"The Moment Of Truth"

Evander Holyfield
vs.
James "Buster" Douglas

THE MIRAGE
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA

October 25, 1990

Cruiserweight champion Evander Holyfield, who had only six heavyweight fights prior, would face Buster Douglas for the heavyweight championship of the world... This was Douglas' first fight after capturing the title off of his near-perfect performance against Mike Tyson in Tokyo, Japan on February 11, 1990... Could Holyfield deal with a full fledged heavyweight who was at the top of his game? Was Douglas that good or was Tyson that bad in Tokyo?... This was the "Moment Of Truth"

 

 

Here is a vintage signed photo of Evander Holyfield nailing James "Buster" Douglas with a straight right hand... The photo is signed and inscribed in a silver paint pen with Holyfield's full name vintage signature which he stopped signing in the early part of the 90's
