Trevor Berbick | November 22, 1986 | Hilton Hotel, Las Vegas, Nevada
Outcome: Second Round Knockout | 2:35 | Won WBC Heavyweight title
Fresh from winning the WBC Heavyweight title from Pinklon Thomas 8 months prior, the late Trevor Berbick had his first title defense since regaining the WBC title but unfortunately it would be against Mike Tyson. Ready to become a staple in the boxing ring, Tyson was hungrier than ever in first ever shot at a heavyweight title for his career and would come aggressive looking for the knockdown. Initially, Trevor had overcome the first 90 seconds of the bout which Tyson was known for knocking fighters out in but suffered multiple combos from Mike as he barely escaped the first round.
8 seconds in the first round, Tyson would knockdown Trevor for the first time of the round with a strong right hand as a few seconds later the fight would end. Tyson would land a heavy body shot proceeding with a strong left hook as Berbick would just lose balance and that was all she wrote with Iron Mike achieving his crowning moment.
