    more impresive upset?

    which do you guys find more impresive douglas win over mike tyso or foreman's win over moorer ?? ....i actually find foreman's victory more impresive he was 45 yrs. old and fought a very good fighter in michael......also tyson was not the same tyson going into that fight boxing was not in his heart cuus,jacobs,and rooney were all gone and his personal life was in shambles ...he was not prepared for that fight even in his corner they were trying to bring down the swelling to his eye with a plastic glove with ice water !!...

    Foreman landed one punch on the very suspect chin of a former lt. heavy, & pulled a miracle win out of what was definitely going to be a loss.

    Buster Douglas completely dismantled, schooled, & punished the guy who was thought to be on a clear path to heavyweight greatness....

    No matter what version of Tyson you had in against Douglas, that version was light years better than Michael Moorer.

    Douglas' victory was far more impressive.

            whithougt a doubt its buster vs tyson...absolutly NO ONE saw that coming, and unless im very much mistaken (which im not) the odds in that fight were 40-1, which is the highest in the history of hw boxing... no one expected buster to make it out of the first round

                Moorer wasn't really a heavy anyway and hadn't shown the skills and power he had at the lighter weight.....

                  I definitely go with Douglas over Tyson. When the fight happened, I didn't even bother turning on the news to find out the result. I found out the next morning and when I was told the results of the fight, I thought it was a joke at first. The impact of that fight was something hard to match. Buster Douglas was NOT supposed to beat Tyson. 40-1 odds or whatever they ended up being.

                    This may not be true, but on a show I saw they said that there wasnt even odds on the fight. Thats how bad the odds were against Buster. Everyone thought it was just gonna be another 1st round KO for Tyson untill he fought Holyfield.
