    They aren't comparable though are they, their attributes and style are different. Thompson is a better fighter based on what? His resume isn't close to Tuckers.

      I stated the ways they are comparable, which all went to the point the earlier poster was making. As far as resumes, Tucker's is better because he fought in a weaker era where it was easier to get a belt. Insofar as facing and beating top 20 competition, split decision victories over McCall and Orlin Norris are two of Tucker's 4 best victories. Thompson's TKO and UD wins over Krasniqi and Guinn are equivalent to those. If Thompson beats Pulev, which is 50/50, then they will be very close in that resume, outside of holding a title.

        You're trolling.............. That era was weak and Krasniqi and Guinn are equivalent to McCall.

Look up his history moron, Tyson never fought a leftie. Sanders was dodged by Tyson and most contenders back in that era, cause he was a dangerous southpaw who wasn't with team King. Learn boxing history moron, but then I guess you need two brain cells in order to do that.
            please,,, sanders was a totally different era,, doesnt take a genius to figure that,,,

            did ali dodge pinklon thomas
            did jones dodge ward,,
            did chavez dodge judah

            your acting as if mike was in his heyday and dodging sanders,,,

            mike was pretty much done and was just fighting for a paycheck,,,,

            But if you think mike was dodging sanders, more power to you..

            why dont you ask that question in a poll or in boxing history...
            you will get laughed at nonstop.......

            mike was totally shot yet you think he dodged sanders,,,
            maybe snaders was dodged by ranked guys in the early 2000's but mike wasnt even a force by then, just a name,,,,,

            its like saying sugar shane is dodging tim bradley........

            mike was way past his prime,, sanders was nothing more than an upper level journeymen,,,,
            the fight made no sense,,,,

                Agreed. TYSON all the fkkin way. Mike at 5'11 and 217lbs was a beast. I am not impressed by this HW era at all.

                  Maybe once Wlad fights the best of the era....
