Why didn't Tyson use any head movement in the Buster Douglas fight?

    Don't be dumb. We ALL know the real Tyson went missing after June 28, 1988.

    That wasn't Mike Tyson. That was his cloned doppelganger. The real Tyson is somewhere in Don King's estate in Ohio. Don't be dumb.

    Has he still got his fake Pisser with him so he can pass those drug tests??

    Didn't you know that he went straight in the ring in Tokyo after a 48 hour crack cocaine binge and would have wiped Douglas out in 2 seconds if he'd have been sober.

    Cool, I was actually with Mike when we snorted coke aye off the Japanese geisha ring girl's tats a mere hour before his ringwalk. We heard Douglas was taking illegal injections for his asthma "Pryor" to the bout.

    Jesus H!! Is there any limit to which these Tyson freak apologists won't stoop? So some goon smacks a 59 year old Angelo Dundee, and according to the Tyson scum that means Dundee knows fvck all about boxing. Meanwhile Old Tomato is more interested in the Catholic church, as a young man ( and we ALL know their relationship with young boys and girls ) has a few amatuer fights, then gets his eye fvcked in a street fight, thus disqualifying him for a pro licence.

    He then goes on to train Torres, Patterson, and Tyson. Dundee trains Ali, and Leonard. You decide who had the better resume as a trainer.

    Tyson doesn't just suffer a blip against Douglas in the prime of his life, and career at 23 years of age. He gets systematically torn apart from the first bell, and KTFO in the 10th, and STILL the pond life fanboys make feeble excuses.

    You couldn't make it up. I swear these scum are wierder than *******s, and they ARE fvcking wierd.

    Douglas didn't beat Iron Mike Tyson, he beat Mighty Mike Tyson. HUGE difference. "Iron" Mike used the Willie - "Mighty" Mike used the Wee Wee. "Iron" Mike gave Unforgiven an autograph - "Mighty" Mike knocked out Unforgiven's daddy. I could go on and on...

    It is not dismissive of Douglas to say that Tyson was significantly off in training, motivation, movement & spirit for thte Douglas fight-& still almost won. Prime he at worst toughs out a clear decision. And it is an amateurs mistake to say he was not overweight thus in shape. No, he lost a great deal of weight quickly, which saps, electrolytes, energy, explosiveness, likely endurance, most always muscle.

    Just not being fat does not mean anything.

    What most people forget is Douglas was no slouch. Ok he was, but a slouch with a lot of talent and for one night he pulled it together.

    Douglas was on a good run before facing Tyson.

    But because Tyson was so huge at the time and with the Holyfield superfight looming i think Douglas was underestimated by everyone
