MIKE TAKES FLIGHT

April 14, 2006 -- MIKE Tyson has bolted a posh Arizona drug-rehab center after only five days of treatment for cocaine abuse. The troubled ex-champ, 39, decided to check into the $4,000-a-night Meadows clinic in Phoenix for 30 days after being inspired by a recent trip to Chairman Mao's tomb in China. Tyson sought treatment for drugs and "rage therapy," reports The London Mirror. In 2004, Page Six broke the story about Tyson's spiraling into depression and cocaine abuse. Our scoop caused Tyson manager Shelly Finkel to issue a statement denying the batty boxer was using drugs. We're told Tyson is currently holed up at a Vegas hotel.

"what a turd?" Tyson was great for boxing. I dont blame him for fighting for big money. I think that any of us would fight for 4 or 5 mil. I think that Tyson does deserve a couple of pay checks. Dont be a hater.

Tyson has more class than the head of your gym. Stward just rides whatever fghter is popular and licks their ass. When they lose he comes out with bullshit excuses.

Thats not all he does either.

its funny that Mike hasn't won a fight in like 3 years or something, and is pretty much retired and yet he is still the biggest name in boxing, the press follow his every move.

shows how much the HW division needs a good cleaning out

For YOUR information I have met Tyson on three ocassions in person. My brother has met him on two seperate ocassions.

I am better placed to coment on him than you are.

im sure you are well informed having met him three times, but alot of people (especially in the sport of boxing) are completely different in conversation to their actual personality. Don king is famous for being a very charming man who could make any1 feel worth his time and likethey were always welcome and appreciated, but when he had something 2 gain he changes completely.

Well I was merly talking to Predator, I might not of met Tyson 3 times as you but I met him once at a fan signing before his fight with Ruddock and he treated me and the other fans like kings.

$4000 per night X 30 nights = $120,000. Considering those prices it's no wonder he done a runner
