douglas looked so much better against tyson than he looked here- its easy 2 see now why he was such a huge underdog against tyson... the douglas who faught tyson wouldve given anyone trouble, on that night douglas was a top class heavyweight, shame he couldnt sustain it

@ViceVurze1 I realize that this will also fall under the heading of 'genius level thinking,' but the official record shows that Tyson lost via TKO. So what if Tyson didn't train...history will not relay that in the form of win/loss. No asterisk for that. When you are a champion, and you don't train...most often you get KTFO by someone who is out to prove a point. The 'long count'? how about Tyson getting hit so hard he puts his mouthpiece in SIDEWAYS. I think that was done fighter.

@fergie974 - wow..u must don't watch boxing

@asleep909 - Obviously i wasn't in the ring, genius.. but any idiot with eyes and ears can see what happened, many people not just myself feel that Tyson won that fight.- As a warrior, he has to accept the lost which is why "Tyson said so".. - Douglas fought well no doubt but didn't fight a focussed Tyson...hell he barely trained for the damn fight- bottom line the fight could have and should went the other way but the ref was bogus on the count...PERIOD!

@vicevurze When you watch that fight again...and you will...watch Buster's JAB. He put it on Tyson every single time Tyson tried to come inside on him. Douglas created the blueprint for taller heavyweights to follow. Don King couldn't make that 'long count' controversy turn into anything significant-and neither can you. Douglas won that fight. Tyson has said so. Tyson was in the ring with him-you were not!

I had never seen a boxer more focused than Douglas was against Tyson. He was the man with the plan. No distractions, no detours. I honestly believe he didn't realize who he was in there against!

@blackoil911 Oliver was on drugs n it made him emotional. He was crying because he said ppl never gave him the credit he deserved and acted like it was a foregone conclusion that he would lose.
-
I've read a few books on Douglas and the guy was loaded with talent - but was incredibly unfocused and lazy.
But when he put everything together, the dude was a heck of a fighter.
I honestly believe that if he had Holyfield's heart, he could have gone down as one of the greatest of all time.
Tall, great jab, great speed, smart,... He could have been a HOFer.

no man ,i can tell its just obvious,
he was taking way too many punches this time around .... Lewis was way to careful and Oliver knew it
in a way oliver was crying becuz he just couldnt get lewis and was getting fucked over
lewis basically ended olivers career in a bad way
-
@blackoil911 You think maybe the drugs had something to do with it? McCall takes massive flush right hands from Lewis and just stands there. That he stands is amazing, McCall might have the greatest chin of all time. Lewis had a huge right hand - ask Tyson, Rahman and Ruddock just to name a few.

What the point of posting the four rounds of this fight? Absolutely nothing of consequence happened here...NOTHING
Great fight, thanks for putting it up! :)
