Found this. But more info on what happened. Doesn’t look good.
Literally no connection with Tyson.

Woman can be nasty when they have had too much wine on a night out. A single punch and got out of the situation, probably hoping it blow over. Who knows if she was lying about her double vision etc a decent lawyer probably would have got him off. He will be out in the summer. he may return, boxers like Martin Murray came back from doing time.

Awful journalism putting Tyson in the headline. The didn’t mention AJ when Billy Joe was doing stupid things.

It’s dodgy because he’s heavy, I know women can burn your head out when going on pissed up. He’s backhanded her. Big mistake.

Lucky he didn’t kill her, not uncommon for people to die in street fights after being punched and falling backwards and cracking their head off a pavement, he’s a big lad and boxed at a decent level so would know how to punch properly. Soft sentence too.

Not as bad as some of you are making out. She was verbally abusive to him and pushed him twice so he cracked her once in self defence. She was probably a disrespectful big mouthed agressive bimbo.Usually one punch wouldn't cause injuries like that so he's been unlucky. Sentence is fair and he should be allowed back in boxing when he's out.

You can't really judge unless you were there, but a heavyweight boxer smacking a girl whatever the provocation isn't on. As it has been shown you go to jail and can have no complaints.
Nevertheless it really wouldn't surprise me if she was a crazy, screaming banshee who put herself in that situation.
Often girls act like that because they don't think the fella will do anything.

what about a push kick to the gut instead of a punch to the head, could that be the new way to go

Liam Harrison told me he hasn't had a street fight for years because of this kick. He just days "fornicate you" and does it! It lifts the average man off his feet.

Most decent boxers would be looking at jail for knocking out a fellas, you ain't gonna get away with doing that to a bird whatever she did.
Also, esp for heavyweights, they gotta be careful about killing men if they are handing out proper digs.

I've got a lot of time for that one championship some cracking fights and fighters on there
Jasmine parr's done a bit down Harrison's gym hasn't she?
Yes. I don’t go to Liam’s gym but he does pt’s over here on a Saturday morning so see him now and again. I didn’t even know who he was until I told a student Muay Thai fighter there was a local gym and a guy doing pt’s called Liam Harrison. It was like I’d said Mike Tyson was doing them at the local boxing club.
