tyson took holyfield seriously he didnt take douglas seriously but douglas was excellent that night anyway even tyson in his peak condition would of struggled against that douglas even in tysons peak condition he struggled against tony tucker and james tillis and why should of both fighters been fined ??

and im not hating tyson i think he is good fighter but overrated
