In my mind Tyson began his downward spiral just before the first bell.
After the bell rang he wasn't as good offensively nor was he any good defensively.

I have to admit i do enjoy this fight because i never did like Tyson. By the way i never see this fight live because i wasn't even 1 years old at the time of this fight.

I watched the fight live and Douglas put on a masterclass , but i still rate it as the biggest upset in history , and i think the odds proved that .
I mean you had a guy who had been KOED before , with suspect stamina , fighting and unbeaten KO puncher in his prime , it was just amazing the outcome , but thats boxing i guess![]()

Hadnt douglas`s mum died not a few days before??
Im also sure he wasnt the mandatory challenger and was merely sent over to asia to make up the numbers before tyson was to fight holyfield??
A true david and golliath giant killing that deserves to go down as one of the greatest upsets not only in boxing but in any sport!!

I was 6 years old but I always remember the name "Buster" I always laughed when people would say that. I know my older brother was heart broken to watch this fight he still believe's Tyson had Buster down for more than 10 seconds,then again he still thinks he could become heavyweight champ. SAD isn't it.

I remember that was when Sky took Tyson's fight from ITV and very few people had satellites. I got up next morning thinking to myself what if Tyson lost? When I heard it I was annoyed and shocked. Watching it later Tyson looked awful and Douglas looked inspired. The worst think was the judges had Tyson winning or even close. That was a joke but worse the WBC were thinking of not recognising the win which was just plain robbery!

Nine at the time, went to my uncles to watch it, everyone was shocked. My dad laughed about it. Tyson was my favorite so it sucked. Douglas was shining that night, it does happen. The KO was good though, and Tyson fumbling for that mouthpiece was great.![]()
