: .. not to mention did you hear the slew of racial and homophobic comments he let loose on the reporters after the "incident" ??
: Notice how there isn't alot of coverage about him calling a white reporter "his little hoe" and "I'll fuck you like a little bitch" ??
: Now if it had been John Rocker?!?!?!?1

Oh I agree. He really has no place in boxing, however the boxing world made the man; not his tendencies. What I mean is they made him into the star boxer he supposedly is. He draws money; lots of it. A person can not ignore that.
There is going to be a city somewhere that will allow this fight to happen. That city is going to cash in big time, and now because of the commission, that city won't be Vegas.
Don't get me wrong, I don't think Tyson should be boxing at all, I believe that he should be ina straightjacket taking it up the ass from a rhino. What I am saying though is that the fight is going to happen anyways so why not allow it in Vegas?
They could have atleast given him a temporary lift and pending his actions up to, at and after the fight decided on the issue, that way Vegas still would have gottent he income that the fight would generate.....
