    I agree with you to an extent.Tony had not developed enough to really handle Lennox, but I could see the late 80's version of Tucker hand the late 80's version of Holyfield a hard fought decision loss based on his boxing ability.

      I strongly disagree, as in no way in hell Tucker ever had the talent or heart to ever beat Holyfield. Any version of Holyfield> any version of Tucker

        I have some questions about Tony's heart, but those skills, if late 80's, could derail Evander.But Tony better be in shape.

          IMO Tucker was by far the best of the 3 guys tyson won belts off of to unify back in the day (not counting lineal)

            I agree with that and think that at his best Tucker was a better heavyweight than Michael Spinks too.

              I think Spinks was better. Tucker had the tools, but he tended to fight at the level of his opponents and keep a low workrate.
