Yes! I've been trying to find the promo at 16:14 for 20 years. I have it on VHS somewhere but no VCR to play it. "For 2 years I waited for Mike Tyson. Then Buster Douglas came out of nowhere and flattened em. They say he has a good left jab, and a hard right hand, and that's what made em the champ. I say it was luck". Always loved that, even though I knew Real Deal didn't believe it was luck at all, it's just a promo. Thank you!!

@@BoxingOutsidetheRopes Yes, I'm not exaggerating! I'm a rabid Holyfield fan and I bought the Douglas-Holyfield PPV as a high school kid which was notable b/c a few reasons: 1) The fight was held on a Thursday evening - can you imagine that? 2) I believe it was the first ever TVKO event, which later became HBO PPV. And I just remember that promo I referenced being played endlessly on my cable tv.

1:04 - Holyfield looked like the champ and Buster looked like the challenger. I remember before the fight I had no doubt Holyfield was going to win. Wasn't surprised he won when I read about it in the paper the next day. When Buster weighed in overweight it felt like it was already over. I remember at the time the fight was like a formality.

He sure did, but I'd say overall Douglas has more natural ability and he is a natural heavyweight. But none of that matters if you don't care if you win or lose.
