Anyone remember A two page article about Tony "TNT" Tucker from the year 1984? It was a good article introducing him to boxing fans. At the time Tucker was an undefeated prodigy and relatively unknown fighting across the country. It came out some time in 1984 perhaps in the summer. At the time boxing fans followed the sport mostly through magazines as ESPN was new back then. It was lengthy article with several pictures. Can anyone who has vintage magazines research it? It was a classic. I am trying to obtain a copy and need to identify the Magazine and month. Any help is great.

I had heard he had written his autobiography some 10 years ago.
it must have really had a small printing.
anyone seen it ?

You know, that magazine got lost along with some others I had. I would say Boxing Today, but not 100% sure.vatech1983 wrote: ↑07 Sep 2024, 20:56 It came out in 1984...................What magazine do you have?............

Tucker is one of a million fighters who says he missed the Poland plane.

It may have been BS. But Tony was seen as a prospect by a lot of people back then. One of Tomorrow's Champions, he was good.
