    Remember how gassed Holy was? He looked at Brooks with the look of defeat on his face. Brooks inspirational words carried Holy through. Go to the well you got this, said Brooks, and Holy snapped back to fight mode. Would have been interesting to see Tyson carry out that second fight because both guys were in tremendous shape and Tyson had a corner which could at least provide some answers.

    Yeah I hated that Mike did what he did in fight two, we were all cheated there.. Its sucks because he seemed to be doing some good work in round #3 of fight #2 before he flipped his damn lid! Who knows what may have happened..

    Tyson looked in better shape for the second fight. He also wore his old white towel to the ring instead of the newer black one and shaved his goatee as well. Who knows how this fight ends up but Tyson was definitely starting to warm up and turning the tide.
