    But in march 1988 ?
    Douglas takes the place of an injured Tony Tubbs.

    Same result or no where near it guys?

    This is the Douglas of 1988 to, not the 1990 version.

    Personally I think Tyson runs over Douglas early.
    This wasn't the same Buster that was emotionally charged , I think it makes a difference here.
    I'm going Tyson stops him before the sixth round.

    If Tyson was 100%, he'd beat any version of Douglas.

    A Tyson cope thread. Buster looked pretty damn good on the undercard if Tyson-Spinks, whipping Mike Williams emphatically before knocking him out. Tyson gets too much credit for the Spinks fight imo. Spinks brought nothing that night.

    Douglas has all the tools to beat Tyson at any time. Explain how he overcomes that brilliant jab and 13” in reach Buster had over him because Tyson looked clueless dealing with it when they actually fought less than two years later?

    Douglas tried his magic uppercut on holyfield that he did on Tyson. Threw it from the nose bleed section. Got plastered. Douglas beat a Tyson that was uninspired and had no direction. His team were **** and so was his fight. If he had Rooney around he wins by K.O easily.

    Biggest upset in boxing history.

    It was shortly before Buster hit his peak, winning against Mike Williams, Trevor Berbick and Oliver McCall back-to-back-to-back. Looking at his past stamina issues, he may have an early success against Tyson, but he would probably gass out even quicker than he did against Tucker. I got Mike by KO8.

    Even in a fantasy cope thread Mike fanboys can't help to bring out stupid excuses, lol.

    Peak Tyson beats any version of Buster--even the February 11 1990 version.

    Probably just like he did with Biggs and Williams.
    Ferguson succeeded :)
    A completely unmotivated and unprepared Tyson knocked Douglas down in 14 seconds. A focused Tyson would have done it sooner, better, and again if he had to. Easy.
