Im a HUGE boxing fan ..and the story of Mike Tyson is one of the sadest in pro boxing history. From beginning to end, its been a crazy ride for Iron Mike.
Cus Demato had him in line..once he died, Mike fell over to Don King and it was all she wrote. The rape conviction was completely bogus. I don't know one person that actually knows the case that believes Mike Tyson raped that women.
Tyson though has done a lot of stupid things throughout his career and life.. and his career is all but over. Unfortunetly, he will probably keep fighting because he needs money.
Also, Capt. ... Tyson actually has a very solid chin. During his whole career..his style and size has forced him to take some savage blows to the head.. I remember the 1st Frank Bruno fight..Tyson got hit so hard to the head I cringed...yet Tyson just kept coming. Against Lennox Lewis, he took some big blows before finally getting dropped.
Let's not forget 3 big things about tonight...
1. 18 month lay off between fights.
2. 33 lb. weight advantage for Williams.
3. And most importantly..this is 38 year old Mike Tyson, not 22 year old Tyson.
