    Buster Douglas over Tyson. Not on a brutality level, but the fact that he completely outboxed him, and then sealed the deal with a big KO, against all the odds and all the hype, he bettered Tyson in every aspect, only losing 1 of the rounds due to a flash knockdown. It never surprised me that Tyson ducked that rematch.

    In boxing once a man gets found out, he's never the same again. Douglas showed the world many weaknesses that people did not now that Tyson had, and after that, the only thing Tyson won in his career was Holyfield's ear. Nash out

      That might be an interesting list. Fighters whose carreers collapsed after one loss. Compared to fighters who rallied and went on to bigger things.

      Tyson near the top of the former.

      Hearns near the top of the latter.

          - - Tyson was already found out, put on psychotropic experimental sedatives, and in the process of getting fleeced by Givens and DKing who took over his training team as he pried last remaining HOF original team Cayton out of the picture.

          Even shackled with all of that, like Dempsey with Tunney, he knocked Buster down for a legit Ten Count, ie 14 count, and was robbed of that KO, not a flash KD. King fast forwarded Buster to Field, so the title rematch was killed...

          What grade they put you back this spring?

            It was a longish count, but nothing unusual in boxing. you do realise that a 10 count in boxing is not literally 10 seconds? They are generally around 12-13 seconds, so there goes that excuse. Your boy was not as good as you want to believe he was, Queen. Nash out

              Gatti vs Gamache.

              And - of course - Resto vs Collins, the mother of all (dirty) beatings.

                Both those were nasty. Can add Margarito vs Cotto 1 and Pac vs Marg as 2 contemporary beatings

                  One of the worst ones ended with the fighter completely beaten up winning the fight: Jorge Castro vs John David Jackson.

                  And, among many tragic fights, I can't forget Gabe Ruelas vs Jimmy Garcia, a one-sided killing - literally.

                    The Douglas fight might be a symbol of Tyson's impending decline, but the worst physical beatings he took came from Lennox Lewis and Kevin McBride.

                      - - A 10 count is supposed to be based on 10 seconds, a major DUH for you.

                      I never had to administer one, but most folks have times in their lives where they have to estimate time, and whenever I check myself for giggles, I nail it every time. 14 seconds is a 40% error rate, and it's not like the Japanese crowd was screaming in the ref's ear like ****** Americans due.

                      Could've put one of the 50s B grade Horror movie Zombies in the ring and nobody could tell the difference between Tyson and the Zombie.

                      His grade school corner that DKing hired didn't even have essential corner equipment like Endswell.

                      Listen up though: I feel sorry for you, so just give me your bank account number and I'll have King deposit a large charity donation for your devotion......
