Why did Tyson never have a re- match against Buster Douglas?

he comes from a long line of successful Busters.

Fought Holyfield, went inactive, and then went into a diabetic coma and it went downhill from there.

Did he not roid like the rest of them then? he did but his pie to roid ratio was 10-1 so the effects were nullified

because buster douglas loves pie! he would fit in brilliantly in this era of blob heavyweights but in the late 80's early 90's he was toast. Did he not roid like the rest of them then?

Yeah they should've rematched, Tyson wouldve killed him

Buster Douglas was before his time. :nonono: he was a true innovator. also shout out to tony tubbs.

Why? 2 reason #1. I think Holyfield was the mando #2. Because he got 75% of a $32 mil purse bid ($24 mil). He did not want any involvement with Don King after he tried to have the ref's count reveersed and Douglas declared KO'D after the fight. Tyson KD Douglas and he wasn't badly hurt,he followe the count and rose at 8 after banging his glove on the canvas in disgust. Don King is the most shameful thing that ever happened in boxing. I for one am so glad that he controlls no real top fighters and is out of the HW picture.:boxing::boxing::boxing:

i believe they offered Douglass quite a bit of money right after the upset but Douglass turned it down to fight Holyfield instead (who he lost to.) After Tyson got out of jail Douglass was done. He balooned up to something like 350-400 pounds and no way would he have been a viable opponent for anyone. The money he was offered for a rematch was no where near what he got paid against Holyfield

He was a 1 hit wonder. He didnt even train for Holyfield, he came in like 15 pounds heavy then against Tyson. He came to collect a massive check because he had no chance against Evander Right. So I assume you're agreeing (or illustrating) with what I was saying.

It should be mentioned also that poor Buster's life basically began to unravel. He unfortunately became the model not being able to handle one's success, like Leon Spinks before him. I'm not saying Buster got into cocaine, etc., but everything that went into that magical night in Tokyo had dissipated. I liked him, and he (and Riddick Bowe) should've remained atop the division as formidable 'big men' for many years, but alas ... He was a 1 hit wonder.

Additionally, Holyfield was the mandatory with all three sanctioning bodies at the time.

It would have happened, but Don King tried aggressively to have the fight ruled (i think) a No-Contest because Douglas got a long count when Tyson dropped him. They went over it on the ESPN Mike Tyson dvd.

Douglas' attitude was "**** Don King" so he fought Holyfield instead. Look at the scorecards to the fight and King's BS after the fight and you'll understand why he felt that way.
