Title: Tyson out in 4
Post by: Nash on July 31, 2004, 12:50:20 AM
And with no future in boxing left ahead of him, and 38 million in debt...

Well, sucks to be Mike.

Sucks to be Mike's creditors.

There *may* be hope in some sort of reality TV career...

But I dunno....

Gonna be quite the slide.

The man never could box.  Proof of that came when Buster Douglas knocked him out.

Some people I know thought that was a fluke.  When the first fight with Holyfield was scheduled I predicted Tyson would lose that one also.

Holyfield made him look like a rank amateur.

I think his future lies in motivational speaking.

I bet some bookies made ALOT of money off of this one.  

I read an article were tyson was sleeping on the street and in homless shelters while catching meals in soup kitchens.

Hard to beleive rags to riches to rags for real.

how much did he get for taking that fall in the 4th?

could have been a good fight if both had showed up to fight it...

suggestion to improve boxing:

winner takes all - loser gets squat

Hhm... Not a bad idea...

I don't really think he took a dive, though...

"Tyson, who blew an estimated $300 million fortune, earned about $8 million for the 57th fight of a pro career that began 19 years ago. He could only keep $2 million of it, with the rest going to pay off some of the $38 million he owes to creditors, under a bankruptcy reorganization plan."

He really needed the fights that were going to come after this one. And he aint gonna get those now.

I predict he's gonna start dealing drugs and spend the rest of his life in and out of jail.

Tyson is an example of how blood-suckers took advantage of an ignorant (not stupid) boxer.
