Help out Mike Tyson and get a free signed glove

Mike has been in touch with my co-promoter to source a photo, taken of him walking to the ring with Cus D'Amato prior to his professional debut against Hector Mercedes.

If anyone can source the photo or find a link, Mike would be very grateful.

We will also send you a signed Mike Tyson glove. :good

 

Could get one of ebay for 5 quid.

 

What, the photo or the glove?

Either way, it's a nice gesture. I don't know of the pic Longcount, your avi is **** hot though :yep

 

My guess is you'll get much more respect from people on here LC in relation to this. People may not find the photo, but you wont get absolute idiots like you've found on other forums.

 

Cheers Paddy - that guy in Classic is a ****ing idiot, and I did make the mistake of emailing the link to Mike's assistant Darryl. I'm hoping someone edits it out.

Bad Dog, do you mean the photo is available on ebay?

 

Yeah. Obviously not the original though.

 

It doesn't matter if it's original or not. He was given a copy by a fan (he'd never owned one before), loved it, but lost it when packing up at the hotel.

Have you got a link?

 

Mate I would love to get that glove to add to my collection, but I'll be honest I cant recall ever seeing that shot before and I've checked all the obscuro memorabilia sites I use and they dont have it either

Cant check Ebay at work though, might be on there

 

Got his glove already but ill have a look about for you buddy

Closest I can find is the ringwalk for tyson berbick:

Thanks for looking guys!

The Mike Tyson photo is from a book called "Knockout: The Art of Boxing" by a New York based sports photographer called Ken Regan.

I have contacted Ken to get a copy and his details are:

Ken Regan
Camera 5
6 West 20th Street
8th Floor
New York
NY 10011

 

Good book that :good

 

Have you got it mate?

Can you confirm that the pic is taken from the back? All I have is a description from Mike.

 

Nah my mate has.........I can find out, bear with me :good

 

cheers
