Thought i would just post this taken from the Autobiography by Peter Heller on some background on the Tyson-Spinks fight. Full story behind the fight is on http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=265927 Chapter 13. Tyson-Spinks. The Making Of A Fight Tyson talked of retirement. He told Mike Marley of the New York post the day after the fight that it had definitely been his last appearnce in the ring. "Don King was laughing, but when he finds out im serious, he wont be laughing. I had fun, boxing was good to me, but nothing lasts forever, i decided its time to move on. Its time to call it a day, i dont like reading that my wife is a ***** and that my mother in law is a sneaky conniver. And then i read im an idiot. I know it goes with the territory, but its difficult". Tyson, of course, would fight again. It was all he knew. That night in Atlantic City, he had shown that he truly was invincible in the ring. But outside the squared circle, his familiar world was crumbling around him. End Chapter
