The FOTC was held on Monday March 8, 1971.

I was there in the mezzanine $20

Of course, my goof. I was at a park listening to round by round reports on a portable radio.

I love this photo, I wish I could find a high-resolution, color photo of it. As a huge Tyson fan, I consider it one of his finest moments, coming in out of shape and getting beat up all night, to come back with that vicious uppercut that floored Douglas...long count or not. A great image. All I could find was the cover of the book "The Last Great Fight."
