As has been already stated it was a combination of Mike being lazy, fukking hookers for like 72 hours straight before the fight, and Buster being laser focused due to his mother’s recent passing. Buster went into the fight with a “i’m ready to DIE in this ring tonight” and tyson went in like:manny:

To me, Buster Douglas was simply an
opponent Mike Tyson overlooked and didn't take serious.

Far as Buster goes he was in the best shape of his life and focus. He fought
The fight in honor of his mother that had
recently passed. During that night Buster
could've beaten just about any other boxer that night he was in the zone.

Edit: I think we all can agree when Mike
knocked Buster out that 8 count was slow.

Slow huh?



I was a kid and knew there was something off about Mike in that fight.
shyt, all my pops homeboys was like, "yo Mike lookin kinda funny."

Fists upside the head from the opening bell usually do that. Buster whupped Tyson's ass from the opening bell to the KO. The only round Tyson won is the 8th when he knocked buster down.

Tyson didnt go on cocaine binges before michael spinks or in fights against boxers he thought were legit. He thought buster was a bum, which is what he was before and after the tyson fight. It was a perfect storm for him

Explain the Tubbs fight then. Same country. Same stadium. Same cocaine. Same whores. Different result.
