was tysons power overrated?.

Didn't a 34 year old Holyfield eat a 30 year old Tyson's best punches before stopping him? Tyson was exposed by journeyman Buster Douglas, yet you're still worshiping him, funny stuff.

first of all why are you turning it around? we're talking about a prime tyson and his early opponents on the way of him unifying the title.

we're not talking about post prison tyson who was past it

second, buster douglas was not a journeyman. if you have watched his other fights besides the ones with tyson, and holyfield, you'd know what im talking about

[Jim Jeffries]

and how is Tony Tucker any worse than anyone Wlad or Vitali has faced?

Tucker was 6'5 with 82'' reach, and tyson outboxed, outfoguht, and outjabbed him

Tony Tucker was a journeyman with an inflated record of tomato cans. I'm glad you're infatuated with his stats, but he would struggle to be a top 20 contender today. Do you seriously think Tucker is better than Lamon Brewster? Even Sam Peter?

listen tucker today would present more danger physically to either Wlad or Vitali more so than did calving brock, or chris byrd. or for that matter a small fat southpaw like sultan ibragimov

Some fighters you are just not going to ever knock out.Mitch Green has never been down amateur or pro, and he's been hit by some good ones.

The same Douglas that was a 42-1 underdog? The same Douglas that was previously stopped by David Bey, Mike White and Tony Tucker? That Holyfield slaughtered in 3 rounds 8 months after Tyson fought him?

Even Lou fricken Savarese knocked him down 3 times on the way to stopping him in the first round. Journeyman is being kind.

Tony Tucker may not have been physically as strong as Peter or Brewster, but neither of these 2 come close to the boxing skill and ability that Tucker had

Douglas held solid decision wins over Greg Page, Mike Williams, and Oliver Mccal, not to mention he gave a tough fight to tony tucker

a lot of people underestimate Douglas, who was a very talented but lazy fighter. However you want to put it, buster was nowhere near the journeyman level

You bragged about Tucker's 35-0 record when he faced Tyson. Name me one top 50 guy he beat in those 35 fights, except maybe Buster Douglas?

So a past it Page and Williams and two more journeyman, that's your evidence? Trust me, journeyman is being kind.

See ya son, looks like premium ownage to me.

Tony tucker was one of the best in the division at the time, he sure as hell would lay a beat down on guys like Samuel peter..fat slow untalented boxers.
