What does Buster Douglas have in common with a hoverboard?

For fear that Mike Tyson will read this story, we’re not going to finish that joke. Let’s just say ‘Iron’ Mike struggled a little bit with both.

The former heavyweight champion is the latest victim of those damn hoverboards that have sent more people to their arses at Christmas time than the icy footpaths of 2009.

Tyson posted a video to Instagram of his attempts to get to grips with the deathtrap when he was thrown to his back and we feel sorry for the device that we presume was duly sent through the ceiling with one of Tyson’s famous uppercuts shortly after the recording.
