Description
37 fights. 37 victories. Zero defeats.
In 1990, Mike Tyson was considered virtually unbeatable.
Then a 42-to-1 underdog named James "Buster" Douglas stepped into the ring.
February 11, 1990. Tokyo, Japan.
Tyson was the undefeated, undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
Douglas was supposed to be just another opponent.
But he had something to prove.
Only 23 days before the fight, Douglas had lost his mother, Lula Pearl, who believed he could defeat Tyson.
What followed became one of the greatest upsets in boxing history.
Douglas outboxed Tyson for much of the fight, survived a devastating knockdown in round eight, and delivered an unforgettable knockout in round ten.
For the first time in his professional career, Mike Tyson had been defeated.
A victory that shocked the sporting world — and changed boxing history forever.
