Okay, but before I get to all that, I just saw the Tyson knockout. That joint was pitiful. Mike actually hit the ropes, bounced back up, and got caught with another fist. It was like something out of Rocky. Michael King has a discusson about it.
It's just sad to me. As if the world's not in enough flux, there's not even a dominant name in the heavyweight division. At least before, even though we knew Tyson wasn't the same miraculously fast, hard puncher he was in 1986, there was always that back-of-the-mind thought that he could put somebody to sleep at any moment. This time, he was actually gunning for the KO in the first round and couldn't get it. Remember the guy on the SI cover?
