    I was watching the promo event to the Tyson vs Lewis fight where all hell broke loose. Tyson threw a punch that was a deliberate air swing aimed at creating a stink but not intended to land. Do you think this was premeditated by the promoters? Was the whole event and controversy a set up to promote the fight? I think so

    I think he was drunk and was trying to actually hurt Lewis...

    Of course it matter because there has been a plethora of manufactured conflicts at press conference - pushing and shoving and it appears as though the fighters agree before hand what they are going to do - no harm really but it is WWE type threatric hype

    No way the promoters planned it.
    It was all Tyson being Tyson.

    I reckon he deliberately meant to miss cause he missed by a mile.

    I think Tyson planned to make some noise at the presser

    It doesn't. All about the fight and those punches were real and that is all that matters.

    He has been involved with wrestling, he played the part of referee and ended up "knocking out" one of the wrestlers with a fake punch.

    "I'll **** you till you love me, ******"

    Brilliant quote, but Tyson lost it that day, I think he was scared.

    I think the bite mark on Lewis' leg proves that was not staged.
