​@@biggiewhite same exact count. The ref is not bound by the time keeper's count and is the authority in the ring. Refs usually give fighters the benefit of the doubt when they are dominating the opponent. Up until the round 8 knock down, Buster was fighting the perfect fight. There are a lot of factors that come in to play when it comes to the 10 count. Buster was alert and showed he was listening to the refs count. Even if he wasn't, he at the very least put on a good act, which goes a long way. It also happened at the end of this round. Something that can't' be ignored. As for Tyson, took bombs from Buster the entire fight. Looked hurt a couple of times. By the 10th round, it's clear Tyson is ready to go. He takes a flush 4 hit combo. He hits the canvas and instead of getting up and at least trying to pretend he wasn't hurt, he clumsily flips onto his knees to look for his mouthpiece and barely puts the damn thing in his mouth. At the count of 8, dazed and confused, he attempts to get up and falls back down and is clearly shook up. The ref is looking him straight in the eye. Tyson is absolutely gone. Tyson tries again and tries to grab and use the ref to help him get up. The red feels it. This is at 9. As the ref waves his warms and stops the fight, there is zero protest from Mike. Buster would have hurt Tyson real bad if that fight went on. Honestly, think about it. Imagine if the ref called this fight in round 8. Buster would have looked straight into the eyes of the ref like he was crazy. It would be another instance where refs make the wrong call, and this fight would have been remembered as one of the biggest robberies of all time. It would have been analyzed over and over again. Furthermore, it would be an asterisk in Tyson's career and in my opinion would look worse than him straight up losing against Douglas.

@@biggiewhite Also, and this might seem like a silly point, but I think it's worth hearing; Buster Douglas' story here is insanely inspirational. The fact that he was an extreme underdog. The fact that his mother died shortly before this fight. The fact that he told his mother, supposedly in her deathbed, that he was going to beat Tyson for her. He didn't show up that night just to fight. He showed up to win. Not only that, but he used this as motivation to win and fought the fight of his life.

Tatarawr it’s timed perfectly with the video. When the ref is on 1 the video is on 4:00-4:01, when he is on 2 the video is on 4:02, when he is on 3 the video is on 4:03, when the ref gets to 8 the video is on 4:10. At some point at the 4 count the referee slowed down the count and has lost 2 seconds from then on. I do understand that it’s the referee’s final count and the count has leeway and other things like distraction come into play. I’m just pointing out the obvious that when the referee stops counting at 9 that 12 actual seconds passed and Tyson should’ve won if the seconds were counted correctly.

I have been binge-watching some Tyson fights and wanted too see a few he lost (the very few). While the fighting is amazing (Mike was still great and just happened to be bested that day), what stands out to me the most about boxing is that there actually is humanity involved. How the ref held Mike when he just missed the 10 count was like, "it's over. great job and you did your best but it's over". The fighters seem to respect each other and this is a competition not a brawl. I think of the training these professionals endure and all the hard work and discipline needed to be the best. I also think of how they must process life's hardships while all of this is going on in the foreground. I can only imagine that you could lose a fight if you had a lot on your mind or were facing emotional issues during the time period. No taking credit away from Douglas and anyone who can withstand being pummeled from Tyson for that many rounds is definitely a champ.

I remember this fight like it was yesterday. I was the only bloke in work that backed Douglas to win. 👍👍

When Tyson brought down Buster the referee started the count almost 3 seconds late.

That night James Douglas was flawless, the king of the world. His name shook the entire world. If you were alive to experience that night, it was special. Thank you champ! We still watch is total awe, trust me

Me Quito el sombrero

This was the fight of his life for Douglas. Great performance. And he realized that uppercuts are a good tool against Tyson. No one is unbeatable (only a few exceptions in the old days)

Damn! Now that was a fight. Survival of the fittest

@@Dictyproductions tyson was fast but he was out of shape like like look at his conditioning in the other 11 world title defences compared to this an he wasnt as lean either i barley saw his abs.

Tyson wasn't used to going the rounds, he was all about speed and strength to knock them out early. Buster obviously watched Tyson's fights and knew that if he could hold and and wear Tyson down he'd have a chance.

one of the most raw and epic heavyweight boxing matches ever to be fought!!!!!!! Battle of the wills for sure.

Very nice, both if them!

Douglas was the biggest underdog in boxing history. 42-1... until he knocked Tyson out... its a miracle. If he'd kept that energy he would've become one of the greatest of all time. But for this achievement alone he will be remembered forever.

Buster was the first to take advantage of Tyson's limited height: he hit (hard!) from a distance, and clinched when Mike found a way in. Also, after destroying so many rivals in the first few rounds, Mike's long fight endurance was a question mark; Buster proved it wasn't that good. Holyfield used the same long fight approach in their two bouts. After the first, a frustrated Tyson knew he had to KO Evander right away; after three fruitless rounds, he resorted to savagery out of desperation.

It's a pity that Tyson hadn't trained for this match at all. With Holyfield he was too rusty from 3 years in prison.

I see this fight again n again. At a prime state of Tyson Douglas showed his confidence. Great Douglo

@@user-cg1ct2ex4q the thing is that he was not suppose to be hit if he was still as fast as he was when he was train by Rooney. And his leg aren't moving at all. Without a perfect training and a perfect technic Tyson could not be the best. And douglas after winning against tyson seems also to carless about his training and he was fat and slow when he boxes holyfield

No lucky punches. Like the movie Rocky Buster wanted this so much. His mother had passed away Buster said this fight was for his mother. He got his self in the best condition in his life. No way he was going to lose this. Damn he was so focused. Mike has no excuses the man who was the best prepared won. They say well Mike partied to much and did not do this or that. Mike was going to get beat that night for sure. Buster was not about to be denied!!

Tyson could not believe that after Buster was knocked down it just made Buster fight even harder. Buster was not the least bit afraid. Mike just did not know what to do. Finally a man that was stronger and no fear. Mike was in shock. I won 5000 dollars on this fight.

Tyson plain and simple got an ass kicking this night. If he had pulled it out it would of definitely put him in atg categories. He didn't though, but it gave the blue prints to beat him than evander did and then later Lewis. Tyson took a good beating before eventually going down though in those fights. He never had his comeback in a fight to win.

Let's face it, Mike Tyson was beat by a second rate boxer.

I love Mike tyson he's one of the 10 greatest heavyweight boxers in my opinion but on this night his one main weakness got exposed if he went up against a taller fighter who can jab really good then iron mike can be vulnerable most of his losses was against fighters who was taller and had really good Jab punches then mike Tyson will have a hard time avoiding those cuz u can't duck and dodge those jab u can get caught with a uppercut real quick that became Tyson main weakness
