Since being released from prison, Mike Tyson had won all three of his fights in dominating fashion, easily defeating obscure fighters Peter McNeeley and Buster Mathis, Jr. before capturing the WBC Heavyweight title by defeating Frank Bruno via 3rd round knockout. Tyson now faced off against defending WBA title holder Bruce Seldon for the WBA Heavyweight title........Tyson would easily defeat Seldon by 1st round knockout in one of the shortest Heavyweight championship fights in boxing history, lasting just 1:49. From the opening bell, Tyson would be the aggressor. Seldon would attempt to weather Tyson's storm by attempting to connect his powerful left jab, but Tyson was able to dodge Seldon's attempts. At around 1:12 of the fight, Seldon was knocked down by a Tyson punch that seemingly only grazed Seldon. Seldon would answer the referee's count at 8 and continue the fight only to almost immediately get knocked down again by a punch that didn't seem the land at full force. Seldon slowly got back on his feet but was unable to maintain his balance, causing referee Richard Steele to stop the fight and award Tyson the victory by way of knockout.
