Ohio State spiced up a preseason camp meeting Thursday with a visit from James "Buster" Douglas, the former heavyweight boxing champion of the world. 

A Columbus native, Douglas stunned the sports world in 1990 when he knocked out the heavily favored champ Mike Tyson in Tokyo. 

The Buckeyes will hope to hold onto their national championship title longer than Douglas, who lost to Evander Holyfield later in the same year he stunned the previously undefeated Tyson.
