    The only big names he faced were Bowe & Vitali. Tucker was way passed his sell by date.

    It is a shame for him the 200lb cruisers did not exist in his prime

    jaffay, I like your list better then colin's although Vitali > Tua.
    Vitali won the WBO title and defended it twice (his loss to Byrd was in 2000), Tua didn't even get his ill-fated title shot until 2000.
