Happy Mike Tyson Day! Wait, you don't know what Mike Tyson Day is? It's kind of a long story, but the gist is that once a year I take on Mike Tyson in Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (Not the lame Mr. Dream version) to see if I can put Iron Mike on the canvas. As to why I do this, you'll have to watch the video to find out.

Before I embarked on my journey I thought it would be interesting to see how some of the other GameSpot staff fared when facing Mike for the first time in many, many years. To be fair, the guys had no warning this was coming and they only got one shot at the champ, so don't be too hard on them.

Well, what are you waiting for? Join me, Alex Navarro, Ryan Davis, Rich Gallup, Jason Ocampo, Brad Shoemaker, Tim Surette, and Dave Toister on my annual quest to defeat Iron Mike Tyson.

*I had a hard time matching up some of the video, but cut me some slack; I'm a writer, not James Cameron. :)
