I have 2 male cats, Tommy 4 and BJ 15. Tommy has been mounting and hurting BJ. BJ is getting cornered, bumped, and pushed around. Even when BJ is sleeping he lays next to him. If BJ goes somewhere Tom gets up and follows him. I'm going away for a week and I'm afraid Tommy will fracture his legs; BJ is skinny and Tom is fat.

You need to separate these cats. If you are worried about one cat being hurt, the other cat may have to find a new home.
Are they new to each other or is this a new thing happening? I had a similar issue. I separated them and the younger/bigger one missed her older counterpart and became loving after they were reunited.
I'm assuming Tom is neutered. If not, that would be the obvious next step. Then I agree separating them for awhile (a couple of pet gates) would be my next move.
Separate them.
