Did Cus D'Amato ever see Tyson as anything other than a fighter?

    No wonder Mitch Green called Tyson Michelle.... :lol:

    That would have been a sight indeed, Jacobs giving Tyson one. :rofl

    The way he hid his illness from everyone, including Mike, was kind of disturbing.

    All the kissing on the lips and the fact that Tyson never acknowledges Jacobs to me suggests some ****** business was going on.

    Gay lovers possibly?? Maybe the death of Jacobs was the real cause of Tyson's downfall??

    Sure, but it would have to be somewhat consensual on Tyson's part.
    From the age of 12 or even younger, Tyson was no "kid" to be molested. He was a big badaass mofo by then.

    Tyson was always a bit 'both ways'. He was attracted to Razor Ruddock's lips too, ffs. :lol:

    There is also, of course, the rumour that Jim Jacobs died of AIDS, rather than Leukemia.

    The source of that rumour was none other than the great Teddy Atlas.

    Ruddock put lips in fashion way before Angelina did.

    What do you base that on? It's a pretty big leap to go from Tyson never mentions Jacobs to some funny business was going on.

    Wasn't it Tyson who kissed Jacobs? Seemed quite jokey to me. Had it been a passionate full blooded French kiss I'd be a bit more suspicious...
