Boxing Notebook: Tyson Is Back
Boxing Notebook: Tyson Is Back By WagerWeb.com and Ecobika Sports Betting If the title made you jump into this article, you are not alone. Mike Tyson is the most recognized boxer around the world, and still the most feared. Watching him in action is like Chemistry 101: you never know what’s going to explode. Unfortunately, Tyson imploded inside and outside the ring, costing him his fortune, and is now reduced to a circus act in Vegas working out in public for change. On Oct. 20 at the Chevrolet Center in Youngstown, Ohio, the former heavyweight champion of the world begins a "Four Round Exhibition World Tour" to help him pay his debts and possibly show the world he’s a changed man. So why has the former baddest man on the planet decided to take part in four round exhibition bouts after being out of the ring for so long? How much Tyson is expected to make on his world tour isn't clear, but I’m sure his creditors are just happy to collect some more change. As for Tyson, it sounds like he’s taking this seriously: "I'm truly nervous. I haven't done this for a while. The first leg of "Mike Tyson's World Tour" in Youngstown will be broadcast live in North America on cable and satellite pay-per-view beginning at 10:30 p.m. ET. The event is being produced and distributed for pay-per-view by Queensbury Media and Integrated Sports and will be available in more than 50 million homes in North America via iN Demand, DirecTV & Dish Network in the U.S. and Viewer's Choice & Bell ExpressVu in Canada. The suggested retail price for the PPV telecast is .95.

The WBC believes that at this moment there can not be a more interesting heavyweight fight than this rematch. There is a huge public demand for this rematch, and it will be very good for the promoters, as well as the prestige and the importance of boxing in the world.
