    Another underachiever... Even though he won a title he could have been better.... Tucker had good skills,Big Hw,Power and a chin.. But even in his prime he fought lazy sometimes... Buster Douglas schooled a tame Tucker for most of the fight till Buster basically quit... Also shy with Tyson although he wobbled Tyson when he did decide to do something.. Tucker could have gave Prime Tyson some trouble if he wasnt gunshy in that fight.... Even when he was past it and a gatekeeper type in the 90s, he occasionly came up with good wins.... BUt Let Seldon off the hook after huritng him in a title shot,. , Even ,Somewhat competetive with lewis when he decided to do something.
    ..
    He had the tools to give Wlad all he wanted and power to hurt him.. BUt would find a way too lose.... Wlad wins clear decision after surviving a couple scares.

    Vlad would take Cooney out within 5 rds depending on how fast he would push Cooney was very frail compared to Vlad...Vlad could do everything better than Tucker who was not as good as Thompson. Vlad takes out Tim Witherspoon after Jabbing his head off for 7-8 rds. Witherspoon was always in slow motion and all of his big wins were squeakers, he did stop a green Bruno but Bruno was very stiff and beatable

    Surely you mean Thomas, not Thompson... :huh

    Even the Past-Prime Tucker who Lewis beat in '93 is better than Tony Thompson.
