Mike Yet To Earn His Stripes
Illawarra Mercury
Friday September 29, 2006
WHEN is someone going to make the Mike Tyson vs Tiger match-up happen? It's starting to look like never. After being pummeled and eventually knocked senseless by Lennox Lewis back in Memphis in 2002, Tyson - swimming in a sea of debt - declared he would get in a cage with a Tiger if someone paid him enough. But there's been nothing on the feline front since then for Mike, who's now been reduced to a Las Vegas sideshow attraction. Surely there's some eccentric billionaire out there who could come up with a figure to entice Mike to take his best shot at a tiger? The worldwide pay-per-view audience would be enormous.
