If that is exposed then Tyson did an excellent job.
Tucker had some success at different moments of the fight even though his constant holding uglied it up a bit. I give credit to Tyson for staying focused and not getting frustrated. Tucker's jab worked effectively in some rounds too, not many but a few. He even rocked Mike with an uppercut.
Tyson was impressive, but far from looking like "The Baddest Man on the Planet".
Tucker fought a defensive and negative fight which would make any fighter look bad.
Perhaps because he had a broken hand
Perhaps he would have got knocked out if he tried to win the actual fight. Goes both ways.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
