Let's Not Forget the REALLY Funny Part...
...Finkel and Tyson wound up with Williams because they were too cheap to pay McBride decent money. I wonder how many lost millions that short-term savings of $100,000 translates to?

VERY good point.........never a truer word spoken....
I was thinking the same thing....
If I had been in charge of Tyson I would have got him fighting the likes of McBride every 6 weeks for 6 months or so, even low key cards, back to how he started off.
Let him put together 6/7 early ko's, build confidence, stay in the gym e.t.c then move up a gear.
I guess it shows the management weren't at all confident of keeping him in the gym and on the straight and narrow.

True, but they did see Williams as a walkover.Goz wrote:I was thinking the same thing....
