    Tucker in a close UD. I don't see Tucker being beaten by Berbick, Bey, and we know what happened to Douglas. Page was just never really that good imo, though I don't rate either of them high to be honest.

    Page at his best wins a decision.

    Yes indeed. Greg was the more talented out of the two.

    Page is an enigma, we really don’t know how good he was at his very best, we have evidence that he was very gifted, he dominated and knocked out Coetzee, dropped Mike Tyson in sparring.
    He should’ve been around 215lbs, but he always weighed a lot more, even at his best against Coetzee he was much higher.
    I think Page was the best of the rest in the Holmes era, a lot of those guys were inconsistent, Page, Witherspoon, Smith, Thomas, Tubbs, Cooney, in fact Holmes may have even been the best players with his consistency being the deciding factor, I’d say Page was the most gifted all round excluding Holmes, I don’t think we ever seen the best of Page, even in the Coetzee fight since even then he was overweight, so I take Tucker to beat any version of Page that existed, but if he ever got to his optimal weight and was locked in, I may be giving a different prediction, but we’ll never know.
