Tony Tucker v Anthony Joshua?

[Ivich]

The best versions of both, how does it go?

I guess I would go with AJ since I never thought Tucker was that good. I not saying Tucker is a bum but is far from being a class A fighter. I always thought if he had pressed the fight against Tyson he would have won.

Tony Tucker. He’s better than anyone Joshua has fought and Joshua lost to anyone who's half decent. So there you go.

Tyson during those days was terrifying though, we never saw someone really game fight Tyson before he got into the drugs - but he certainly had an aura about him on fight night. Imagine Joshua under those same lights, he’d get knocked out before a punch was even thrown.

I've never been overly impressed with Joshua even with all his accolades. This would be a tough fight to call. Tucker could certainly pull off the win if he was on that night. He was faster and a better boxer in my opinion. There was just so much inconsistency in that era from almost every top heavyweight. It's crazy because there really was a lot of talent.

I have to take back what I said. AJ pre-Ruiz fight looked good. but there's that China chin we have to worry about. I'm not sure if AJ can beat the Tucker who fought Lennox. He did well against Lewis until he got jacked in the third. AJ doesn't have Lewis's power or skill.

Joshua never leaves home without one of his top tools__the rematch clause.

I agree. If Andy Ruiz could pull it off, so could Tucker

I'd give Greg Page a good shot at Joshua too.
