I was thinking what fight made you a fan. I always got to see boxing along with my father, the only problem was I wanted too see the fights LIVE on television and most of them was like 3-4 AM so I often feel asleep .
Since Mogens Palle was the only promotor in denmark the bums he got over didn´t exite me so I looked to US where the boxingscene was great.
Anyway I thought MikeTyson was a beast in his prime, didn´t like the guy that much but love the fights anyway, and the drama that goes with great KO´s.
For me the night in 1990 thats nearly 19 years ago where I was 14 years old and Mike Tyson and Buster Douglas fought one to remember. For this fight I was at an age where I was able to keep awake for the fight, eventhough it that was on early in the morning. And I taped it for my friends.
The fight had it all, the knock down where you could argue Douglas didn´t beat the count, and the great KO in the 10th round, where the underdog took Tyson to school. I watched the KO over and over again, to be sure it was really night for the prime beef Tyson nah .
Still wonder what really happened to Tyson since he clearly underestimated Douglas that night.
Which fight is your favorite and why ?
