    Floyd Patterson had the same style, how did he do vs Ali? Mike Tyson fought Lennox Lewis as well (similar style to Tucker and Douglas) and how did that go? Again, Tony Tucker had a broken right hand, that made a huge difference in that fight, plus Tucker lasted the distance showing that Tyson couldn't even stop a wounded fighter with that style.
    Tyson was Patterson on steroid, far more superior athlete. I might be wrong here, but I recall Patterson dropped D'Amato when he fought Ali and Liston, so D'Amato said it was Patterson loss, not Peekaboo loss

    Post prison, post Rooney Tyson was not using "peekaboo" against Lewis, he was fighting like most of Freddy Roach fighters , orthodox slugger . If you do not accept this argument, I officially demand your life ban by @Master

    So the peekaboo style is unbeatable? Kevin Rooney is training who now? If the style worked as advertised then wouldn't more boxers be using it? Or is it the fact that it's just so demanding and challenging only the best of the best can even begin to use it?

    Tucker fought a defensive fight and survived (as did Bonecrusher who fought a negative fight). Tyson would have preferred for them to take chances so he could destroy them.

    Bringing Lennox Lewis fight is silly but even Tyson won the first round in that.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Why would Tucker fight defensively?



    Oh that's right.....HE HAD AN INJURED AND LATER BROKEN right hand....do you maybe, possibly think that had an effect on how he fought Tyson?

    Yes it did and what I said was it may have not worked in Tyson's favour because Tucker was forced to fight defensively and not open up.

    And I'm just betting that fighting defensively isn't what Tucker wanted to do either....call it a hunch. If Tucker had a healthy right hand to land a right cross with would he have been more or less likely to hurt, knock down, or knock out Mike Tyson?
