December 9, 200421 yr Mike Tyson arrested in car damage incident Republic staff and wire reports Dec. 8, 2004 07:05 PM SCOTTSDALE - Former heavyweight boxing champ Mike Tyson has been arrested in Scottsdale on suspicion of misdemeanor criminal damage after allegedly jumping on the hood of a car outside a nightclub. Tyson moved to Scottsdale earlier this year. He appeared with attorneys at the city's police station Tuesday afternoon and was released after being given a citation. Scottsdale police say Tyson likely will make an initial court appearance in the case within ten days. advertisement On Nov. 27 Tyson allegedly jumped on hood of someone's car at about 12:45 a.m. at the Pussycat Lounge in Scottsdale, said Officer Sam Bailey of the Scottsdale Police Department. Tyson's jump left a dent on the car, and the car's owner filed a report at about 3 p.m. later that day, Bailey said. Tyson, who has been living and training in the Valley, was recently in rehab after undergoing knee surgery for an injury he suffered during his July 30 loss to Danny Williams. link
December 9, 200421 yr Tyson is done as a legitimate heavyweight contender. If he needs the money badly, he could still fight (and knock out) mediocre guys and still make money since people still pay to watch him do something crazy. sadly, the division is so weak, his power still gives him a chance against most guys, which means he's not going to retire any time soon.
December 9, 200421 yr I'm a big boxing fan.. been an Executioner fan my whole life. ...but Tyson is/was overrated.
