possible truth: because he is a washed up insane dude.

Also very true, but i still love Tyson, as old and washed up as he his, i still love 'em.

As a Memphian, I would be disapointied if the fight was called off.

According to ESPN.com it has already been called off...


"After waiting for days for Tyson to give them some sort of signal on his willingness to fight, Tyson's handlers finally pulled the plug on the scheduled Saturday fight after the fighter missed a flight to Memphis for the second day in a row.


The official word was that Tyson was too sick to fight. But even before he became ill on Friday, Tyson had left his trainer waiting for him at the gym for three straight days and had gotten a large tattoo on the left side of his face.


Tyson's manager, Shelly Finkel, still held out hope earlier Monday that Tyson would get on a plane to Memphis, but after Tyson missed the plane for a second day in a row he and the Showtime cable network had little choice but to cancel the fight."
