    Buster Douglas performance against tyson is the most overrated performance in history

    Why do people think that the night buster douglas beat tyson that he could of beat anyone in history or givin any great heavyweight such as louis or ali etc . The fact is the tyson who was beat by douglas would of being beaten just as easily by tubbs, thomas, biggs , holmes , spinks, smith, tucker etc . tyson was a sitting duck that fight he showed no headmovement and just threw one punch at a time , he was a walking punchbag . its not hard to beat a guy who just stands in front of you to be hit which what tyson did throughout the whole fight .

    well if you think that performance was overrated then I guess you're saying tyson was overrated. which is a common opinion.

        that wasnt the mike tyson we usually saw, but anyway he should won that fight anyway that KD he scored shoulda been a 10 count, the ref screwed tyson who wasnt on his game,

          Tyson lost coz he didn't know what to do when he couldn't bully people. Not having Kevin Rooney in his corner for the 1st time didn't help. A perfect strategy to beat Tyson, which has got to be admired!

            Tyson got lucky against Bruno and Williams.

            After the Spinks fight, he LITERALLY STOPPED TRAINING and did not care for boxing.

            He was getting beaten up by sparring partners in Tokyo - fact.

                  Tyson was **** that night, Douglas fought very well. Thats pretty much it.
                  All the whys and ifs and buts are just conversation topics. Nothing more.
