact that he was slowly dying from it. I think if Tommy had stuck with his family and stayed on his meds and maintained his new role as a commentator, he’d probably still be around today. He was given a second chance at life after boxing and he just threw it all away.
