Fans Put Tyson, King Down for the Count
- Share via
Picture this scenario: Mike Tyson dominates the first seven rounds. Buster Douglas, however, delivers a fluke punch in the eighth round that knocks down Tyson, but the count is 12 1/2 instead of 10 seconds. Tyson goes on to knock out Douglas, who then holds a press conference claiming he should have the title because it was a long count. What would the WBC, WBA and Don King say to that?
