100%......kudos to buster but I always said (around the I want to eat his children era) that the only man who would ever beat Mike Tyson was Mike Tyson
IDK...I don't think, at least by Tyson's own words, that Doublas was fighting against Tyson the bully. I don't know why he would lie about it, but according to Tyson he wasn't the same before this fight...and he decided to retire bc he had too much respect for the sport to keep going knowing that his heart was no longer in it like it used to be.
This legit made me feel like crying, Because it’s so fucking beautiful, both of them showed what the human spirit is capable of when completely determined. Tyson was a strong opponent but Douglas had a greater resolve, when he went down in the later rounds I can feel like he’s thinking i can’t go down like this as the judge was counting, he got up and kept grinding at Tyson and won. Such a beautiful fight.
I come back and watch this full fight a couple times a year, because it's just so interesting - the backstory, how the fight unfolds, and Douglas' inspiring performance.
Me and my brother watched this on HBO my brother was a big Tyson fan but when it looked like Douglas might win suddenly he started cheering for Douglas and when he knocked him down was going crazy,to this day never seen anyone go from a big fan of one guy to doing a complete 180 on someone. Just never saw that before that's what I always think of when I watch this
The thing with tyson is that his early style of fighting , peekaboo etc , constant knee bends side to side movement etc is very tireing especially as you get older .. what most of his fans didn't realise is that it's very hard to constantly fight that way as a heavyweight, I watched tyson from the beginning and my uncle told me tyson will not be able to keep up that style of fighting as he gets older... he was right... my uncle was a very knowledgeable guy when it came to boxing..
Great analysis. Agreed entirely. Tyson had to do the right things at all times to make up for his lack of size. He did that early in his career but did not later and it cost him. Some guys could get away with doing things the wrong way, Ali or Foreman comes to mind but they had physical advantages.
@@StreetStoriesEnt as he got older it was harder bro. He is a heavyweight! Cannot maintain thst style for 12rds. Watch the bonecrusher smith fight and tucker fighter were in his prime he is taken the distance.
Noticeably Tyson is not in his usual boxing style, that bobbing and weaving is not there, he look lost all through the fight. But you still give credit to Douglas, his approach on offense of not giving Tyson an inch to recover is incredibly delivered. The follow up after uppercut is extra ordinary.
At 42:44 is the first time ever that something was visible. It was the first time EVER that the fans saw the bottom of Tyson's shoes. You could say it was the first time we saw Tyson's sole.
@@asintonic tyson got a 14 count too. Anyway, as the inquest found, the FIGHTER’S job is only to listen to the referee and get up before 10. That’s what Douglas did. A person cannot lose a fight by listening to the referee.
@@BottleBri "A person cannot lose a fight by listening to the referee." What do you mean by that? What does winning or not winning fight has got to do with that?
@@yanair2091 people were saying Douglas should have lost because the ref did a long count? But Douglas did what any fighter is supposed to do and listened to the refs count and get up before ten. Therefore you cannot penalise douglas for the refs long count. This was all hashed out in the courts at the time.
I love how Douglas wasnt intimidated by Tyson. So many boxers were scared of Tyson, but Busta wasnt. Tyson, for most of this fight, looked lost and bewildered.
I started watching this fight on HBO at bedtime where I lived. I expected a quick knockout. My wife fell asleep. Finally Tyson floored Douglas and I started to turn it off. Buster got up. I kept watching it, I was enthalled with Douglas' grit and determination. That last round was amazing. You can say what you want, Tyson didn't train, blah, blah- but Buster Douglas had the heart of a lion, at least this one time in his life.
The man promised his momma he would beat Tyson and tho she passed away before the fight. Douglas was absolutely not going to break that promise cuz he knew just how much it meant to his momma. Beautiful display of determination and devotion to go against all odds and to not be defeated
Buster Douglas used to live right next to my mom in Gahanna, Ohio (Columbus, Ohio) right before he started becoming a star. She knew he boxed, but didn’t know a whole lot about him. She told me he was a nice guy and that they talked every once in awhile. My mom and I still live in Gahanna and it’s weird to think that years before I was born he was my neighbor.
He ref counted at the same speed for both the Douglas knockdown and Tysons knockdown, Buster Douglas listened to the count of the referee, a slow count maybe but Douglas just observed the referee.
Also, look at the rumble in the jungle between Ali and Foreman. That count was ridiculous. Foreman's head was raised after he fell. Ali hit like a little girl. Foreman was NEVER knocked out, but the "bought and paid for" referee IMMEDIATELY counts a lucid Foreman out then runs immediately out of the ring. LMFAO And further proof is that Ali walked away from millions upon millions fighting foreman to fight a worthless old white dude instead. LMFAO Facts
Thank you. Get tired of so called boxing fans bang on about the so called long count, and never give Douglas the credit he deserved for his great performance.
This is probably the best heavyweight fight I've ever seen. I remember watching it live when it happened. I couldn't believe it then and I remember in the aftermath people were incorrectly saying Buster got in a lucky punch. But no, this was a masterful fight by a contender who's destiny beckoned, and who was ready to step up and grasp immortality aided by some luck and timing and a fight team in his corner with a precocious strategy to beat the unbeatable. It's instructive and poignant to see how small Tyson looked when he was on the back foot with a closed eye and in a dark place he'd not been before. Brilliant! Bravo! To both. "If it bleeds we can kill it"
Just switched from Tyson v Tucker to this and the difference in Mike is striking. He's completely lacking the exposive dynamic movement of the Tucker fight, almost hesitant in the 1st round allowing Douglas to gain confidence. Tyson looks at least 10 years older in this.
Tyson was believing his own hype and didn't train as hard as he should have. The whole fight he is just trying to land that big punch and Douglas just accumulated so many punches they started to have effect. Boxing is 99% preparation.
Tyson was completely flat and showed none of the things he was great for, head movement, hand speed and combos, no footwork..He showed a great chin and heart!
Truly an immortalized moment in the sport. Buster Douglas' achievement on his night will never ever be forgotten. Not only because he pulled off an upset that nearly nobody predicted, but despite all the setbacks leading into the fight it did not stop him. If anything it, they were the fuels that drove him to this unforgettable triumph!
absolutely. compare this to a Tyson fight from 1985-1988 and it's obvious that he's not ready for this fight. He got beat but he also didn't bring his best by any stretch.
@@davidmoser3535 I wasn't alive at that time but I have seen the actual fight many times. Liston was undefeated for 17 months and he scared fighters before the fight even happened! And clay wasn't scared!
Beautiful ... I want to cry because the fight wasn't just against Mike. Mike was a symbol of everything negative in life. It was against what the world throws at you. What the world throws at you while you're down. An the man shows up and says not today not this fight. As a mother my self ... im glad the man had his moment.
Naw fam, he fought a drunk Mike Tyson's here, mike wanted to rematch buster Sober, but buster ran away, and literally LAID DOWN , against holifield, thought about getting up, but stayed down, to collect his money and was never heard from again....
It wasn’t that bad. The worst guy for clinching was Ali. Refs let him get away with more shit than anybody else because he was a money machine for boxing.
Tyson, just before this fight, fired Kevin Rooney and replaced his entire team with Don King's friend and family. This fight became the pattern for the rest of his career. It's to bad.
dont forget that a loss of love makes you realise what matters in life ... and when its time to fight .. you dont giive aa foooook about what happens ..... regardless of partying and everything else ... tyson knew the FIRE buster had for this fight .. he knew from losing CUS early on ..and he knew the flame of love was coming like a train towards him ... tyson loved cus and knew the feeling of that loss ... its all about love bois remember that
34:11 - You can count with the video's timer, from the time Douglas went down until he stood up was 14 seconds. The ref's slow count surely helped, it could've easily have been a KO.
great story!! This was the first boxing match I ever watched. My dad actually bought the pay per view...another first for us. He wanted me to see Tyson the Invincible. I saw THIS. It was a good introduction to boxing, honestly
Mike gets all the glory and respect in the end, but never knew love. It was sad seeing him so desperate to get up, Cus turned him into a machine and Mike understood it as love.
It was all of the above Mike was on a fast track to hell cus and boxing saved Tyson made him rich famous and legendary he beat the odds and became somebody cudos to Mr Mike Tyson ☝️😃
Not excuses but a fact That from opening Bell mike was completely flat! HE showed none of skills, stationary target, no hand speed, 1 punch at a time, no footwork..Anyone who seen all his fights will tell you
Mike Tyson prime years were different he still could have been the most dominate heavyweight of all time you see Mike Tyson was all about skills when he was with cus but after that it was all about being an animal & conquerer along with aggression & bad lifestyle outside of boxing to wear the body doesn’t respond they way you want it to if Mike kept on polishing his skills history would be different
@@BoxOf0121 Tyson could never have the dominant type of career that Ali, Lennox Lewis, or Tyson Fury had. He was washed up even before he was 30. He never dominated the fighting world like the 3 mentioned here.
Douglas was at his best, but very clearly Tyson from opening bell was at his worst! No spring in legs. No hand speed, no combos, stood in front of Douglas and made Douglas look good! Tyson like a champ reaching for mouth piece while hurt, Douglas in rd 3 of next fight taking out mouth piece and quitting
Buster displayed the beauty of boxing the entire fight with his movement, use of the jab, his lion heart and by puting it all together. Just beautiful to watch his skills.
I can't believe he didn't get tired pushing out of the clinch so often in the later rounds. Tyson was just grabbing him and holding on for dear life, and allowing Douglas to push him off over and over.
Тайсон уже знал что проиграет этот бой, проиграл специально назло дон кингу, такие ходы в боксе тоже существуют... психолог Глубочайшего Бурения великий Воланд 👍
Seen this fight 20 times and Buster was counted out by the 10 count. He got up at 12 on my count every time since i saw it live in the ‘90s…Tyson got robbed! The ref dragged the hell out of the 7, 8, and 9 smh!!!
Incredible to see how Buster Douglas bent Time to his will and was able to get up in 13 seconds in under 10 seconds. A true testament to the indomitable will of a powerful Sorcerer.
mi gran admiración para Buster Douglas gran campeón un verdadero campeón su victoria tiene un sabor especial le ganó al mejor del mundo en su mejor momento
Tyson looked so disengaged with all of it, especially when they would brake where there was no bounce in his step on the ready. If you loved Mike like we did back in the day when we witnessed this live then you would’ve felt just like me so sad and so much pain to watch him in this fight knowing that if Cuz was there.... well let’s just say we still love you Mike.
Tyson whined about Holyfield using his head. This fight just like every other he uses his head and elbows as weapons, especially once he starts getting hit.
Strange, Buster had all the attributes to be seriously a great fighter - Height, natural heavy, Acumen, jab, speed, footwork, right hand power, punch portfolio,balance - I mean on this night he was perfect. He just didn’t have the mentality to live like a professional athlete… something missing but in this night I would give him a shot against any heavyweight in history, he was beautiful
Ill bet kevin rooney was sitting home shaking his head yelling at the tv mike use the 5 and 7 move your head plus kevin had a gambling problem he probably put every thing he had on mike that night!!
Here there are, the best heavy fight of all times: 1). Ali - Foreman , Zaire 1974 2). Marciano- Walcott, Phill 1952 3). Ali- Frazier, Manila 1975 4). Douglas- Tyson, Tokyo 1990. 5) Clay- Liston. Miami 1.964.
Pfft BS! You just name this one and a few main media named classics. Pic one of the Bowe/Holyfield trilogy or prob 2, 3. AlivsFrazier is way more of superior boxing, Foreman was just punching wide and sloppy and Ali let him tiring out. Also Lewis/Holyfield was hard and good fighting
Back in the day people had boxing fight parties , most of the Tyson ones were short parties , I remember the night of this fight nobody was going to the fight party , I said I dont know he 's about due to get beat .... well he went down that night , then went to jail.
Lost in all this is how horrible Jim Lampley's call is. The guy is so obviously in love with Tyson and fawning all over him while looking forward to Douglas failing. And the whole "loosey-goosey" comment is flat out embarrassing. Nevertheless, love that Tyson lost here yet am still amazed at how barbaric boxing is and what a disgrace it is that humans haven't outgrown such an obviously corrupt and immoral "sport".
I distinctly remember after the nba allstar game in 1990, after commercial, the commentator (don't remember who) said something to the effect of , " If you thought this was amazing, wait'll you hear this. Mike Tyson has been knocked out." It was the most unreal, just weird thing to hear. Mike Tyson was literally thought of as invincible. It was also late at night, which added to the weirdness.
I won't take anything away from Buster Douglas, but you can tell Tyson did not have that killer look at all, all of the other fights he fought, he would basically win the fight before they started during the introductions....Tyson was not in shape, he came in like who cares! Just my two cents...and I did watch this fight in 1990 when i was in the Phillippines
Even when Mike was in his so called prime. I guess the 80s before Rooney got fired, he had a problem with taller fighters with reach. He’d win but the fight wouldn’t be no first round knockout.
I lost $50 on this fight.I never bet on Tyson again.I was in shock,he didn't train much for Douglas.He underestimated the man and got knocked out,plain and simple.
at about 0530 on sunday morning february 11th 1990 there was a handwritten note in our ft knox chow hall( basic training) that mike tyson lost. we were not allowed to talk... but GD!!!
He couldn't because Don King had him tied up with traveling state to state, flying from city to city all across the USA for months to talk with his lawyers. Buster was drained and finally only had about 5 or 6 weeks to suddenly train and get in shape for Holyfield. He was exhausted, mentally, physically, stressed out, jet lagged etc.etc. Don King is a POS con man and always was.
@@bobber0623 anything can happen. Mike was losing this fight until he landed a massive shot. same goes to almost every heavyweight fights that the other guy was losing until he wasn't.

great story!! This was the first boxing match I ever watched. My dad actually bought the pay per view...another first for us. He wanted me to see Tyson the Invincible. I saw THIS. It was a good introduction to boxing, honestly
What a dumbass Liar you are
good story, sounds super fake and attention seeking, but cool story bro!!
Mike had lost his eye of the tiger in this fight
Despite this lose, Mike Tyson is still the greatest boxer of all time if you watched all his fights
Su questo non c'è dubbio.
Holly Field
Mike is one of the greatest
Without a doubt my favorite Tyson fight
Mike gets all the glory and respect in the end, but never knew love. It was sad seeing him so desperate to get up, Cus turned him into a machine and Mike understood it as love.
Most boxers are trained to get up
@@AnthonyRobinson-dc3pq.Well douglas in his next fight stayed down in rd 3..even took his mouthpiece out
It was all of the above Mike was on a fast track to hell cus and boxing saved Tyson made him rich famous and legendary he beat the odds and became somebody cudos to Mr Mike Tyson ☝️😃
@@chincheck739 yes Don king tied buster up in court trying to get the title back on some bs long count
@@chincheck739 buster came in against holyfied out of shape and unmotivated
Best fight I have ever seen! It had everything, skill, courage, patience and an over confident champion knocked off his throne.
Tyson's mind is somewhere else from first 30 seconds
Tyson was robbed! buster went down, that was a 14count!
@@asintonic13
This was Buster''s fight from the start, counts or not.
Exactly. People get too tied up on counts and bullshit. Buster was the better man that night and beat Mike up bad
Bullshit, if the Ref was a Pro, things would've been different good or bad for Mike.
Buster's mom died and he said he was fighting for her, never underestimate that.
@@nathanielgathing659 nothing could have saved Mike except a lot more preparation.
The comments section is full of Tyson fanboys making excuses for his loss . What a shame
Not excuses but a fact That from opening Bell mike was completely flat! HE showed none of skills, stationary target, no hand speed, 1 punch at a time, no footwork..Anyone who seen all his fights will tell you
The fact that he fulfilled his promise to his mom is amazing. He promised her mom that he would beat Mike Tyson before she passed away and dayum 👏🏼

Imagine being only 24 years old, absolutely in your prime, and getting your ass beat by a no name.

Mike Tyson prime years were different he still could have been the most dominate heavyweight of all time you see Mike Tyson was all about skills when he was with cus but after that it was all about being an animal & conquerer along with aggression & bad lifestyle outside of boxing to wear the body doesn’t respond they way you want it to if Mike kept on polishing his skills history would be different
@@BoxOf0121 Tyson could never have the dominant type of career that Ali, Lennox Lewis, or Tyson Fury had. He was washed up even before he was 30. He never dominated the fighting world like the 3 mentioned here.
@@mts7274 lol tyson fury has not dominated at all
@@MrMov1es Tell me one top current heavyweight who has beaten Tyson Fury. I can tell you PLENTY of heavyweights who beat the crap out of Mike Tyson.
Underrated fight tbh, Douglas fought fantastically well.
How is it underrated? This fight is famous even among non fans.
The result is famous yes, however the actual fight itself was underrated imo.@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017
Douglas was at his best, but very clearly Tyson from opening bell was at his worst! No spring in legs. No hand speed, no combos, stood in front of Douglas and made Douglas look good! Tyson like a champ reaching for mouth piece while hurt, Douglas in rd 3 of next fight taking out mouth piece and quitting
Great fight, heart , determination, skill
MESSAGE TO THE YOUNG FIGHTER'S, REMEMBER YOUR TRAINER, AND CORNER MAN IS IMPORTANT.
Buster displayed the beauty of boxing the entire fight with his movement, use of the jab, his lion heart and by puting it all together. Just beautiful to watch his skills.
I can't believe he didn't get tired pushing out of the clinch so often in the later rounds. Tyson was just grabbing him and holding on for dear life, and allowing Douglas to push him off over and over.
I'm a big Tyson fan & he did lose.
Greatest fight by an underdog in boxing history
Mike must have partied all night couldn't throw combinations and bad defense happy for buster though 😊
Buster Douglas and his moment in time 🥊1990
@ 2:32
See that guy on the right by the ropes holding the flag? He's the reason Tyson fell.
Douglas was just superb that night.
Тайсон уже знал что проиграет этот бой, проиграл специально назло дон кингу, такие ходы в боксе тоже существуют... психолог Глубочайшего Бурения великий Воланд 👍
tyson is really a tough guy!!!
That night, Busta was the MAN.
You do not become HW champ at 20 Not being tough!
Man, it was DESTINY for Douglas to win this fight.
It was fixed lol
@@TheTubeMeister Either way, fixed or not, it was DESTINY. Everything is preordained. Nothing is RANDOM. We're mere PUPPETS.
@@TheTubeMeisterwhat
Seen this fight 20 times and Buster was counted out by the 10 count. He got up at 12 on my count every time since i saw it live in the ‘90s…Tyson got robbed! The ref dragged the hell out of the 7, 8, and 9 smh!!!
That wasn't a slow count i still think Tyson was the best ever
One of them
The most beautiful ass whooping of all time. I like how Douglas looked him directly in the eye after every round like, " What's up " ?
Tyson was partying with Bobby Brown until 5am. You can tell he's totally out of it.
@Dean Martinson 'Dont Be Cruel' man
Even if Tyson trained buster would have still beat Tyson’s ass
@@victorianicolau9431 I seriously doubt that
@@christophernunno4462 k it’s my opinion u have yours
@@victorianicolau9431 Very true but just remember that every great heavyweight got beat... except Rocky Marciano. 😊
Buster said "Mama said knock you out"😂
Incredible to see how Buster Douglas bent Time to his will and was able to get up in 13 seconds in under 10 seconds. A true testament to the indomitable will of a powerful Sorcerer.
😂 exactly 33:40
Give it a rest you guys, Buster knocked him about good and proper. It was Buster's night
@@Heneggsboss why should we give it a rest, Mike was cheated that night
Tyson had a 14 count so what is your point?
@@paulclark4616 place link here 👉🏼 please and thank you
thanks for this video upload !
mi gran admiración para Buster Douglas gran campeón un verdadero campeón su victoria tiene un sabor especial le ganó al mejor del mundo en su mejor momento
Но, Дуглас не смог защитить звание ни одного раза
I can clearly see tyson did not have his mind in this fight as he did in other fights earlier which caused him to lose in this fight.
To me this is the TIME THEY GAVE Mike the age pill he started going down 😢😢😢😢😢
Tyson looked so disengaged with all of it, especially when they would brake where there was no bounce in his step on the ready. If you loved Mike like we did back in the day when we witnessed this live then you would’ve felt just like me so sad and so much pain to watch him in this fight knowing that if Cuz was there.... well let’s just say we still love you Mike.
Easy with the bromance talk... and I see you thumbs'd up urself!
True he wasn't in good shape
He was the best in those days
He was the best in those days

Tyson whined about Holyfield using his head. This fight just like every other he uses his head and elbows as weapons, especially once he starts getting hit.
Yep. Tyson depends on that uppercut. Bout all he had or will ever have. Not a hatter,just it is,is what it is.
He used the clinch too.
Holyfield was notorious for headbutting tie ups.
Preparation wins bouts. Tyson was unprepared. Douglas was fighting for his dead Mom.
Tyson wasnt old to continue peekaboo. It is a very great boxing style.
The bell saved Buster but he was better that day
True
In my town in Africa I was the only Douglas supporter and after the fight I ran away. Couldn't risk celebrating.
Strange, Buster had all the attributes to be seriously a great fighter - Height, natural heavy, Acumen, jab, speed, footwork, right hand power, punch portfolio,balance - I mean on this night he was perfect. He just didn’t have the mentality to live like a professional athlete… something missing but in this night I would give him a shot against any heavyweight in history, he was beautiful
Ill bet kevin rooney was sitting home shaking his head yelling at the tv mike use the 5 and 7 move your head plus kevin had a gambling problem he probably put every thing he had on mike that night!!
Standing in front of the iron mike within few rounds is a history..
Iron Mike proved to me that .there isnt anybody knocked flat . Buster was the better fighter that day .
Here there are, the best heavy fight of all times:
1). Ali - Foreman , Zaire 1974
2). Marciano- Walcott, Phill 1952
3). Ali- Frazier, Manila 1975
4). Douglas- Tyson, Tokyo 1990.
5) Clay- Liston. Miami 1.964.
Pfft BS! You just name this one and a few main media named classics. Pic one of the Bowe/Holyfield trilogy or prob 2, 3. AlivsFrazier is way more of superior boxing, Foreman was just punching wide and sloppy and Ali let him tiring out. Also Lewis/Holyfield was hard and good fighting
Rocky VS Drago -1985 👍
Good list. This fight is one of my favs. I saw it live and always rooted against Tyson.
Depends on how you see the "best" I thought lyle vs foreman was a pretty entertaining one,Holmes vs Norton, Holmes vs Mercer as well.
@@olivermeier2949 that's right!. Even Quarry vs Norton was a Very good one!
Back in the day people had boxing fight parties , most of the Tyson ones were short parties , I remember the night of this fight nobody was going to the fight party , I said I dont know he 's about due to get beat .... well he went down that night , then went to jail.
Lost in all this is how horrible Jim Lampley's call is. The guy is so obviously in love with Tyson and fawning all over him while looking forward to Douglas failing. And the whole "loosey-goosey" comment is flat out embarrassing. Nevertheless, love that Tyson lost here yet am still amazed at how barbaric boxing is and what a disgrace it is that humans haven't outgrown such an obviously corrupt and immoral "sport".
It's clear Mike Tyson was probably sniffing coke and partying the whole week prior.. Mike Tyson was asleep the whole fight 😴
I distinctly remember after the nba allstar game in 1990, after commercial, the commentator (don't remember who) said something to the effect of , " If you thought this was amazing, wait'll you hear this. Mike Tyson has been knocked out."
It was the most unreal, just weird thing to hear. Mike Tyson was literally thought of as invincible.
It was also late at night, which added to the weirdness.
I won't take anything away from Buster Douglas, but you can tell Tyson did not have that killer look at all, all of the other fights he fought, he would basically win the fight before they started during the introductions....Tyson was not in shape, he came in like who cares! Just my two cents...and I did watch this fight in 1990 when i was in the Phillippines
Disengaged.
His muscles weren’t as pronounced as they were in other fights either. I agree with you completely.
I would take anything away from Tyson, but Douglas was just a better fighter.
Douglas, inteligente paciente y fuerte mentalmente.
Something made me pull this up and replay it. That stuff left jab was amazing
Even when Mike was in his so called prime. I guess the 80s before Rooney got fired, he had a problem with taller fighters with reach. He’d win but the fight wouldn’t be no first round knockout.
He was in His Prime until 1998.
At first you win a fight in your head and Tyson lost it way before the first punch was thrown.
He had a plan until Buster punched him hard and wasn't afraid.
Wow at last Tyson came down.Up up Douglas.For bringing Tyson down you are a hero.
Even this Tyson had way more headmovement, speed, and variety of attack compared to post-prison Mike.
Hah never realizer what a cool guy buster is. Not even jacked up just did his job and chillin. He was the better man that night.
His Mom died not too long before the fight and he said he was fighting for her.
Some of these comments been talk alot, why don't you step in the ring with Mike Tyson and Open your mouth
Never mess with a man who loved and lost his mother
Look how small tyson looks here compared to douglas.
Douglas has a lot of advantages still got knocked out first
Buster Jabs and uppercuts wanted all the smoke
At the time Douglas knocked Tyson out, this fight was scored a draw. No way were they going to let Tyson lose on a decision.
A draw would of been a travesty of justice. Douglas was clearly ahead by the 10th. Ive never considered that possibility.thanks.
There was no draw here, I think Mike won only 2 rounds b4 being kod
I lost $50 on this fight.I never bet on Tyson again.I was in shock,he didn't train much for Douglas.He underestimated the man and got knocked out,plain and simple.
Lmao nice lie, nobody would bet on Douglas..You were prob in your dads balls in 1990
at about 0530 on sunday morning february 11th 1990 there was a handwritten note in our ft knox chow hall( basic training) that mike tyson lost. we were not allowed to talk... but GD!!!
Shame Douglas didn't keep in shape when he fought Holyfield
He couldn't because Don King had him tied up with traveling state to state, flying from city to city all across the USA for months to talk with his lawyers. Buster was drained and finally only had about 5 or 6 weeks to suddenly train and get in shape for Holyfield. He was exhausted, mentally, physically, stressed out, jet lagged etc.etc. Don King is a POS con man and always was.
He would have still lost
@@bobber0623 you never know
@@bobber0623 anything can happen. Mike was losing this fight until he landed a massive shot. same goes to almost every heavyweight fights that the other guy was losing until he wasn't.
