I would like to say happy birthday to former WBC heavyweight champion the the man who was the last opponent for Muhammad Ali and the same man who got knocked out by Mike Tyson, Trevor Berbick who turns 52 today.

Happy birthday indeed.

Anyone heard anything about him lately? The last I heard is that he failed a brain scan and a while later was back in Jamaica.

Berbick claims the lose to Tyson was a result of him being drugged by the air conditioning in his hotel room. He claims 'the powers that be' wanted to make sure Tyson won that fight.

I shall celebrate this moment by replaying his Tyson fight several times until it reaches 52 knockdowns!

For a Heavyweight challenger he had quite a memorable career.

He was convicted of sexual assault in 1992 .Only served about a year and a half I believe. The Family babysitter I think. He was living in Miami at the time.
Afterwards he violated parole and was deported.

That is the most unreasonable excuse I’ve heard. He stood no chance against Tyson, but I do give him props for attempting to stand back up after all those blows he took.

Air Coo'......Deadly stuff, absolutely devastating to a boxer. So that finally explains it. I always wondered about that.
