    Pinklon Thomas v Tony Tucker both guys in prime ?
    I would say pinklons prime was the Witherspoon and weaver fights and that jab was a hammer ‘!! I consider Tucker’s prime the Douglas and Tyson fight !!!! I just don’t think Tucker can do better than Witherspoon getting past that ramrod jab !! !!! pinklon Thomas 12 rd Dec over Tony Tucker !!!! I think pinky was older then he states I know was was an addict but he still looks 6 yrs older or so then what he states in the 80s !!! Or boxrec !!! Anyway who wins pinky v tucker discuss ?

    If it's the 1984 version of Thomas' then I like him here.
    The Thomas that beat Spoon was sharp, he'd get a decision over the Tucker that almost lost to Buster IMO

    Tony Tucker (Tyson fight) would be a problem for Pinklon Thomas, because he is not easy to knock out.
    That's why I predict Tucker to win on points.

    Good boxing match. I like the Pinklon Thomas who outboxed Tim Witherspoon to take a close decision over Tony Tucker.

    Tucker on points, more to his game, Thomas has a better jab, but Tucker is better at everything else, better at shortening his punches, better combinations and probably better feet, if he was willing to, he’d do more than him simply by throwing counters and more combinations and forcing the fight to come down to more than the jab.
    If he does this, he wins.
