    If I were to spar with Tyson, I wouldn't settle for any less than 1k a week. I'd probably even demand more if I could. :D

    lmao @ tyson sparing partners.... in the early stages it must have been hilarious to be behind the scenes

    im sure finding a sparing partner who wasnt scared of tyson was hilarious
    then why he got in the ring and got pulverized was pretty good to
