    I see what your saying but that was a hard shot that drove his forearm into his face. He was done.

    Did you watch the ENTIRE fight ?

    It was a one-sided beat-down.

    Kudos to Berbick for going head to head with Tyson, but, and I exaggerate slightly here, I could have finished Berbick off, given the pounding Mike put on him prior to the stoppage.

    Did you see the punches Tyson was landing on him?, Tyson beat the living HELL out of him even before the stoppage for it to be a "dive", if he wanted to take a dive he would have done so in round 1.

    The punch Tyson landed on him at the end was on the temple not on his shoulders.

    Despite Trevor Berbick claiming to be a religious nut, he really was also part *******, too..... This guy raped his babysitter one night after a party... I guess he was horny.?.?

    As for Berbick claiming his '86 stoppage to Mike Tyson was unjust, well, that only PROVES that Berbick was hit way too hard in the head by Tyson.... Trevor Berbick may NOT have deserved to get whacked by his nephew, but the dude was not an Angel at all.........

    Berbick got hit with a left hook on the temple. It's clear. No dive involved.

    How long have you been following boxing??? Tyson hit him with a thunderous shot and his legs were gone. This happens sometimes. Usually guys get knocked unconscious, but Berbick probably had a better than average chin, so he was conscious, but he could not control his legs.

    THAT'S why the KO looks so funky!

    Berbick took a dive from a solid Tyson punch. That "Chicken with it's head cut off" dance was hysterical and a classic case of loss of equilibrium.
    Berbick lost the fight stepping into the ring he was petrified of Tyson.
    Legit KO by Iron Mike.

    Actually anyone who insulted me here is an idiot. I wasent trying to say he took a paid dive, but this punch did NOT hit him on the ****ing chin or head at all, if anything tyson's forearm grazed berbick's head after the punch MISSED. This is clear. Berbick was not falling down 3 times before the punch missed, but after he did. I say he was just tired of being there but didint want to fall for no reason.

    Don't answer my ****ing questions for me *****, or shut the **** up and don't ask em at all. I've taken punches to just about everywhere and been KO'd twice in my life. Temple shots don't typically hurt me as much as jawline shots or chin shots. With headgear or without, I been hit both ways.
