    Journeyman92, I have a question. Did at anytime did those Tokyo streetwalkers ever put a gun to Mike Tyson's head to make him commit sexual acts with them? A mature man realizing he has a title defense coming up would not engage in acts with a street walker. What is more important?, a reproductive organ or a title defense? I would say a title defense, fighters have always been taught to abstain from intimacy before a fight, poor self control is the main cause, it's not the referee's fault but the hard up fighter's fault, plain and simple. If Tyson was prepared, he would not have to worry about the referee's count used against him. They should have asked for a recount like in an election, Stop The Steal. Mike is not related to someone we know. Lol.

    If you go back and watch the fight the time keeper is wearing white gloves in the backround and he made it to ten 3 seconds before the ref did

    Maybe they should be as everyone since Feb 11 1990 has, Tyson lost, plain and simple. Like I posted, had he taken the fight seriously, he would not be crying about the count being used against him. He was KAYOED. How come some Tyson fans are in denial? That is why I posted Stop The Steal, Denial with a big D.

    Knockout only because Tyson was cheated first. Not a fair fight.

    So I am calling it the way I saw it too. Muhammad Ali will always be my favorite. When Ali lost to Ken Norton on March 31 1973, a friend of mind called me at home, telling me that my fighter had his jaw busted and lost. My reply was Ken Norton won it fair and square, he was the better fighter today. There was dead silence, he said he had to go. I do not believe in excuses or try to rationalize defeat. If you lose, you lose, no if's ands or but's about it. I knew that if Tyson were to face a fighter that boxed him, did not have fear of him, he would lose. So he lost, history cannot be changed, so he likes to fight sharks and flight passengers, whatever floats his boat. Lol.

    It must be like the WWE or AEW, the referee had his back turned, someone hit Mike Tyson with a chair or a Japanese made sandal from one of the Street Walkers. Excuses, Excuses. Lol

    Did you bother to go back and time all the Tyson KO wins to see how many of those were tainted? I bet you’d find some.

    Sure theres a few questionable referee stopages.
    But the taint goes to Douglas for that specific fight.

    Nah, his job is to beat the referee’s 10 count. Not to beat 10 seconds on a stopwatch.

    Won fair and square.

    Stop watch? The Timekeeper with the white gloves on the side of the rings ten count doesn't match up with the referees ten count by 3 seconds. This is a fact
