Firefox Favourite Manga Dragonball	Buster Douglas was quite a good boxer but he wasn't exactly world class looking at his record. What was going on With Mike Tyson at that time for him to lose to somebody who was essentially just a good journeyman? Did he have anger issues and problems with his trainers and management? Was it around this time that he started going off the rails? What was going with him? He should have taken this guy out within 3 rounds just like Holyfield did.

If you watch the Fight, you can see that Tyson wasn't him self, from the first round there he wasn't as aggressive as usual. I also remember Tyson saying in a recent Interview, that he lost his passion for Boxing around 1990.
