I cant feel sorry for him, because he didnt take it serious so it was his own fault for losing
Just rewatched DOUGLAS-TYSON on ESPN CLASSIC

I call it the biggest upset in boxing HISTORY,not just the division,but boxing as a wholeMy spine shivers after every round. Especially when LAMPLEY, MERCHANT and LEONARD called it. AFter the first round, Merchant said "...and i actually GAVE that round to DOUGLAS!!!"
chilling. The whole fight was just unbelievable.
I was thinking of some other moments in boxing that give me chills. Corrales-Castillo ROUND 10, Hagler-Hearns ROUND 1, and Louis-Shmelling ROUND 12. Those moments in boxing were beyond amazing and broke every expectation or assumption any fan had ever made on those fights.
But those dont even compare to Douglas-Tyson
Man,Tyson could have won when he knocked Douglas down,it was a very long countComment

This was back in the VCR days....so I fully expected another 3 round KO fight fot Tyson. I set the VCR to record the fight while me and my friends headed off to Georgetown, Washington DC. It's got quite a night life there with all the bars and college people.
Anyway, around midnight, we were just walking along when we hear a loud roar from EVERY BAR on the street! People came running out screamin "TYSON JUST GOT KNOCKED OUT!"
Needless to say, we headed straight home to watch the VCR! Man....what a big surprise that was.Comment
