In the latest clip, Buster Douglas explained the circumstances surrounding his loss to Evander Holyfield. After receiving a record-breaking $24.6 million, Douglas weighed in 15 pounds heavier than he did for the Tyson fight. The former heavyweight champion said the weeks leading up to the fight was a tough time for him between going through a court battle and trying to make weight four to five weeks before the fight. After losing 40 pounds before the Holyfield fight, suffered a third-round loss and went through a depression that lasted years. Buster Douglas' weight went from 246 to almost 400 pounds before he went into a diabetic coma, which he says was his wake-up call.
