Mike Tyson vs. Henry Tillman

Mike Tyson vs. Henry Tillman, billed as The Road Back, was a professional boxing match contested on June 16, 1990.

[1] In his previous fight, Mike Tyson had lost his undisputed heavyweight title after being knocked out in the tenth round by 42–1 underdog James "Buster" Douglas in one of the biggest upsets in sports history.

After a failed protest, Tyson's promoter Don King attempted to quickly gain a rematch with Douglas, but Douglas turned down King's offer and instead chose to face the number one contender Evander Holyfield.

Tillman entered the fight as a 25–1 underdog and was given virtually no chance of defeating Tyson.

Tillman remained on his back as the referee counted him out and Tyson was named the winner by way of knockout at 2:47 of the first round.
