The people i took money off decided tyson was on the slide about a fortnight later...on the night they were prepaired to sit up whilst 5 o clock in the morning to see the baddest man on the planet.
Duran wasnt on the slide when kirkland faced him...he simply met his antidote.
If I remember rightly Greg page put Tyson down in sparring so the seeds were already sowed. Tyson was already losing the plot after spinks fight .People decided he was on the slide after the fight was over...he was on his weight and 35 to 1 on and faced a boxer puncher that wasnt the least bit intimidated...douglas hadnt hit the 16+ stone marker for yrs...he booked a ringside seat for his young son to watch his pa win the heavy title...douglas bouncing his 6ft 4inch frame to 8ft 4inch at the start noticably troubled tyson, the olde kirkland trick from douglas once the fight started drove even more doubt...it was written all over his face. He was getting faced with choppy straight rights and lefts from a push off like a whipper snapper was making him have it...it wasnt supposed to go like this but unfortunately baddest man on the planet only owned one style...

What you bet with your mates on Douglas winning ?
He did but that. Means nothing when you get chopped by punches .If i remember rightly tyson opened up when the fight was made at 35-1 on
