 *A snarling Tyson entered the ring to "Eye of the Tiger".
 == Bout Summary ==
 Mike Tyson pressured Green throughout, delivered some smashing blows to the head and body, and won a unanimous decision at Madison Square Garden. Tyson three times knocked out Green's mouthpiece and shook him with short, devastating punches to the head and roadhouse punches to the body. But Green would not go down and several times fought back with flurries as Tyson left himself open. While there were moments of excitement, the fight before a crowd of 6,529 was marked by a lot of clinching and, in the late rounds, there were choruses of boos. Tyson never had Green in danger except once in the early rounds when he doubled Green up with two right hands to the body. In the third, a left hook knocked Green's mouthpiece out of the ring and then in the fourth another left hook by Tyson not only knocked out Green's mouthpiece but also knocked out a section of bridge work Green was wearing and sent in flying several feet to the ring apron.

	This was not the last time "Iron" Mike and "Blood" Green would meet. In the early morning hours of August 23, 1988, Mike Tyson stopped by Dapper Dans, a Harlem clothing store frequented by a clientele from rap stars to pimps. Tyson was there to pick up a custom-made jacket. Mitch Green happened to be in the area and an argument ensued, in which Green threw a punch and Tyson responded with a straight right landing on the bridge of Green's nose, requiring five stitches. Although Tyson won this second bout, he suffered more in the long run as the bare knuckle punch resulted in a fracture to Tyson's hand causing a postponement of his scheduled first fight with [[Frank Bruno]].

	*A snarling Tyson came to the center of the ring literally foaming from the mouth. The ever cocky Green, he always came to the ring sporting a toothpick in the corner of his mouth, barraged Tyson with insults. The action during the bout proved to be anti-climatic with Tyson always moving forward, but getting repeatedly tied up by the 6'5" Green. Tyson's most effective display of offense came in the third round when he landed a blow to Green's jaw with force sufficient enough to dislodge a section of bridge work and send it flying several feet to the ring apron. Through it all, "Blood" Green managed to survive the ten rounds, with Tyson the clear winner.		*A snarling Tyson came to the center of the ring literally foaming from the mouth.
