If a young Mike Tyson turned up today on the HW scene, how would things pan out?

    Yeah that's why Oliver McCall is still fighting in title eliminators.:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

    This guy was Tyson's sparring partner over 20 years ago and is getting one fight away from a mado shot at a Klitschko........

    Tucker could easily be the third best HW in the world today if he were around and might even give the Klits a run for there money. An in shape Tucker is 6'5 220ish has good boxing skills, good speed, good power and he had a good chin.

    If Tony Thompson can go 11 rounds with Wlad and give him some issues I'm sure Tucker could be better.

    Tyson's style is the perfect foil for Wlads 1-2 and hold technique, and there's nothing Chisora (who gave current Vitali a **** load of trouble) can do that Tyson can't 10x better.

    You're telling me this guy doesn't look at least as good as almost all these "skilled super heavys" with the exception of the Klitschko?

    Telling me Thompson is definitely better? Fury? Helenius? Dimitrenko? WACH!?!?!?!

    Come on seriously. I'd favor Tucker over all those guys. Povetkin? Adamek? Arreola?

    Tucker would beat the Klits. jeez he was great till he imploded or was it a diet thing?

    Tucker was doing a good job with Tyson if its true that his hand had hairline fractures in the fight.

    Drugs I think. His weight jumped after the Tyson fight but he was still good for a few years after that fight.

    thanks for the info, dude.


    oh man the 80s were the shits for drug addiction. Of all the fighters that were moulded after Ali, peak Tucker was the closest thing to him, I reckon. Ali was responsible for a lot of speed HWs doping up when they realised they would never be as good as him lol even me, the hours I spent in the gym pretending to be Ali when I have two left feet in reality.I was a sad ***** at 23.
