	*Williams' plan was to work behind his left jab and tie up Tyson whenever the champion got inside. One minute and fifteen seconds into the fight, Williams hit Tyson with a stiff left jab. When Williams threw another jab, Tyson slipped the punch by moving his head to his left and countered with a left hook that caught Williams on the jaw, sending the challenger down to the canvas. Williams slumped back when he first attempted to rise, but he was able to get up at the count of eight. Referee Randy Neumann took a look at Williams and stopped the fight. Williams protested the stoppage as many in the crowd booed Neumann's decision.		*Williams' plan was to work behind his left jab and tie up Tyson whenever the champion got inside.

	*As Williams fell, he and Tyson butted heads. Due to the butt, Williams tried to have the result of the bout changed to a no contest. His request was denied.		*As Williams fell, he and Tyson butted heads. Due to the butt, Williams tried to have the result of the bout changed to a no contest. His request was denied.

	*"My right hand is my better punch, but I never hit anyone with it. It is always my left hook. The hardest part is getting in to throw the left. Once I'm inside—bing—I throw it. There is nobody that can beat me. I love doing this. No man is invincible, but I will take all comers to find out." - Mike Tyson.		*"My right hand is my better punch, but I never hit anyone with it.
