feb 11, 1990. how many administrations, wars, etc since then? how many heavyweight champions? to me this just means we get old faster than we know. depressing.

I remember it well, had just returned home from a delicious dinner at Geno's East pizza in Chicago, this was before they decide to franchise and bastardize their pizza, its never been as good since. Anyway returned home and this was in the days where HBO showed fights like this normally, before that PPV BS on every fight. Tyson seemed lackluster all night.

As i remember there were not that many on the Dog that night as Most didnt think he had one chance. I know there was not Major money on this fight at that sportsbook, either side.
