Did this come off in the end, in Darlington.

How badly did the 50 year old Tucker beat up the ex-pro?

I heard he boxed Dominic Negus at the Circus Tavern last Friday.

Tucker is blind in one eye.

Jesus christ that is sad. Tucker retired due to a detached retina didn't he?

I like tucker - though I heard a disturbing rumour about him, a teddy bear and his trainer before a fight....

Corrie Sanders simply has to be blind in one eye and was licensed (not in the UK thankfully) not so long ago.

that supposedly took place before the Hide fight didnt it?

No wonder he went out so 'limply' against the Dancing Destroyer

Well yes; I guess he blew his wad before he even got in the ring....

Tucker could have been an all time great.... another one lost to coca cola generation

Why do people just hint at things so often on this forum? You're anonymous so just spell it out.

What happened with his fight with Dominic Negus then?

Whats this nonsense about him,a teddy bear and his trainer before the Hide fight?

What a load of bo llocks.

Tucker fought top travelling lad Lewis Welch in Houghton Le Spring near Sunderland on Saturday night. Not sure where the Negus rumours came from but as Saturday's fight was a glorified spar in reality he may well have boxed the night before. The 'fight' was eventually scored a draw. Former good amateur and pro champion Ian Cooper won again. 'Super Cooper' an absolute machine. Wonder how things might have went for him if that Ojay 'loss' and subsequent jail term never happened? Could have really done something I reckon.

You can't be too libellous on forums. Just imagine the scene, 'allegedly' - before stepping into the ring, an alleged former heavy champ, was disturbed whilst holding an alleged teddy bear and being given an alleged blow job by his trainer......allegedly....

What on earth is that suppose to mean?

So Tony Tucker was hitting the pads and warming up for a fight, suddenly stops, clears out his whole team, grabs a teddy bear, drops his shorts and gets his one remaining trainer who happens to be homosexual to give him a suckjob?

Where was this reported, the Daily Sport?

Even a severely retarded person with the most limited mental abilities would dismiss the notion as complete b ollocks.

Well that is the story doing the rounds

overhand_right · Post by **overhand_right** » 02 Apr 2008, 13:33

Well i'm starting a new story that after their fight Graham Earl and Yuri Romanov were spotted dancing to Kylie in a gay bar in Soho and drinking Sex on the Beach cocktails.

Can we all comply and ensure this story does the rounds, as it will apparently aid its authenticity.

Cheers!

No it was before Lewis in 1993 at the Mirage Hotel.

boxingchat · Post by **boxingchat** » 03 Apr 2008, 09:58

Alledgedly - The truth is...Don King went to his Hotel suite at the Mirage before the fought Lewis to get some paperwork signed and the door was ajar. King entered with his legal guy and Tucker was sat bollock naked on the edge of the bed, clutching a Teddy Bear, sucking his thumb, whilst his trainer, A poof, was on his knees giving him a nosh.

If only Lennox had known they would have held on alot more in the fight I'm sure. Alledgedly, that was the only really bent fight of the last 20 years!

jamesmcdonnell · Post by **jamesmcdonnell** » 03 Apr 2008, 10:12

I'm sure there's a perfectly reasonable explanation for all this......

Hilarious stuff. I've never heard this rumour before, what a disturbing image!

Old bones Ian · Post by **Old bones Ian** » 03 Apr 2008, 10:19

Yes , this all sounds very believable. Of course you would leave the door ajar if you were getting a quick blowy off your trainer.
And of course Don King and his Legal Guy would be sneaking up the corridor not making any noise at all.
And where did the teddy bear come from?

I must say, it does reveal Tucker as a surprisingly sensitive soul. Was 'careless whisper' playing in the background at the time?

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 03 Apr 2008, 10:21

Oh god I will have this vision in my head all day now... cheers guys.

jamesmcdonnell · Post by **jamesmcdonnell** » 03 Apr 2008, 10:28

"Time....can never change......."

Slurp-slurp-slurp

Contracts Mr Tuck.....Oh my goodness.....only in America!

If his hair wasn't standing on end beforehand, it sure would have done after that.

You should read the Atlas book about Moorer, there's some better stories in there (including the infamous "If you won't fcking fight him, I will!" one). Moorer was like a toddler.

There's a good Leon Spinks story in Thom Hauser's book (Muhammed Ali - His Life & Times) where Leon gets to Caeser's for the Ali fight and he gets out of his limo and jumps straight into an empty limo and drives off on a 24 hour bender.

Jaysus, some boxers take this pre-fight ritual stuff a little too far....

No wonder 'guilty feet have no rhythm'.
