It's definitely the end of a crazy era for Mike Tyson. I am a big boxing fan and have been watching him since beginning. I even saw him fight two times in Atlantic City years back. He ran out of gas and got pummeled by a no name. He is 38 years old. The same thing happened to Ali. His comeback at 38, he got pummeled two fights in a row, and finally realized he had to quit. Now at age 38, not having fought in 17 months, Tyson hit reality. It's too bad he has so much debt, that he will continue to fight. He's not a contender anymore though, and will have to take those low paying budget fights. I personally think he would have been the greatest of all time if he hadn't had so many psychological problems and gotten into so much trouble that basically ruined his career. Tyosn will keep fighting, but this was his last shot at big money, and becoming a contender. I knew he was washed up but I never knew he was this washed up to lose to an overweight chump from England.
