The decimal on the Tyson fight normally isn't given to you, but by frame-counting afterwards, it's possible to determine what it is. The world record was 2:00.97 for over 3 years, despite many thousands of attempts to lower it. In that time, I had 3 additional 2:00s, one of which was another .97 and two of which were .99s. After I finished this fight, I wasn't getting my hopes up because I couldn't tell if it was under 2:00.97. However, at 3:21 in this video, you can see my reaction once I realized it was definitely fast enough.
This took something like 20,000+ attempts since my last Tyson world record. I'm extremely proud of this time, but am looking to take it to 1:59 in the future. The timeloss in this fight was entirely because of a slow phase 3 pattern - with better luck towards the end, this fight could have been as low as 1:59.25.
