    You're right again. It's in the books. Please be honest though, was that not an A+ performance by Douglas that night? The man got up off the canvas to kick Tyson's ass.

    You can NOT honestly say he'd ever looked that good before or especially after that fight.

    Who knows, styles make fights.

    I seriously wouldn't be surprised if against Chagaev, Tyson quit on his stool, looking like a clubbed seal.

    What made him look so good was the fact that he did that to somebody that was never supposed to lose. Sure, he had a good game plan, but he was still Buster Douglas in that fight.

    But if Chagaev doesn't stay down, Tyson's heart or lack thereof might come into play.

    Hey, if Douglas dropped a deuce on Tyson's upper lip, anything's possible.

    Pah! He needed 7 rounds to take out a no-hoper like Brian Nielsen when he was in his prime. Chagaev in 3 rounds.Ludicrious!
    Chagaev is no McNeeley or Seldon or another of those American clubfighters Tyson fought for the most part of his career in the paid ranks.Easy to look good against soft opposition.
    Chagaev is for real.He twice beat the great Savon to whom Tyson couldnt hold a candle .

    Prime Tyson would've missed Chagaev with the first big hook he threw, but the force generated would've blown a hole in the side of Ruslan's skull. Onlookers believe that Chagaev was assassinated by a hidden gunman until the fight video, slowed down to 1/32, reveals that it was indeed a Prime Tyson punch that caused the fatal wound.
