    Memphis Tyson was addicted to prescription anti-depressants, alcohol, cocaine & cannabis. Tyson also weighed a career highest 239lbs he had never weighed more than 223 in any other pro fight. Both Lewis and his trainer Emmanuel Stewart knew of Tyson's drug addiction and weight gain before agreeing to fight. Memphis hosted the fight only because no other US state would due to Tyson failing a drug test.

    Frazier was past his prime, half blind, and an arthritic shoulder. Tyson was shot mentally and physically. Frazier KO 8ish.

    Funny cause before l started reading the thread my first thought was Frazier wins either by decision or late Tko. Then as l read the thread l discover l picked Tyson. What was l thinking. Lol.

    That had nothing to do with stamina considering he barely he even hit him back.
