Tyson Douglas Post Fight Analysis

Good post, Tyson really made some ******ed decisions regarding his team.

 

Tyson still kept Bright around even when Brooks was training him. Brooks would stand on one side the ring and Bright on the other and both would give Tyson completely different instructions. Of course Brooks was giving Tyson the correct commands. Bright was a ****ing clown I guess he went back to being a pastry chef.

 

As you say, the bell rang as soon as he was up, and would have even with a correct count, so why should a couple of extra seconds have mattered?

 

It probably wouldn't have mattered, i'm just saying Douglas took 13 seconds to rise, then Tyson almost reached him before the bell rang. To get up in 9 seconds on a normal count, Buster would've had to get up 4 seconds sooner, & maybe, just maybe Tyson would've landed a bomb to topple his unsteady foe.

 

I think Douglas picked up the count, but that doesnt change the fact it took him a long time to rise, and he waited to the last second to rise, so its conceiveable with a correct count, he doesnt make it. Douglas would have been satisfied with his performance, it was his nature to do things like that, but he did get up and continue and finished like a champion. If I was the ref I would have done the same thing and given him the benefit of the doubt to get back up, because he was killing Tyson.

 

Even though he beat the count Douglas wasn't too sure of himself when he got up at 9 1/2. Meyran was a crack pot referee...smoking a combo of crack and pot the way he handled the count. :smoke

 

I do not get where this 10 seconds thing comes from. The fighter has to rise inside the 10 count. The referee is not a timekeeper...

 

The ref is supposed to pick up the count from the ringside ref who only counts knockdown seconds. Meyran did not pick up the count correctly. When the ringside ref was at 4 Meyran started his count, so Douglas got a few extra seconds. That being said, its not Douglas' responsibility to watch the ringside ref, only to watch the ref in the ring and rise before he finishes his count. Douglas did do that.

 

Yes but Tyson wasnt allowed to continue and Douglas was. I cant even believe Tyson got up from that succession of punches. The last punch was brutal.

 

bright and snowell were useless tyson knew that better than anyone but they were cheap and did what they were told which is the reason why they were hired in the ist place .

 

Indeed, that combination of flush bombs was insanely brutal, the starting right uppercut & finishing lefthand in particular were loaded-up straight from the depths of hell. This animated gif shows it clearer than any video can:

The referee is entitled to make what ever call he wants...

A 10 count should not begin until the fighting standing is in the furthest neutral corner. That should, after making the judgement call that the fallen fighter is entitled to the 10 count, be the next job of the referee. This may take quite a bit of time. Only then should a ten count begin.

 

No thats not true. The ref still has to pickup the ringside count even after hes ushered the other fighter to the neutral corner.

 

The bell would have sounded directly anyway. The round was already over, the timekeeper didn't ring it since you couldn't be saved by the bell.

 

Great find thanks for sharing :good
