| 00:00:00 | I don't think lenox needs to go
forward.
|
| 00:00:05 | He's place a straight right hand
on this center crown.
|
| 00:00:13 | Final moments of the fight.
|
| 00:00:17 | Sweeping left hand.
|
| 00:00:22 | That's got to be considered a
technical knockdown.
|
| 00:00:27 | The rope, the only thing that
holds him up there.
|
| 00:00:34 | And again, you can see that
right hand, depositive ground on
the floor.
|
| 00:00:45 | Doing a lot of the work for
lenox.
|
| 00:00:52 | >> Joe: So brown resting safely
now after the fight.
|
| 00:00:57 | He took some damage in round
number four.
|
| 00:01:00 | We'll hear from the judges when
we return.

espn classic presents one of the
greatest upsets in boxing
history.
|
| 00:05:18 | It's the 1990 heavyweight
championship fight between
mike tyson and
james "buster" douglas.
|
| 00:05:24 | AS THE '90s UNFOLDED, TYSON
Seemed unbeatable -- 37-0 with
33 knockouts.
|
| 00:05:30 | His menacing presence inside the
ring, coupled with his tabloid
lifestyle outside of the ring,
made it seem that tyson would be
a world figure, as eric clemons
explains in this vintage
"SportsCenter" REPORT ON THE EVE
Of the fight from tokyo.
|
| 00:05:43 | >> They call it "the big egg,"
the tokyo dome, here in japan,
and on sunday, here in japan --
saturday night in the
united states -- mike tyson
makes his first heavyweight
title defense in almost 7 months
against james "buster" douglas.
|
| 00:05:55 | Now, while most in the states
feel that this fight is of no
major consequence, any time the
undisputed heavyweight champion
of the world steps to this side
of the planet, it's always
considered a big deal.
|
| 00:06:05 | >> No, no, no.
|
| 00:06:06 | No, no, no.
|
| 00:06:07 | No, no, no.
|
| 00:06:08 | ..
|
| 00:06:09 | No, no, no.
|
| 00:06:11 | >> That's evidenced by the way
these japanese fans responded to
the champion upon his visit to
the aikido yoshinkan dojo for a
martial arts exhibition.
|
| 00:06:19 | Many of them ran simply to be
near him and grinned
uncontrollably as tyson obliged
with autographs, handshakes, and
smiles.
|
| 00:06:26 | But right now tyson's only true
interest is simply defending his
title.
|
| 00:06:31 | ..
|
| 00:06:34 | ..i'm just here for a
job.
|
| 00:06:37 | I'm ready to leave.
|
| 00:06:40 | I'm at peace with myself.
|
| 00:06:41 | I don't want to be a celebrity.
|
| 00:06:43 | I'm a champion.
|
| 00:06:44 | You know what I mean?
|
| 00:06:45 | A celebrity, you know, he's out
there showing his face, smiling.
|
| 00:06:48 | That's not me.
|
| 00:06:49 | >> Heading into the fight,
douglas had won 29 of 34
professional bouts.
|
| 00:06:54 | In his only other shot at a
heavyweight title, douglas was
stopped in the 10th round by the
ibf champ, tony tucker.
|
| 00:07:00 | Now let's head back to 1990 --
tyson and douglas for the
heavyweight championship, right
here on espn classic.
|
| 00:07:10 | >> While jimmy lennon jr.
|
| 00:07:10 | Continues his introductions,
we will take a look at the tail
of the tape, and you see there,
uh, mike tyson a few years
younger.
|
| 00:07:18 | He's actually 6 years younger.
|
| 00:07:20 | He's 11 1/2 pounds lighter
than is buster douglas, and he's
giving away 5 inches in height
and is a considerable reach
advantage you see there, too,
for buster douglas.
|
| 00:07:31 | Now let's listen to jimmy.
|
| 00:07:32 | >> And fighting out of columbus,
ohio.
|
| 00:07:35 | >> Yeah!
|
| 00:07:35 | >> His weight--231 1/2
pounds.
|
| 00:07:39 | His record--29 wins, 4 defeats,
one loss, one draw, with 19 wins
by way of knockout.
|
| 00:07:49 | He's ranked number 3 by the wbc,
number 4 contender in the wba.
|
| 00:07:55 | Please welcome the challenger--
james "buster" douglas.
|
| 00:08:02 | >> They don't know
buster douglas too well here,
but he's one of the real nice
guys in boxing with a great
opportunity tonight.
|
| 00:08:09 | >> And his opponent--
the defending champion
on my left--really needing
no introduction the world over.
|
| 00:08:17 | He's ready to fight out
of the red corner and attired
in black trunks.
|
| 00:08:22 | Hailing from catskill, new york,
he weighed in at a ready
220 1/2 pounds.
|
| 00:08:30 | His outstanding record--
37 wins, no defeats, with 33
big wins by way of knockout.
|
| 00:08:39 | He's making his tenth defense
of the heavyweight crown.
|
| 00:08:43 | Introducing the undefeated,
disputed heavyweight champion
of the world--the one and only
iron mike tyson.
|
| 00:08:59 | >> Just another day at work
for mike tyson.
|
| 00:09:01 | He looks almost bored
as they fall into the center
of the ring by the referee
octavio meyran.
|
| 00:09:06 | >> Gentlemen, remember
the dressing room instructions.
|
| 00:09:10 | Shake hands and good luck, both.
|
| 00:09:13 | >> Mike didn't have that
menacing look that we've seen
in so many of his fights before.
|
| 00:09:17 | Anyway, the stage is set.
|
| 00:09:19 | Now, you'll notice something
in the crowd here.
|
| 00:09:21 | They don't quite cheer the way
they do in the united states
and other places around
the world, so if you think
the crowd isn't into it,
we're in the tokyo dome.
|
| 00:09:29 | It seats some 60,000 people.
|
| 00:09:32 | There's about 30,000
to 35,000 here, but it's not
that they're not into the fight.
|
| 00:09:36 | It's just that they don't seem
to react the same way they do.
|
| 00:09:39 | You know, their baseball players
bow at the umpires in seball
when they're called out
on strikes, so that kind of
gives you an idea.
|
| 00:09:46 | The stage is set.
|
| 00:09:47 | We're set to go.
|
| 00:09:48 | Bob sheridan here.
|
| 00:09:49 | You see mike tyson in the black
trun--traditional--
and buster douglas.
|
| 00:09:53 | Well, buster--it's which
buster douglas has come
to fight tonight?
|
| 00:09:57 | We've seen him fight
outstandingly in many of his
fights.
|
| 00:09:59 | We're just underway here.
|
| 00:10:01 | 10-Point-must scoring system.
|
| 00:10:02 | 3 Judges will score the fight.
|
| 00:10:04 | Larry rozadilla
of the united states,
,
and mr. uchida from japan here.
|
| 00:10:11 | Mike will try to get in and land
that big right hand any time
he can.
|
| 00:10:15 | Buster, who's got a pretty good
left hand, and you see that jab.
|
| 00:10:17 | He's trying to hold mike off.
|
| 00:10:19 | If he's able to hold mike off,
this thing could go
a few rounds.
|
| 00:10:22 | If he can't hold mike off,
mike will dispose himarly.
|
| 00:10:27 | And that right hand got through.
|
| 00:10:29 | There's a surprise,
and one thing noticeable
right away here is that buster
is not backing up, and when he
gets in tight, he's not just
hanging on to mike.
|
| 00:10:37 | He's here to fight.
|
| 00:10:40 | Johnny johnson--his trainer--
AND J.D. McCAULEY ACTUALLY
Believe that buster douglas
can win this fight, but, golly,
how many trainers have we
listened to over the years
that, uh, you ow, I think
sometimes you get too close
to a fighter and you believe
things that you're hoping for,
but, uh, honestly speaking,
buster looks pretty good
in the early going here of this,
the first round of a scheduled
12-round world heavyweight
championship fight.
|
| 00:11:05 | And now the, uh, warning comes
about and the heads coming in.
|
| 00:11:09 | You saw mike's head come
right in the cheek there
of buster douglas.
|
| 00:11:13 | You see the way mike dips down,
and by the way, this is one
of the taller fighters, as we
reach the halfway point in this,
the first round, and you see
right away--buster not so
intimidated by mike.
|
| 00:11:24 | Couple of unusual things here.
|
| 00:11:26 | You know, against the guys
he won the title from,
like trevor berbick
and bonecrusher smith,
with the exception of
tony tucker, who mike won
the ibf title from,
everybody else has been really
intimidated by mike, and buster
is not showing a lot of that,
uh, you know, real intimidation
we've seen by other fighters
fighting mike.
|
| 00:11:45 | >> Hey, hey.
|
| 00:11:47 | >> The big thing is whether
he can sustain this.
|
| 00:11:49 | Of course, mike hasn't tagged
him yet with a big blow.
|
| 00:11:53 | >> Knuckle down, boy!
|
| 00:11:54 | >> Look at them as they exchange
here in round one.
|
| 00:11:57 | Oh, that right hand actually
caught mike!
|
| 00:11:59 | Now, mike may have taken it
on the glove there, but, uh,
buster is here to fight.
|
| 00:12:04 | This is a surprise, I think,
right away.
|
| 00:12:09 | You see again the key.
|
| 00:12:10 | They keep watching for this--
whether buster can hold him off
with the left hand, and what
nobody else has been ae
to do--can he actually ever
back mike off?
|
| 00:12:20 | >> Keep going, baby.
|
| 00:12:22 | >> There's that big lunging
left hook and buster able
to get--notice the right hand up
to protect the right ear.
|
| 00:12:27 | I think the height and reach
advantage, uh, certainly looking
like an advantage for
buster douglas here in the early
going.
|
| 00:12:34 | Buster in at 231 1/2--
11 1/2ounds heavier
than is mike tyson.
|
| 00:12:41 | Coming up to the closing seconds
of this, the first--wow!
|
| 00:12:44 | With a right hand,
it's buster douglas,
and mike comes right bacm
and answers it with a wild
left hand of his own.
|
| 00:12:49 | There's the bell ending
round one.
|
| 00:12:51 | I got to tell you, folks--
4 f1
>> while mike tyson was a
dominant force inside the ring,
many thought outside the ring he
was battling many personal
demons.
|
| 00:15:02 | As his career progressed, it
became apparent that it was only
a matter of time before these
stractions would eventually
catch up with him inside the
ring.
|
| 00:15:09 | For more on tyson's rise and
fall, here's al bernstein in his
continuing series, "bernstein on
"
>> by june of 1988, when
mike tyson dusted off
light-heavyweight champion
michael spinks in one round,
he'd accomplished more in his
first 3 years as a pro than one
might have ever expected.
|
| 00:15:28 | He produced 35 wins, all but 4
, won and defended the
heavyweight title 7 times, and
even managed to unify that
title, always a tough task in
the st 20 years of boxing
history.
|
| 00:15:41 | And he had done all this just 3
days shy of his 22nd birthday.
|
| 00:15:45 | The way he did it was with a
relentless fighting style that
featured head movement and
defense as much as aggression.
|
| 00:15:52 | And with it, a dedication to the
sport that seemed endless and a
personal ferocity that came to
life in the ring.
|
| 00:15:59 | After the spinks fight, changes
came quickly to tyson --
personal issues, new trainers, a
new promoter and manager, and,
ultimately, a new way of looking
at the sport of boxing.
|
| 00:16:10 | These changes and others, that
apparently were internal,
manifested themselves inside the
ring, marking his decline, and
would affect him for the rest of
his career.
|
| 00:16:20 | And the genesis of all that is
seen best in the fight featured
on this show -- his battle with
buster douglas.
|
| 00:16:27 | For espn classic, I'm
al bernstein.
|
| 00:16:30 | >> Who were the 3 fighters that
tyson beat to unify the title?
|
| 00:16:33 | Trevor berbick,
james "bonecrusher" smith, and
tony tucker.
|
| 00:16:37 | Now, though, we continue with
the 1990 heavyweight
championship fight between
mike tyson and
james "buster" douglas, here on
espn classic.
|
| 00:16:48 | >> Let's see how it goes here
in round 3.
|
| 00:16:50 | Mike looks like he's got
the adrenaline flow going
a bit better here.
|
| 00:16:54 | Mike, of course, has had some
personal problems, and you
wonder--everything has come
kind of easy for him.
|
| 00:17:01 | Is he bored?
|
| 00:17:02 | Um, you know, he had all
the highly publicized problems
with his marriage
with robin givens,
and, of course,
the death of cus d'amato--
good left hook to the body
that time and--
>> come on. don't do that, mike.
|
| 00:17:14 | Don't do that, mike.
|
| 00:17:15 | Break. ok.
|
| 00:17:16 | Ok.
|
| 00:17:19 | >> They tell me again, uh,
interesting information that
buster douglas has landed over
50 punches, and tyson's landed
only 16.
|
| 00:17:28 | Now, the problem is the judges
don't see those statistics
that we're telling you, so, uh,
I would say that the judges
probably scored the first round
even and the second round
in favor of buster douglas.
|
| 00:17:39 | You see mike much more
aggressive, but again, buster's
not being backed off
by mike tyson, which is
something we jushaven't se
in other fights.
|
| 00:17:47 | >> Now, no, no, no.
|
| 00:17:49 | >> Referee meyran tries
to separate the two big fellas,
and the action continues.
|
| 00:17:54 | It's clear that buster douglas
is not intimidated by
mike tyson.
|
| 00:17:58 | Mike not using a lot of
movement.
|
| 00:18:00 | You notice we haven't seen him
do the dip.
|
| 00:18:02 | He's kept that head kind of
in the face of buster douglas,
but we're only in round 3,
don't forget, and buster has
that history of kind of wearing
down as fights progress.
|
| 00:18:13 | Midway point now in this,
the third round.
|
| 00:18:17 | Octavio meyran, the third man
in the ring.
|
| 00:18:20 | His name is actually
octavio meyran sanchez.
|
| 00:18:23 | He goes by the last name meyran.
|
| 00:18:25 | >> That-a boy.
|
| 00:18:27 | >> Unbelievable the performance,
to this point anyway,
of buster douglas.
|
| 00:18:32 | Douglas, of course,
in the white.
|
| 00:18:34 | You see him faint right,
and then he doesn't throw
the right hand.
|
| 00:18:36 | Mike tying him up inside.
|
| 00:18:38 | Buer doing something
successful.
|
| 00:18:40 | When he gets mike inside,
he grabs on and holds.
|
| 00:18:43 | You see right there, and that
prevents mike from doing what
we've seen in other fights--
dipping down and then coming
with that big uppercut.
|
| 00:18:50 | Haven't seen an uppercut yet
by mike tyson.
|
| 00:18:55 | That one, he kind of shoots
from the hip and misses
the left hand and notice buster
doing a pretty good job getting
his right hand up by the ear
so he's not susceptible by
getting really creamed by that
left hook of mike tyson.
|
| 00:19:08 | Oh, that--there's the left hook
that got through!
|
| 00:19:10 | That's the first real telling
blow by mike ton, and now
let's see if buster can hang on
and keep him off.
|
| 00:19:16 | Instead, it's buster coming
back.
|
| 00:19:19 | Mike paws and lunges.
|
| 00:19:23 | Well, mike has been very
successful against some tall
guys.
|
| 00:19:27 | Bonecrusher smith--a big
tall guy.
|
| 00:19:29 | Mitch "blood" green--
..
|
| 00:19:33 | >> Down in front!
|
| 00:19:35 | And both of those opponents
just sort of hung on to mike,
but buster is hanging on when
he gets inside, but trying
to keep him off with the left
and then throwing
the right hand.
|
| 00:19:45 | Closing seconds now, as the bell
ends round number 3.
|
| 00:19:49 | >> Hey, hey.
|
| 00:19:49 | , ithisunthis,
s round 4.
|
| 00:21:23 | Bob sheridan here.
|
| 00:21:24 | We're in tokyo, japan,
and a beautiful arena here
where they--the yomiuri giants
play baseball most of the time,
and the japanese crowd of some
35,000 ohand here enjoying
what they certainly didn't
expect, and that's that we're in
the early moments here
of the fourth round in tokyo.
|
| 00:21:43 | >> Hey!
|
| 00:21:45 | Break, boys.
|
| 00:21:46 | >> Buster has been successful
getting his left jab through
and holding mike off.
|
| 00:21:51 | He really hasn't backed mike off
yet, and that would be
an indication if maybe buster's
for real, and mike, you saw,
landedhat big le hook,
and there he goes headhunting
with the right hand, and that's
what aaron snowell told him
in between the third and fourth
rounds.
|
| 00:22:09 | But again, their philosophy
may be to try to wear this
big guy down, but at this stage
into the fourth round, buster
not showing any signs
of slowing down.
|
| 00:22:19 | He looks a bit lethargic
here in the fourth.
|
| 00:22:21 | He's not up on his toes,
not shting out that left
as much--well, there he goes.
|
| 00:22:25 | As I say it, he throws a left
with a right right behind it.
|
| 00:22:28 | Notice another thing
about buster--
some pretty good hand speed,
and for some reason, mike
doesn't seem to be into it,
but he's a guy, as we've seen
so many times in other fights
that have gone any distance
at all, like against
jose ribalta that went 10
rounds, and, oh, I suppose
you could talk about that
rouvd fit with
tyrell biggs, but mike, when he
decides to pick up the pace,
can do it.
|
| 00:23:01 | Past the midway portion
of the fourth round,
and octavio meyran separates
them for about the 20th time
so far here.
|
| 00:23:10 | >> Concentrate!
|
| 00:23:12 | >> Open !
|
| 00:23:14 | >> Of course, the people on hand
here are thrilled that buster
is still around here
in the fourth round,
and the big question's going
to be, can he back mike off?
|
| 00:23:22 | Can he keep that left going?
|
| 00:23:24 | Oh, now, see, there's a right
hand that gets thrown.
|
| 00:23:27 | I'm talking about the big
questions, and all of a sudden,
the big fella executes it.
|
| 00:23:31 | See him bounce the head back
again of mike tyson?
|
| 00:23:36 | And he's been very successful
with the ability to tie mike's
hands up.
|
| 00:23:40 | For some reason, mike just
doesn't look as aggressive
and menacing as I've seen him
in so many other fights,
but all that can change
with one big shot and don't
ever forget that.
|
| 00:23:50 | that's a great thing about
the heavyweights.
|
| 00:23:53 | It's always sudden death.
|
| 00:23:55 | >> Break. break.
|
| 00:23:57 | All right.
|
| 00:24:00 | >> There's the ability
of buster douglas again.
|
| 00:24:02 | Yov have to say, in all
the fights and all the world
telecasts we've done that have
involved buster douglas,
this is the best I've ever
seen him look.
|
| 00:24:13 | And, of course, styles make
fights, and you see--
oh, there's mike missing that
big left that just grazed
the chin of buster douglas
and douglas answerjng with
loaded-up shots of his own
as the bell ends round 4.
|
| 00:24:26 | Hey, we've got a good fight
on our hands here in tokyo.
|
| 00:24:29 | Wow!
|
| 00:24:32 | Mike tyson just barely missed
that, uh, left-hand shot,
and right away, buster came
right back.
|
| 00:24:40 | ..
|
| 00:24:42 | As evander holyfield--
of course, he's in line.
|
| 00:24:46 | He's got a $12 million guarantee
for june, so, of course,
he wants everything to go
the way it's supposed to go.
|
| 00:24:53 | Evander, one of the great
warriors in this sport,
but he'll have his hands full
with tyson like everyone else
has had.
|
| 00:25:02 | Because I say that like I just
expect tyson to knock
buster douglas out, but this
4 f1
>> you're watching heavyweight
history, as mike tyson defends
his heavyweight title in 1990
against buster douglas, here
on espn classic.
|
| 00:26:50 | >> Your mouthpiece.
|
| 00:26:51 | Everything will be there, champ.
|
| 00:26:52 | >> You can come back, ok?
|
| 00:26:53 | >> Don't worry about it.
|
| 00:26:54 | >> A lot of confidence
in the corner of buster douglas.
|
| 00:26:59 | [Bell rings]
and buster filled with
confidence as we go to round
number 5.
|
| 00:27:04 | You know, my scorecard--
I actually have douglas winning
2, 3, and 4.
|
| 00:27:10 | And look at this.
|
| 00:27:11 | The first two big shots
and 3 and 4 shots landed
in this, the fifth round
are landed by
james "buster" douglas.
|
| 00:27:17 | T intimidated at all.
|
| 00:27:19 | Now, you see what I mean
about backing him off?
|
| 00:27:21 | This is the first guy I've seen
that's been able to do this.
|
| 00:27:23 | As I say that, mike comes
right for him.
|
| 00:27:26 | The trouble with trying
to alyze what buster is doing
now is I just have the feeling
that mike wants to drag this
into some later rounds,
but there was a real good
right hand that landed off
the hand of
james "buster" douglas.
|
| 00:27:38 | No, mike. no.
|
| 00:27:38 | [Indistinct]
no punches. ok.
|
| 00:27:42 | >> A little bit of swelling
and puffiness by that left eye.
|
| 00:27:44 | You see the jab followed by
the right hand?
|
| 00:27:47 | Mike with puffiness by that
left eye here in the fourth
round.
|
| 00:27:51 | >> No punches. break.
|
| 00:27:52 | Ok.
|
| 00:27:53 | >> Now, buster is back up
on his toes like he was
in the real early going.
|
| 00:27:59 | >> No, no, no.
|
| 00:28:00 | >> You know, as the rounds
go by, this guy is gaining
more confidence.
|
| 00:28:04 | >> Ok.
|
| 00:28:05 | >> So mike doesn'tanto drag
this thing any further than
he really has to now.
|
| 00:28:12 | Mike never used to being hit
as much as he's been hit
in this fight.
|
| 00:28:17 | Oh, big right hand landed
that time!
|
| 00:28:20 | Buster is--if 2, 3, and 4
is a question mark, he's winning
the fifth round handily.
|
| 00:28:28 | You don't need to be
a professional boxing judge
at the midway point here,
and even inside there, he lands
an uppercut.
|
| 00:28:37 | Mike lunging with the left hand,
and buster seems quick enough
on his feet, so as mike lunges
with that left hook, he's able
to slide back.
|
| 00:28:46 | A lot of that has to do with
the height and reach
that he has, but he's chosen
to stand and fight with mike
where bonecrusher smith
when he fought him
and mitch "blood" green--
every time they get anyplace
near mike, they just tied him
up, and it made for a lackluster
fight.
|
| 00:29:01 | Buster douglas, for however long
this goes, has come to fight.
|
| 00:29:07 | >> Ok.
|
| 00:29:10 | >> That-a boy. get to him.
|
| 00:29:11 | >> No, no.
|
| 00:29:13 | >> Buster's making a statement
that, at least, he's not afraid
of mike tyson, and that's
something that we can't say
for too many of the opponents
that have fought mike, no matter
whom they may be to this stage
in mike's young career.
|
| 00:29:31 | Is mike having an off night?
|
| 00:29:33 | You don't know.
|
| 00:29:34 | I mean, because again, the guy
that lives by the big punishing
punches--i've never seen him,
in any of his fights, behind
in the fights before, and again,
I use bonecrusher smith
and I use blood green because
they're the tallest guys that
I can recall him fighting.
|
| 00:29:50 | You see that punishing body shot
with the right hand to the side
of buster douglas' body?
|
| 00:29:57 | Coming up to the closing seconds
of the fif, and this is
certainly buster douglas' round.
|
| 00:30:00 | [Bell rings]
all right, and buster not taking
any of the shenanigans from
mike, and that tells you
something in itself.
|
| 00:30:08 | Back now, the corner
of mike tyson, and we'll listen
this time.
|
| 00:30:11 | >> You got to stay tight
on this guy, mike.
|
| 00:30:14 | You got to jab right hand
around here, left hook up here,
and come out with your right
hand, all right?
|
| 00:30:18 | You're here to punch him.
|
| 00:31:52 | >> Round 6.
|
| 00:31:54 | [Bell rings]
>> mike just not moving
laterally at all.
|
| 00:31:59 | He's standing and making himself
a nice target
for buster douglas.
|
| 00:32:02 | This is round 6.
|
| 00:32:04 | Scheduled for 12, and a big
surprise to this point
in the fight here in tokyo.
|
| 00:32:14 | I get buster winning 2, 3, 4,
and 5.
|
| 00:32:17 | That's unofficial, of course.
|
| 00:32:19 | The judges--rozadilla, morita,
and uchida of japan--will do
the official scoring,
but a blind man can see
certainly that douglas
is in command at this stage.
|
| 00:32:30 | >> Step back.
|
| 00:32:31 | And at one stage, I question
whether that could be the fight
plan--to drag it into the later
rounds--but buster not showing
any signs of wearing down,
at least to this point,
and we're in the sixth round.
|
| 00:32:42 | >> Come on, mike!
|
| 00:32:43 | Get ready! here he comes!
|
| 00:32:48 | >> Mike tyson with a long
history of early knockdowns
when he was fighting a lot.
|
| 00:32:56 | Very few fights get
to the second round.
|
| 00:32:59 | Almost all first-round
knockouts, and then you get into
the area of '86 where he
actually had to go 10 rounds
against quick tillis.
|
| 00:33:09 | It was his longest appearance
at that stage.
|
| 00:33:12 | It hasn't been a lot of rounds
since then.
|
| 00:33:16 | >> Step back, both.
|
| 00:33:17 | Step back.
|
| 00:33:17 | No punches. step back.
|
| 00:33:19 | All right.
|
| 00:33:20 | >> And it's, you know, a real
strange thing in my mind.
|
| 00:33:22 | I'm saying to myself, "hey,
is mike mentally prepared
to go the distance in this
"
and if so, he better
start winning some rounds.
|
| 00:33:30 | Mike looking a bit lethargic
to me for the first time that
I've seen him in his career.
|
| 00:33:36 | Oh, nice, nice jab by tyson
that time.
|
| 00:33:39 | See, again, I don't want to give
you the false impression that
mike couldn't end this
at any time because he still has
thunder in both hands, and you
get the idea now that
the adrenaline's pumping here
in the sixth round.
|
| 00:33:52 | Mike has got to realize that
he's behind in this fight.
|
| 00:33:56 | You know, he's a guy that things
have come very easy for him
so far.
|
| 00:33:59 | Now he's got a man who's
..
|
| 00:34:03 | And this is when they separate
the great champions from
the guys who are around
for a while--is how they face
adversity, and mike has got
to reboundrom this because,
certainly, buster's having
a good time of it to this point.
|
| 00:34:16 | Whatever the case may be
in the eventual outcome,
this is turning into a terrific
fight, and it's gonna be
a memorable one.
|
| 00:34:24 | Look at buster with
the movement.
|
| 00:34:27 | Mike continues to stay
flatfooted, not showing a lot
of boxing skills.
|
| 00:34:32 | We haven't seen any uppercs
from mike.
|
| 00:34:35 | We haven't seen him dip down.
|
| 00:34:36 | >> Use the jab to get him there,
mike.
|
| 00:34:38 | >> And looking, again,
almost lethargic looking to land
the big blow, which was thrown
about 3 or 4 times
in this fight.
|
| 00:34:45 | A couple have landed,
but buster's been able
to gobble them up.
|
| 00:34:48 | You see that one? just off.
|
| 00:34:50 | We're in the closing seconds now
of this, the sixth round,
and every time mike--
[bell rings]
mike does that hop, skip,
and a jump as the bell ends
the sixth round--
buster seems
to realize it and backs off.
|
| 00:37:27 | >> Look at that swelling
of the left eye of mike.
|
| 00:37:29 | That can become a problem.
|
| 00:37:31 | [All talking at once]
>> everything off of 7.
|
| 00:37:37 | >> Round 7.
|
| 00:37:39 | [Bell rings]
here we go
in the seventh round.
|
| 00:37:42 | Bob sheridan here in tokyo,
japan.
|
| 00:37:44 | This is for the undisputed
heavyweight championship
of the world.
|
| 00:37:47 | Mike tyson in the black trunks,
having a very tough time of it
against james "buster" douglas.
|
| 00:37:53 | You know, coming into the fight,
emotionally speaking,
buster probably has everything
going for him.
|
| 00:38:00 | A lot of talk about the death
of his mother and the dedication
that this is his night
and all of that sort of stuff,
but just one big shot
from mike tyson can end
all that speculation, and mike
looks like he's really trying
to land a big shot here
in the seventh round.
|
| 00:38:15 | [Indistinct yelling]
>> punch him there, mike.
|
| 00:38:20 | >> Break. break!
|
| 00:38:22 | All right. break.
|
| 00:38:25 | >> The way the fight's going
to this point, you at least
have to begin thinking
the possibility of an upset
because I have buster
considerably out in front
in my scorecard.
|
| 00:38:36 | In fact, at this stage
in the fight, I don't have
mike tyson winning one round.
|
| 00:38:39 | I scored the last round even.
|
| 00:38:41 | I was stretching to score it
even for that round,
and I scored the first round
even, but I scored 2, 3, 4,
and 5 all in favor
of buster douglas.
|
| 00:38:53 | Buster one of the real nice guys
in the boxing game,
having the best night
of his life.
|
| 00:38:58 | Mike--if he's not having
an off night, he's not having
a great night.
|
| 00:39:02 | He's not able to execute
a lot of things.
|
| 00:39:04 | His hands aren't real busy.
|
| 00:39:06 | He's throwing a lot of wide
punches, and every time,
just like that time,
..
|
| 00:39:11 | >> Break!
|
| 00:39:12 | >> Being landed by
james "buster" douglas.
|
| 00:39:17 | Octavio meyran.
|
| 00:39:19 | Again, you see the jab
holding mike off, and more often
than not, he's landed--
oh, look at the shot inside
by mike that time.
|
| 00:39:28 | Doesn't seem to hurt buster.
|
| 00:39:29 | He's in great shape.
|
| 00:39:30 | There's no question about it.
|
| 00:39:31 | Look at him pushing mike off.
|
| 00:39:33 | Now, there's something
you haven't seen.
|
| 00:39:36 | Buster has got the confidence
and perhaps--you know, you go
back to when leon spinks fought
muhammad ali.
|
| 00:39:43 | When he got to this stage
in the fight, he had to just
say, you know, "hey, maybe
I can beat this guy
muhammad ali" is spinks'
thinking, and now you definitely
get the idea that douglas
is saying, "hey, I can beat
tyson.
|
| 00:39:57 | "
and when a fighter believes
in himself, and he's ahead
in the scorecard, if he doesn't
run out of gas, how dangerous
can he be?
|
| 00:40:08 | I don't know.
|
| 00:40:10 | But I'll tell you one thing--
there's the first or second
uppercut we've seen by
mike tyson inside.
|
| 00:40:16 | Buster trying to get off with
a kind of half right-handed
uppercut that time.
|
| 00:40:21 | Both guys--and buster showing
a little bit more fatigue here.
|
| 00:40:26 | I think mike probably having
his best round of the fight
to this point.
|
| 00:40:30 | Nice shot inside.
|
| 00:40:31 | [Indistinct yelling]
and now you get the idea
that at some stage here,
mike can land a big shot
and end this fight.
|
| 00:40:40 | [Bell rings]
there's the bell ending
..and that, to me,
is tyson's first round
of the fight.
|
| 00:40:50 | >> Got to do combinations,
all right?
|
| 00:40:52 | [All talking at once]
>> all right? you're down.
|
| 00:40:58 | >> You know, we showed you
a shot of evander holyfield,
but one of the big surprises
in this training camp
of mike tyson's was greg page,
who actually dropped him
in training.
|
| 00:41:07 | That was a big surprise,
and he immediately got
greg page out of there
as a sparring partner because
don king said, "hey, page,
if he's able to do that
in training, we could make him
"
don't forget--greg was a former
wba heavyweight champion
of the world and could be
s
his heavyweight title in 1990
against buster douglas, here
on espn classic.
|
| 00:43:19 | >> And here we go with
the eighthound, and let's see
if mike can sustain what
he started in the seventh,
or buster is gonna get right
back on top of his game.
|
| 00:43:28 | We're in tokyo, japan.
|
| 00:43:29 | I'm bob sheridan.
|
| 00:43:30 | You're watching the heavyweight
championship of the world.
|
| 00:43:32 | Mike tyson throwing a little bit
more leather here now
in the early going
of the eighth round.
|
| 00:43:37 | Buster tying him up.
|
| 00:43:39 | >> Break, james.
|
| 00:43:40 | >> Expect them to see
some fatigue
from buster, but no matter what
the story is, you never expect
them to be in the eighth round
of this heavyweight championship
fight.
|
| 00:43:52 | Buster looking a little bit
sloppy now.
|
| 00:43:56 | >> Break. break.
|
| 00:43:57 | In the second, third, fourth,
and fifth rounds, buster able
to back mike off with that jab
and then land the right hand
behind it.
|
| 00:44:05 | Let's see if he can get back
to that.
|
| 00:44:07 | Oh, instead, mike nds
a pretty good right hand
of his own inside!
|
| 00:44:10 | >> Break, james.
|
| 00:44:12 | >> And there's got to be a sense
of urgency for mike.
|
| 00:44:14 | I think his corner has told him
enough that, uh, you know,
you're giving away a few rounds.
|
| 00:44:20 | They don't have the advantages
that we have with the replays
and the punch stats which
are relayed to me, but by
the same token, they've got
two eyes, and they can see that
to this point in the fight,
buster douglas is ahead,
but in this eighth round,
buster's not the same guy he was
in the third, fourth, and fifth,
and even into the sixth round.
|
| 00:44:39 | Mike trying to sustain what he
did in the seventh here.
|
| 00:44:42 | >> Don't relax, champ!
|
| 00:44:43 | Don't relax!
|
| 00:44:45 | >> All right. get him, boy.
|
| 00:44:46 | >> We got him, buster!
|
| 00:44:49 | >> We find out from the truck
again that mike has only
aved about 25, 26 punches
through the first 6 or 7 rounds,
and he's already throwing more
punches than that, I think,
in the eighth round.
|
| 00:45:01 | He's busier, and again,
for about the sixth time,
octavio meyran warns the two
fighters about the heads coming
together.
|
| 00:45:08 | Neither fighter's been down.
|
| 00:45:10 | Neither fighter visibly shaken.
|
| 00:45:12 | Mike has puffiness by the left
eye.
|
| 00:45:15 | Buster--a little abrasion
by his left eye.
|
| 00:45:19 | with a left hand
is buster douglas.
|
| 00:45:22 | Buster drops that big right
hand, but mike takes it on
the gloves, and he backs up mike
again with a left.
|
| 00:45:27 | with a right hand
is buster!
|
| 00:45:29 | >> Hey, both!
|
| 00:45:31 | >> Buster trying to really work
the left eye of mike tyson.
|
| 00:45:35 | He hit right there,
right on top of him
just as I say it.
|
| 00:45:38 | with a right hand
that time is buster!
|
| 00:45:40 | Buster trying to finish this
thing, and you get an idea mike
is trying to finish it as well.
|
| 00:45:45 | This has turned out to be
..
|
| 00:45:50 | And the fact of the matter is
it's buster that's makg it
the fight.
|
| 00:45:54 | Look at these shots landed by
buster douglas, and if buster
was out of gas in the early
going of this round, he's got it
back together in the late
portion here.
|
| 00:46:01 | Grazing left hand.
|
| 00:46:02 | Chopping right misses.
|
| 00:46:04 | Uppercut landed by mike tyson.
|
| 00:46:06 | That's one of the few uppercuts
he's landed in the fight.
|
| 00:46:09 | We've been looking for that
all night.
|
| 00:46:11 | Oh, there was a nice uppercut
that time that drops
buster douglas!
|
| 00:46:15 | The count's up to 2 and 3 and 4.
|
| 00:46:19 | His eyes from where I'm sitting
look very clear.
|
| 00:46:22 | It's up to 7 and 8,
and here it is at 9.
|
| 00:46:25 | Is he gonna get up?
|
| 00:46:26 | Yes, he does.
|
| 00:46:28 | All right.
|
| 00:46:29 | [Bell rings]
and the bell ends
the eighth round!
|
| 00:46:32 | What a round for mike tyson!
|
| 00:46:34 | Wow!
|
| 00:46:36 | What a turn of events!
|
| 00:46:40 | >> You made a mistake.
|
| 00:46:41 | ..
|
| 00:46:41 | >> We're gonna show you some
replays here.
|
| 00:46:44 | Now let's listen to the corner
just a bit.
|
| 00:46:47 | >> You got to double your jabs.
|
| 00:46:49 | Straight right hand.
|
| 00:46:50 | >> Trying to get his bearings
ba.
|
| 00:46:52 | Trying to get those legs back,
as you look at the replay.
|
| 00:46:54 | It'll be an uppercut from
mike tyson that eventually
catches him, and there it is.
|
| 00:46:58 | Look at that.
|
| 00:46:59 | That's a clean right uppercut,
and down went buster douglas.
|
| 00:47:04 | Different angle.
|
| 00:47:05 | Look at the head snap
..
|
| 00:47:10 | And that's the mike tyson
we've been looking for
all night.
|
| 00:47:14 | And now the big question is,
can buster get it together
between the eighth and ninth
round?
|
| 00:47:20 | Look at that.
|
| 00:47:21 | What a vicious uppercut.
|
| 00:47:23 | Is it just another day
at the office for mike tyson?
|
| 00:47:26 | Well, here we go with round
number 9.
|
| 00:47:28 | Now, let's see if mike can
sustain it, and he's got
the adrenaline flow going.
|
| 00:47:33 | He wants to end this thing now.
|
| 00:47:36 | The ninth round of a fight
we never expected to be
this far, so no matter what
happens, we give a lot of credit
to buster douglas for making
this a big, big fight.
|
| 00:47:46 | Tyson trying to end it with one
big shot again.
|
| 00:47:49 | When he's down, he comes with
the uppercut.
|
| 00:47:50 | Somehow or another, buster's
throwing shots back!
|
| 00:47:53 | Look at this!
|
| 00:47:55 | Buster is not ready to pack
it in.
|
| 00:47:58 | His mind is willing.
|
| 00:48:00 | Are his legs still there?
|
| 00:48:03 | Mike misses with that vicious
left uppercut this time.
|
| 00:48:07 | We're in the ninth round--
a place nobody expected us
to be in.
|
| 00:48:13 | Look at these shots just loading
up by mike tyson now.
|
| 00:48:15 | Mike wants to end this.
|
| 00:48:17 | He's had enough
of buster douglas for one night
in tokyo.
|
| 00:48:22 | >> Break! break!
|
| 00:48:23 | [Indistinct yelling]
>> buster seems to have
the bounce back in his legs.
|
| 00:48:29 | In fact, he looks better
right now in this, the ninth
round, than he did in 7 and 8.
|
| 00:48:33 | In his history, when he's got
fatigued, he begins to buckle,
but he's not buckling now.
|
| 00:48:38 | >> No, no, no.
|
| 00:48:38 | >> He's doing the right things.
|
| 00:48:40 | He's still sloppy, mind you,
in some ways.
|
| 00:48:46 | >> You know buster's mother
who died a couple weeks ago
might be watching and giving him
just that extra inspiration
that he needs.
|
| 00:48:56 | Whatever it is, he's fighting
back like I haven't seen
buster do.
|
| 00:49:00 | Certainly, in the tony tucker
fight when he got in trouble,
he kind of--well, he folded up.
|
| 00:49:05 | There's no question about it,
but buster has something special
going tonight.
|
| 00:49:12 | We're past the midway point
in round 9, and I expected
mike--look at th!
|
| 00:49:16 | Look at buster coming back!
|
| 00:49:17 | Did he buckle the legs of mike?
|
| 00:49:19 | I don't know!
|
| 00:49:20 | He got him again!
|
| 00:49:21 | Buster fights back strongly,
landing some big shots!
|
| 00:49:25 | And now he can't get careless!
|
| 00:49:26 | Look at this!
|
| 00:49:28 | Who would ever have expected
this?
|
| 00:49:30 | In a round that thought buster
would pack it in, he comes back,
showing the heart,
the tremendous heart that we've
seen sometimes and lacking
in others.
|
| 00:49:40 | Tonight, buster's got
the heart back.
|
| 00:49:43 | Wow!
|
| 00:49:44 | Mike now is the one that's
hanging on the ropes.
|
| 00:49:48 | Without the ropes, mike may have
gone down as well!
|
| 00:49:54 | I haven't seen mike in this kind
of trouble before.
|
| 00:49:57 | Look at mike actually grasping
to hang on!
|
| 00:50:00 | Mike missing the shots.
|
| 00:50:01 | Buster loading up the shots now.
|
| 00:50:04 | A seesaw battle, it's turned out
to be from 6, 7, into the eighth
and now the ninth round.
|
| 00:50:12 | >> Right there.
|
| 00:50:13 | >> Buster down, as you know,
in the last round.
|
| 00:50:15 | Come off the canvas.
|
| 00:50:17 | This has been something he's not
been able to do.
|
| 00:50:20 | Closing seconds of the ninth
..
|
| 00:50:23 | And this is a big surprise.
|
| 00:50:24 | [Bell rings]
there's the bell
ending the ninth round
the significance of what we just
saw is buster's history has been
when adversity comes, he's had
trouble coming back.
|
| 00:50:39 | Mike's history is, when he gets
a guy in trouble,
he's a great finisher.
|
| 00:53:36 | >> It was late in the eighth
round when buster was in a lot
of trouble when he got knocked
down, but in the ninth round,
buster actually came back.
|
| 00:53:43 | Look at these in these replays.
|
| 00:53:45 | You see mike get one big shot
in there, but buster landed
2 or 3 and look at this.
|
| 00:53:50 | Buster catches him behind
the head.
|
| 00:53:51 | Another flush left hook,
trying to get those arms free.
|
| 00:53:57 | Bangs the body.
|
| 00:53:58 | Back upstairs to the head.
|
| 00:53:59 | Buster doing just about
everything right, but mike
landed that big shot in between,
but it didn't take a toll
on buster.
|
| 00:54:08 | >> Round 10.
|
| 00:54:11 | [Bell rings]
>> buster douglas absolutely
having the night of his life
to this point.
|
| 00:54:15 | Oh, mike tries to land a big
right hand to open the 10th
round.
|
| 00:54:20 | Mike wants to finish this thing
in the worst way, and according
to my scorecard, he almost
needsto.
|
| 00:54:28 | Let's see if buster can sustain
through the 10th round.
|
| 00:54:31 | a right hand landed
as the referee was breaking
them.
|
| 00:54:34 | Mike misses the uppercut.
|
| 00:54:37 | Mike's left eye is really
closing up now,
as I take a look how he--
if you get a good shot.
|
| 00:54:41 | Well, you can't see it,
but I can, and his eye is really
absolutely closed on the left
side.
|
| 00:54:48 | >> Short right hands!
|
| 00:54:49 | >> That, uh, jab that buster
was good at in the early going,
but the big surprise to me
is the way buster came back
in the ninth round.
|
| 00:54:56 | [Referee indistinct]
look at this.
|
| 00:54:59 | Buster not intimidated.
|
| 00:55:00 | He wants to keep it going.
|
| 00:55:02 | Mike actually--his legs--
notice his legs in these
wide shots.
|
| 00:55:05 | He doesn't have good bounce
in his knees.
|
| 00:55:08 | Buster's legs actually look
fresher to me.
|
| 00:55:11 | See mike--the way he went back
on his heels?
|
| 00:55:13 | Doesn't have the good balance.
|
| 00:55:14 | His legs together as buster's
landing these--
oh, nice uppercut
by buster douglas!
|
| 00:55:19 | Look at this!
|
| 00:55:20 | He's knocked mike tyson down.
|
| 00:55:22 | For the first time in his
career,
mike tyson hits the canvas!
|
| 00:55:27 | He's in big trouble!
|
| 00:55:29 | He may not be able to recover!
|
| 00:55:30 | It's up to 7 and 8!
|
| 00:55:33 | He's not gonna make it!
|
| 00:55:34 | Unbelievable!
|
| 00:55:36 | Unbelievable!
|
| 00:55:37 | Unbelievable!
|
| 00:55:39 | Buster douglas is the new
heavyweight champion
of the world!
|
| 00:55:45 | This has got to be, if not the,
one of the biggest upsets
in the history of boxing!
|
| 00:55:53 | Buster douglas--the new
undisputed heavyweight champion
of the world!
|
| 00:55:59 | It happens here in tokyo, japan!
|
| 00:56:04 | Wow! what a surprise!
|
| 00:56:09 | Mike--definitely confused.
|
| 00:56:13 | Oh, what a surprise!
|
| 00:56:15 | Folks, I've called a lot
of great fights over the years,
but this upset, as you take
a look at that left eye of mike,
certainly one of the biggest.
|
| 00:56:27 | Aaron snowell just there told
mike that he was counted out.
|
| 00:56:32 | [Cheering]
mike, kind of obviously unaware
of what happened and look at
buster.
|
| 00:56:41 | John horne there.
|
| 00:56:43 | Rory holloway.
|
| 00:56:46 | A lot of concern to that corner.
|
| 00:56:48 | [Captioning made possible by
]
what a scene here in tokyo.
|
| 00:56:56 | Who would have believed this?
|
| 00:56:58 | Boy, I'll tell you one thing--
when the heavyweight
championship is on the line,
this is why, folks, you can't
afford to miss it no matter who
the opponent is.
|
| 00:57:06 | This is unbelievable.
|
| 00:57:08 | Two jabs.
|
| 00:57:09 | Third jab--a glancing blow.
|
| 00:57:12 | Mike's legs weren't there
at this stage, in my opinion.
|
| 00:57:15 | Still coming forward, and there
is just a great uppercut,
and it's that uppercut that had
mike back reeling and then
followed up by a real strong
left hand, and as it worked out,
that's all she wrote, as mike
is now about to be counted out.
|
| 00:57:32 | Wow.
|
| 00:57:34 | Boy, you talk about mike being
out of breath and out of gas
and some of the big upsets.
|
| 00:57:41 | This is unbelievable.
|
| 00:57:43 | I'm out of breath
and out of gas.
|
| 00:57:45 | This was a draining fight
to call and to watch, but what
a great sporting event to be at.
|
| 00:57:53 | I mean, you're talking about
clay-liston, spinks and ali--
some of the great upsets
of all time.
|
| 00:58:00 | This is going
to the record books.
|
| 00:58:02 | Folks, what you've seen is now--
I mean, now that I can think
about it--is really a very,
very historical fight.
|
| 00:58:10 | One more look at it.
|
| 00:58:11 | There's the big uppercut
that changes the course
of boxing history, followed by
the big left hand right--bang!
|
| 00:58:18 | Right there.
|
| 00:58:20 | Oh, look at this and buster
still throwing punches.
|
| 00:58:22 | Another big left hand,
throwing the punches as he goes
down, and mike, for all
practical purposes,
as the mouthpiece flies,
is out right here.
|
| 00:58:31 | What a night for buster douglas.
|
| 00:58:33 | Now there'll be all kinds
of questions about mike tyson
and his mental preparation
for this fight and the change
of trainers and the future
for mike and--wow.
|
| 00:58:43 | What is this gonna d
to the heavyweight picture?
|
| 00:58:45 | It'll be all a jumble now
with this man--the new
heavyweight champion
of the world.
|
| 00:58:52 | We'll have the official
announcement from
and listen
a very historical announcement.
|
| 00:59:01 | >> We have the time--one minute,
23 seconds in round number 10.
