If only we had the internet back then to bicker about it non-stop.....it would of been bigger than the PED talk :lol1:
I just gotta wonder how different his career would've been had he not "lost" to Douglas. Maybe he wouldn't have gone to prison either.
Neither was a fluke, there are no flukes in boxing. Just mistakes that were exploited/capitalized on.
Khan just wasn't ready to face a big, strong, and tall lightweight that had good power, decent hand-speed, and counter-punching ability like Prescott. Kid was getting buzzed, hurt, and dropped by feather-fisted, blown up, Featherweights and Jr. Lightweights.
Tyson just wasn't ready for a motivated, determined, once in a lifetime performance Buster Douglas. Buster just outboxed him and outfought him. He showed phenomenal stamina (with his output and foot movement), followed a great gameplan (shooting that fast hard jab constantly and catching Tyson with hard counter power punches whenever Mike got brave), and skills.
True! But i think people were more shocked with buster-Tyson

Khan-Prescott
is not even close...It was just 1 round and Khan got caught cold...
Tyson-Douglas was just a great gameplan by guy who was not going to be denied that night. He was running high on a emotion due to his mother passing going into the fight. He got up after being drop. And, went to business in the next rounds. Wasn't really phase by it.
