    Impressive. Two very talented, athletic big men in there showcasing movement, handspeed, head movement, throwing bombs in there. Ey know how to turn over nice left hooks, they punch with leverage, have a good punch variety.


    Huge difference here compared to watching films of super heavyweights like Jess Willard Buddy Baer Primo Carnera, and I am sure fred fulton was equally as unimpressive.

    I remember this fight fondly, I got lucky and clicked on the TV right before it started stunned that it was televised :bbb

    This is the fight that made me think Buster could beat a non-focused Tyson. I had watched Tucker before but not so much of Buster and was shocked how good a fight this was for so many rounds, Tucker in the end seemed "calmer" and in better shape and from what I recall Buster started to fade and Tucker finally took him out :think

    Haven't watched this in decades, thanks I will check it out again :good
