I thought the fight was gonna be over and that I was trippin in the 8th when Mike KD Buster(I still to this day believe the ref gave a long count, Buster aint beat that count shoulda been a KO for Mike ). I'll never forget we were yellin at the TV(Like he coulda heard us)for Mike to forget about the mouthpeice and just get up. Mike(to me atleast)was the last world's baddest man.

Schmeling - Louis I is probably the biggest upset considering all the events at the time.
A huge upset which isn't mentioned much is Honeyghan - Curry as well, maybe not on the Tyson Douglas level but thought It'd be worth a mention .

Buster Douglas will forever be known as the guy who showed to the world that no one man is invincible. You can never take that away from him as for one night he showed the biggest heart in boxing doing what no man had done before him & that is knocking "tHe SO CALLED BADDEST MAN ON THE PLANET" spark the **** out.

Douglas didn't just get lucky either. He handed out one of the worst beat downs I've seen and wore down Tyson. The fight said more about Tyson than Douglas. I never believed a guy at 5'10" was not going to come a cropper at some point.
