35 years ago, James "Buster" Douglas defeated Mike Tyson via KO in Round 10 of 12 to win the IBF, WBA, and WBC Heavyweight Titles.

One of the biggest and most iconic upsets in the history of the sport and the first defeat in Tyson's professional career.

Oh man, the Buster Douglas vs. Mike Tyson fight in 1990 is still talked about as one of the biggest upsets in sports history, even 35 years later! I can only imagine what it must have been like to be in the crowd that night at the Tokyo Dome to witness it all go down.

Tyson was on top of the world back then, the undisputed heavyweight champion with a record of 37-0 and 33 KOs. Nobody thought he was going to have any trouble against this underdog challenger, Buster Douglas. The bookies had Tyson as a massive 42-1 favorite! It was basically seen as a tune-up fight for Tyson before his big showdown with Evander Holyfield.

I can imagine fans jumping up and down, high-fiving strangers, just in complete shock over what they had just witnessed. Buster Douglas, the massive underdog, had just dethroned the unbeatable Mike Tyson! That's the kind of moment that gets etched into sports history forever. Even 35 years later, it's still regarded as one of the craziest, most memorable fights of all time. I wish I could have been there to see the look on everyone's faces when Tyson hit the canvas. What an unbelievable night that must have been!

Additional question: For those who saw the fight live when it happened, what was your reaction in 1990 when Buster Douglas knocked out Mike Tyson in Japan? And do you remember where you were when Buster Douglas upset Mike Tyson in 1990?

Do y’all believe MJ actually had an active dating life? Serious question because I always hear about secret relationships with nothing to show.

Can we be real? In MJ’s 50 years on Earth, he was only ever connected to his two wives, Lisa Marie Presley and Debbie Rowe, and the general consensus is that Debbie was just a glorified surrogate. So that leaves us with ONE (1) woman.

Personally, I believe MJ was celibate for a majority of his life or even possibly a virgin until he met Lisa, but that’s unpopular here, but like, why? There is no evidence of anything else, well, except that one other thing.

In fact, his love life is so dry that his own fans have to either believe what I do and/or believe that LMP was his true love (which is fair considering they both claimed each other).

or believe he was with Stephanie Mills (who he never claimed)

or that he was with UNDERAGED Brooke and Tatum (who both refused to claim him)

or believe that he was with Diana Ross, which would make her a predator because she knew him since he was 11 and was an active part of his childhood (but she also never claimed him, and he himself said that what he had with Diana was in his head).

So, like, does that not say something? Those who believe he was outside acting up, please explain it to me.

and for the sake of the question lets say the people you are texting are friends or acquaintances that you have been talking to for awhile. if you ever not reply to texts sometimes is it for a reason or you just forget?

And if its for a reason what would you say it is? maybe something they said? they bored you? you lost interest? You didn't know what to reply back with?

One cool job I contemplated looking into is a year-round lifeguard cross-trained EMT. Although, I am out of shape and I am likely just dreaming.

Anyways, I thought working on the Gulf of America beaches would be a dream come true. White powdery sand, less choppy and chaotic waves... what are your thoughts?
