Let me try and understand this. We pay Tyson millions of dollars to go into the ring and act like a total animal and knock his opponent out senseless. And some people have a problem that he can't turn it off when he leaves the ring?
I don't much care for boxing. It seems pretty stupid to me that in 2002 we are still paying people to risk almost certain injury for public entertainment . It reminds me of the Coliseum of ancient Rome, which we now think of as Barbaric. How long before boxing falls into same category?
I say if you want an animal in the ring, then you got one with Tyson. If you want the public spectable, then put him back in the ring. Otherwise just do away with boxing altogether.
