On this day 12 years ago in the grand garden arena me and 17,000 of my closest friends witnessed the real deal take iron mike apart over 11 rounds...,great day for boxing!!!! :happy
I saw it in a packed bar in upstate NY. Still remember how shocked I and many Tyson fans were. What a stunner. Love both guys.
What a great victory added to a already impressive resume. Do anybody know what the odds were before the fight?
Not of the top off my head, but Evander was a heavy underdog. Something like 9-1 (or was it 6-1) for Mike to win.
It was 7 or 8 I think. I was at a party off-campus at Rutgers watching that fight, tripping my face off. I was telling everyone how there was no way Holyfield would win! :rofl:rofl:rofl
My greatest night as a boxing fan! Evander exuded confidence from the time he was in his dressing room, right through the staredown, where he actually made Tyson turn his head and blink!:yep What a night to be an Evander Holyfield fan that night!!!!:happy Who remembers the theme of the night in Evander Holyfield's corner that night thoughout the fight?
it was actually 25-1 jumped on that as soon as i got there..,rumor was trump had a cool million bet on holy at 20-1..,hell hope he did! DAN...,finally
