    I watched Tyson-Douglas and noticed that when Tyson knocked Douglas down in the 8th, Douglas was on the canvas long enough to be counted out, but still got up to beat the count.

    What do you think? Was it a slow count?

    I wasn't born when Tyson-Douglas happened.

    The rule isn't 10 seconds; its the count of ten.
