It's a mismatch to begin with. It's like a Feroza slamming to a Ford Expedition.

But take note that Tyson earned $5 million on this fight, while his opponent McBride earned only a measly $150,000.

Tyson has become a Luisito Espinosa. Fighting to earn a living and payoff his huge debts.

si luisito espinosa din malaki ang debt?

Nakaka dismaya din ang reason ni Mike to fight... debt...

"Tyson was paid $5 million for the fight, which was on the low end of purses he has made in his career. After his creditors got $2 million, the IRS got its cut and his ex-wife got $750,000, so there wasn't much left for the fighter.

Tyson still owes nearly $40 million and there were plans for him to fight up to seven times to pay off the debt. But those plans didn't include Tyson taking the kind of beating that McBride was beginning to administer to him in the fifth and sixth rounds."

I'm suprised you even stayed to watch the whole thing knowing this is a "Fight-to-Debt" match.

Yup. Luisito Espinosa is on the same "Fight-to-Debt" job in the U.S., he is staying in the U.S. as a professional boxer. If he quits boxing, he will be sent back to Pinas. Poor fella, he has become a punching bag of up and coming young boxers.

Kawawa rin itong si Mike Tyson, halos lahat ng kita niya dati napunta doon sa demonyong manloloko na si Don King.

Tyson lack the passion for the game. The flesh is willing but the mind is weak. That may very well spell the difference. By the way, Tyson was leading the scores 2 to 1 in the judges score cards meaning if he was able to continue the fight it would have been a different story. Well, Tyson is a shot fighter now and I think he made a bet on himself to lose that fight.

Cotto vs. Abdulayev fight was a great fight and also our very own 18 yr old prodigy Rey "boom-boom" Bautista vs. Mexican's Gilberto Bolanos. I was kinda dissapointed with the Draw decision between Kid Diamond vs. Casamayor.
