Fan Put Tyson, King Down for the Count
- Share via
A great champion is marked by the ability to find a way to win on a night that you don’t have your best stuff. Your opponent is fighting, seemingly, over his head.
I think Mike (Tyson) found a way to win that night and then got jabbed by a long count.
His complaint, I’m sure, would have fallen on more audible ears if Don King were not his confidant, and had he not had the personal problems of the past year.
