WHEN THE ODDS ARE AGAINST YOU...BET ON YOU!

Whiskey Business had the rare pleasure of having James “Buster” Douglas on the podcast. The former undisputed heavyweight champ of the world has entered a “new ring” of sorts with a new bourbon bearing his name: Buster Douglas’ 42-1, which were the odds against him when he shocked the world 30 years ago by defeating Mike Tyson for the heavyweight championship of the world. Dino and the boys talk about how the whiskey came to be-a silver award winner by the way in the 2020 San Francisco World Spirits Competition- and of course about those odds and that legendary fight. Buster gets candid, talking about his career, his family, the night he beat Tyson and where he was emotionally when he lost to Evander Holyfield. It’s an amazing conversation with a very humble man and STILL a champion in so many ways.
