    Doulgas win, DQ 3. People will start going mad with Tyson starts bitting Douglas, even going so far as to rip part of his ear off.

    Quite possible, it is the reason Tyson fell below being a great, mentally he could not handle anything other than dominating his opponent.

    Roles reversed: Tyson, KO10. Much earlier if Douglas pies out like he did before facing Evander.

    Douglas lost his motivation and was happy with the big payday he was getting.

    Tyson lays fat Douglas out early.

    Douglas was a disgrace against Holyfield. Not only because he did his training at Krispy Kreme but when he got dropped he just sat there and decided to take the money and run :-(

    Tyson knocks Douglas out. Look at Tyson in his fights after the his loss to Douglas(before the jail time and right after). Tyson was more focused and actually came well prepared for those fights. While not the same again we still saw some glimpses of the old Tyson. In his fight with Douglas Tyson completely abandoned head movement and didn't even seem to want to be there. Now look at him against say...Razor Ruddock...as I said Tyson was no longer the same as in the 80s and so he got hit more often but he still came back and re-adapted his head movement and speed and showed the will he didn't have in the Douglas fight.

    Add all this plus the fact that Tyson would want revenge so badly he would want to murder Douglas almost literally. Tyson would no doubt win within 2-3 rounds. Plus Douglas was never again in the shape he was for the Tyson fight, or motivated for that matter.

    91-96 Tyson was not the 80s Tyson but he regained some motivation and came well prepared for his fights and showed an arsenal that despite being depleted, was re-defined and re-sharpened.

    Mike would probably win but still Mike never was the same fighter after Douglas. He didn't use the great peek a boo head movement like he did from 1985-1989. But he would have come in ready and in shape and probably stopped Douglas in 2 rounds. I think it would have been better had Mike had a few tuneups and then fight Douglas in mid 1991 around the time he fought Ruddock.

    Tyson would have been my favorite 2 win a rematch even if not n overwhelming 1 . Younger and it matters more as d time goes by , actually KOd Douglas in their 1st fight only 2b a victim of a long count , and d 1st 2 score a KD anyway , did better than Douglas vs Savarese , Holyfield*2 , Ferguson , Tucker , usually in a better shape .

    Tyson would win although if Douglas turned up to fight how he did he would, Douglas had lost it by then.

    Depends on Douglas, imo.

    If he trains hard and comes out to prove the point he might well beat Tyson again. Even if Tyson's in his best shape, Douglas might have his number here. And psychologically, if a better-prepared Tyson was made to it was going to be another long night, he might well lose his mental momentum very early on.

    If Douglas is anything less than what he was in Tokyo, he'd lose. If was like he was against Holyfield, he'd lose within 4 rounds.

    1991 Tinkerbell Tyson VS Fat Bummy Douglas = Tyson KO1

    Bummy has a **** chin, so if he comes in fat, Tinkerbell smokes his fat ass.:iak

    --------------------------------------------------------------------

    1991 Tinkerbell Tyson VS Fit Bummy Douglas = Bummy KO12

    Bummy in legendary Tokyo shape still KO's Tinkerbell, But it takes 2 Rounds longer to beat him down cos Midget Lisp would have more stamina to take a ass-whupping when he was proper shredded like he was VS Razza Ruddock.:smoke



    Foreman Hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooook!:rasta

    Tyson beats Douglas.

    Douglas more than likely would turn up in the same shape he did against evander confident, knowing hes beaten tyson before etc etc

    Tyson turns up in the shape he did for the ruddock fights, knowing hes got a tough fight on his hands.

    Tyson hands Douglas his ass
