    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.

    What's wrong with dreaming? Unless he's like 50 years old and can't fight to save his life, I don't see why that's so ridiculous. At the very least it could keep him going, right?

    Wrong.

    He is shot, retired and will never fight again.

    I was a mere lad of 39. As much as I liked Tyson I always like when the underdog comes out victorious. Probably the biggest sports upset I've ever been a witness to.

    I know this is slightly off topic but i always thought Tony Tucker done a blueprint on how to beat a prime Tyson, he moved well, he clinched, and timed Tyson coming in. And he won 4 rounds now Tucker wasn't quite good enough to take advantage of all of that, plus he did break his right hand after 4th round as well. But i do think those tactics were spot on.
