I didn't think so at first but the second and third time that I saw the footage it looked like it was staged.  Did you see the first punch that Tyson threw?  Are you telling me that he couldn't hit that guy who was standing still two feet away?

Some 70 year-old boxing official was knocked unconcious apparently.  I don't know if that tells me that it was real or if the staged fight didn't go as well as planned.  Who knows.  All I know is that I have no intentions of paying to see that fight.

you can take the boy out of the street but you can't take the street out of the boy

he's a thug, a thug that can box but still a thug

used to really enjoy his 45 sec ppv events when he was young and hungry, now he's just another athletics nutcase....

Too bad Lewis threw the first punch- does that make Tyson's punch back justified?

It definitely could.

It was staged..Reminded me of the wrestling scene from "Man On The Moon" with Jim Carrey...The press eats it up while all the participants laugh it up...$$$

Boxing is horrible anymore.. its on its way to the WWF.


People love drama, promoters know that and they get rich off of it.

What?  Tyson threw the first punch, he missed Lewis' bodyguard.

Definitely fake.  Tyson obviously pulled his first punch.

Whether it is real or not, there is one thing that we can all agree on, using the proper technical term, Mike Tyson is NUTS.  Simple as that.

Tyson came into the room. Lewis was on the stand. The whole entourage for both of them cluttered the room like pirrhanas on a dead cow.. What I saw was Tyson walking up to Lewis. THey were talking trash, I saw Lewis reach over his bodyguard and deliver a right jab to Tyson's shoulder. After that, Tyson threw a punch that landed no where near Lewis.

After that it became a quick scuffle and was broken up.

I was especially entertained by the Hell's Angel guy there.

Anyone know anything about the connection of Hells Angels and Tyson?

When Tyson was in denmark for the Brian Nielsen fight Hells Angels was there too...

I used to pull for iron Mike back when he had that old man trainer that kept him straight. It's sad the direction in life he chose. He could have possibly been remembered as a great Modern boxer (if not knock out king). Do you all remember how invincible it seemed he was in the late eighties? It was a given that he was gonna knock the other guy out, just whether or not it'd be the first round or two. He threw it all away.

He is an ex-convict, who is under investigation for rape, right now.  Why would you even discuss him.
