let's discuss tis.
you know when Busta Douglas dropped Mike Tyson in ta 10th? In my all honest opinion, if Tyson dint try to pick up his mouthpiece, he woulda made ta count of 7 or 8. Seriously. Te ref woulda been ta one that picked up ta mouthpiece fo him.
Opinions on tis?
If you really think that Tyson won that fight, you're just as delutionsal as that guy in your avatar. :confused: IMO Tyson was a great heavyweight champion and like other great champions, he lost fights.
Douglass did win the fight, thats just a fact. However Douglass was very hurt and was down for like a 9 and 1/2 count. Under most instances I think the ref would have stopped it. Look what happened in Ali vs. Foreman. Remember that count? BostonGuy, I like how your saying Tyson was a great heavyweight champion. Thats the truth, when he was champion he was a great one.

What's there to discuss? If Tyson hadn't picked up the mouth piece and made the count, he would have been stopped 5 seconds later by douglas and could've been seriously hurt.
mike tyson would have picked up a piece of shit and put in his mouth had one been ;aying there, he didnt know what planet he was on.
if you can tell me ten more vicious combinations than the one that douglas dropped tyson with youre a real boxing fan,.
Mike Tyson won that fight.
The only person who beat Tyson with who I have no excuses for the exception that he was - just too tall and fought like a bitch and was talking bad about Tyson before the fight...about his family and shit that lead to Tyson fighting angry and not disciplined which lead to Tyson losing focus, which then lead to him being easy pickings which wouldn't have happened if the guy he was going to fight wasn't talking all that shit and wouldn't have happened if he wasn't having legal and financial problems a little before that and which had a big effect on him before the fight because he spoke with his lawyer about some problems before the fight - was Lennox Lewis.
That's the only one I can give a little respect to.
Holyfield - buck
Holyfield II - buck
Douglas - buck
Danny Williams - injury
Kevin McBride - hypnosis/buck/didn't want to fight no more.
Mike Tyson is still cool in my eyes. As a matter of fact it's my strong belif that it was prime Tyson fighting Ali in the Thrilla or even Ali at his best...Ali would have been knocked unconcious in 43 or 44 seconds.
I am not trying to piss anyone off but lets be real. Douglass did win the fight, however when he was knocked down by Tyson in most instances that would have been a knockout. It was as if the ref wanted Douglass to win. Your right Manny, he should have forgot about the mouth piece.
I agree entirely man. I agree!!!!!!!!
If the ref had counted faster, Douglas would have gotten up faster. He wasn't even that hurt. Stop kidding yourselves.
Tyson on the other hand....was an obliterated fighter in there.
You boys need to let go of this comic-book, superhero view you have of Tyson.
He lost his fights....because of his physical & mental FLAWS, that's all.

The reason he tried to pick up his mouthpiece was because he was in lala land and KTFO.
However Buster did get a long count. Doesn't matter now.
Well the real issue is that the ref should've counted Douglas out when Douglas was down for 14 seconds. Yeah, Tyson was losing big time, but he managed that last ditch knockout and was robbed of it b/c the ref decided to add a few numbers between one and ten that aren't there.
Douglas was watching the ref, and was ready to get up whenever the ref called '9', be it after 9 seconds or 14.
yea no shyt.......
BUT we're hurrr in discussing and argument purposes. If you gonna tell me things I already know like "Buster won" then tis discussion aint goin nowhere.
tis is a legit thread. If Tyson dint try to pick up his mouthpiece, he woulda gotten up fine. Wit his power that can last 12 rounds, it's possible that he woulda KOed Douglas any time aftawards (had he got up), if he managed to drop Douglas brutally in round 8.
You clown. Tyson was so far in orbit he thought he was picking up a spliff that his dealer dropped.
Had Tyson gotten up from that knockdown, and had the referee through some fluke neglected to look into Tyson's glazed over eyes and let the fight continue, Mike would have revisted the canvas sometime within the next twenty seconds, possibly for good.

Nyahahahaha. I know it's a good thread, but you've been reading ma posts fo an hour now homie.
In all seriousness Manny_P if you don't know your history DON'T post about it.
It's easy as it is figuring out the little kids from the boxing historians here, we don't want another 5'1'' small fry polluting this forum.
Your right Manny P this is a legit thread...for 12 year olds.
I remember saying the same thing to my dad (Im dead serious)...I said, "Dad if Tyson hadnt reached for his moutpiece he would have beaten the count."
My dad would then look at me and laugh...he would then say "you'll understand how foolish your words are when your a bit older"
That was some good stuff by my pop and Manny although Im not your dad the same exact advice applies...
Classic post.
no one has talked bout tis since I registerd hurrr. Not in ma knowledge. AND from ta look of things you registered 3 weeks ago, so don't be mad at me.
PWNED PWNED PWNED!!!!!
