He had better jab and footwork than Tucker and hit harder. And his heart was too big and he was too tough
In his day you had hard men. Tucker wouldn't last if he had to fight the likes of Willard, Brennan, Firpo, Carpantier, Miske etc. They did manual labor and had to struggle. Did Tony Tucker ever do hard manual labor? Did he??
What the f..k has that got to do with anything ?!? Doing manual labour doesn't make you a better boxer. And the guys you mentioned were jokes, Tucker beats them all with ease. Tyson KO's all on the same night.
Ok, I know you're just trolling... but just for the fun of it: do you think Tucker loses to Carpentier and Miske?
It means they were tough, rugged hard men. Tucker was a pansy compared to them. And Tyson would be in for the fight of his life against any of them.
The post is just fine,only stupid here is you because you defend few fighters because you are hardcore fan of another which is stupid and you do not have right and normal view of someone!I would now bring unpacking it so your stupidity would be shown! China Chinned Ruddock who was nothing special than one handed fighter who built his name fighting Tyson! He was knocked so many times that it was amazing and was stopped by anyone who was average!He was staggered by old Weaver and Smith and struggled to beat them!He was knocked by 2 ATG and one head hunter called Mike Tyson!He was knocked by Lewis and Morrison not by acumulation of punches but just with one punch shows how bad his chin was!The Jaco excuse of asthma attack which was proven as fake excuse instead of saying I quit!He did not have asthma attack he was just beaten but not by anyone but by bum LHW Jaco whom Morrison and Foreman knocked in 1st round! He just quit because Jaco was beating him and never backed!Tyson knocked him many times!Tommy?Tommy knocked him with single left hook!He was knocked by overhand of Lewis!He just hugged Tyson for whole second fight and Tyson bad stamina showed!He was even staggered so many times even in second fight! By the time same Walcott outboxed Louis and beat Charles!His footwork was still excellent!He was master of boxing with footwork and countering!Against TYSON IT WOULD BE QUICK?Just like he did quick with Tillis,Tucker,Thomas....and again no one of them had power,chin,stamina and boxing skills of Walcott!Walcott never showed skills as older fighter and he showed that against Louis! So Tyson beat washed Holmes and needed 4 rounds,struggled with Tillis,Thomas,Tucker...but he would do quick with Walcott who was superior in every department? Tunney is HOF who almost retired undefeated!He faced small guys who were more skilled than those big guys!Black fighters?Who was decent fighter who was black in his time who was not washed and even Jack Johnson ducked black fighters prove me wrong! Tunney is HOf who beat Dempsey twice,Heeney,Greb two times,Levinski,Lougharn,Carpentier,Gibbons...who were better than any name Tucker beat! Who was best Tucker win?Green Douglas and ancient Young?Even knowing those mans Tunney beat were small they were atleast young and in their primes!Those guys were better than anyone Tucker ever beat!How many black fighters Louis faced?All those MW and LHW were still better than anyone Tucker ever beat! Genne had faster jab,better hookds,more power and better footwork as well!Gene would not only outboxed Tucker but would maybe wore him down later rounds!If anyone got embarrassed it is Tucker because Tunney is better than ancient Young or green Douglas!
Dempsey was never scared of anyone and he beat anyone who was good because if he beat ancient Langford or Jack Johnson he would be what?Did not Wills lost against guys Dempsey beat very easy?Give me a brake of your troll craps!Dempsey was more skilled than Tucker!Better chin,power,stamina,speed,heart,determination....
Fulton and Firpo were all taller than Tucker and why you lied?They were taller,heavier and wider guys! Willard,Fulton and Firpo are proof he could beat big guys without going distance! Dempsey went two 1' rounders with Tunney and 10 rounds with Sharkey and all they were above 200! And Dempsey could knock guys late also unlike Tyson!
I prove everything arsehole with lack of knowledge!I prove everything with my facts!I put down your lying facts cold hard or whatever you call ted them!I posted few of them! Shavers is known for being one of the hardest punchers in boxing history. He scored 68 knockout wins (23 in the first round) and holds a 91.8% knockout-to-win ratio Not only that but he beat 4 HOFamers and how many Tyson beat?And even at old age he knocked guys whom Tyson could not! Every fighter who fought both like Holmes,Tillis and Simms stated Shavers hits harder! Another stupid lie from stupid troll!Thomas was knocked by everyone!He was knocked 6 times!Ruddock have far better chin?He was knocked by LHW bum and 3 guys! You call that far better than Walcott who was stopped 3 times in his life and had bigger number of fights? I do not think so only in your stupid troll brain! Walcott had better chin and I proved that! Again Walcott punched harder than anyone I mentioned stupid troll!He had bigger Ko ratio and did any of those guys could did to Charles what he did which proves he hit harder!He was slow?So slow that Charles and Louis who were equal fast as any Tyson opponent could not lay a glove on him?I again proved he punched harder than anyone I mentioned and had better chin!Tyson could not KO old Holmes and bum Tillis in first round so calm down please troll!Walcott would outbox him worse than Tillis did! He got!He was never knocked late and could bang in 12 rounds which proves he had better chin and stamina than Tyson!So again I put you down with my facts and he was more skilled than Tyson! Not only that but he never quit like Tyson,showed heart and had better inside fighting than Tyson who only could hug! I proved he was more skilled in any department! Tucker was a who?Whom he beat?AncieNT Young and green Douglas proved how weak he was!Clueless and other troll quotes you can put in your arse!Once again I proved not only that you are stupidest poster but that you are stupidest troll I ever met! Tucker was nothing and you are stupid! Nope he was not!He was not stronger not even faster! Tunney was never knocked so better chin!He had better stamina and heart also!Threw better combos than Tucker! Who had bigger KO ratio?Tunney again! Tunney was better in any department!Gene was stronger,faster,better jabs,combos,heart,skills,stamina,heart....and beat more HOFamers! Now get your stupid ass out of this nice forum before I put you so down you would start crying!Nobody gives a **** about troll because every hate you and make fun of you! You will say some stupid things and I would put you down again stupid troll!Now go home and get yourself a shinebox!
" the day jack fought Willard id have lucky to have lasted a round with him... Its because he could hit harder and move and think faster than i can . " max baer 1935
