James "Buster" Douglas (born April 7, 1960) is a former undisputed world heavyweight boxing champion who scored a stunning upset when he knocked out previously undefeated champion Mike Tyson on February 11, 1990 in Tokyo, Japan. At the time, Tyson was considered to be the best boxer in the world and one of the most feared heavyweight champions in history due to his utter domination of the division. The Mirage Casino in Las Vegas, the only Las Vegas casino to make odds on the fight (all others declining to do so as they considered the fight such a foregone conclusion), had Douglas as a 42 to 1 underdog for the fight, making his victory, in commentator Reg Gutteridge's words, "the biggest upset in boxing history, bar none."

Man, I remember I had just turned 9 and I was in 4th grade. It was not good for me, people gave me a hard time through school because of good old "Iron Mike". I'll just say that our names are pretty damn close to the same........literally, not even kidding.

So, yeah, you can imagine the flack I caught after that and the **** case......thanks Mike, I appreciate it mang.

i was about 6 months old chilling in a crib. I was born in late 89 so i will never understand what Tyson was perceived as in his prime I started following him during his decline. I grew up more on Chavez Sr. and De la hoya as a young kid.

off topic but great slow mo....

Biggest upset in boxing history, I don't thinl it can ever get topped. Damn how time flies and how boxers come and go in this beautiful sport.

I was barely 1 year old. In hindsight, it's funny looking back at the mid 90s when I became a casual boxing fan because of Tyson. I thought that was Tyson's prime because he was lunatic crazy, but his prime had really happened before I was even born. Too bad heavyweight boxing died in the late 90s. Nothing better than two giants slugging it out.
