Who cares if both counts are identical?  They're identically bad counts- If the ref counts right, the second one never happens cause Tyson would have won by KO in the 8th. THATS how the fight should have ended.

@mikebiff232 Umm, no. If the ref counts faster for Douglas, he gets up faster and beats the count. Douglas could have gotten up at 2 if he wanted to. He just stayed down longer to give himself a breather. Wouldn't have made a difference, because Tyson was still getting his ass kicked.

@hat301

@kingkevinjoy

Altered how? Go look at the original video, and you'll see that nothing was altered.

@hat301 Fucking moron. Tyson knocked him out and nothing after that matters.

@ronesposito1

I guess you didn't see the video then. Try watching it before you open your mouth and embarrass yourself again.

There were both horrible counts.

Maybe Buster Douglas would've beaten the count anyway. He should have been given the opportunity to do so.

As for Tyson, the referee should've stopped the fight even if Tyson was up at 8. He was in no condition to continue.

[FamousMovieScenes09]

Did Tyson ever thank the referee for saving his life at the end there?

[BiggieSmalls11111]

I am a TYSON FAN, and never believed that whole "Slow count" fiasco, we know what Mike Tyson could do he ain't Iron Mike for no reason. You don't have to act like "The Baddest Man On The Planet" didnt get his ass handed to him every once in awhile, just like you Tyson haters cant dwell on the VERY FEW TIMES Tyson was actually dominated in a boxing ring, i mean you can talk who he did and didnt beat, but at the end of the day, you dont beat most of you opponents by knockout because your a Bum.

@mikebiff232 I also hates referees that counts slow, but this is not the first time it happens. It's not Douglas faults, do you think so or what?

[iceill3425]
