    Not the most skilled fighters obviously but the first round was Hagler/Hearns all over again. What a battle! Both guys nailing eachother with bombs! Check it out:

    Unfortunately only this first round was posted on Youtube. Although we have a boxing videos section on this board, maybe you could try there. If not, somebody will have to upload it.

    btw, has the truth about Tyson-Ettiene ever been unearthed?.....i still don't buy that as a genuine stoppage.....it was more reminiscent of when Tyson 'hit' shawn michaels

    Tyson hit Clifford flush.... the only "controversy" was whether or not Ettienne was able to get up.

    That was a crappy fight like most of Tyson's crappy fights. Another case of Tyson robbing the public of their money with an opponent who fell down for him and right after, is high-fiving his corner with a big smile on his face like he just scored a lottery win.
    It's even funnier when they boo at the end and pelt him with debris upon his exit at the end of Danny Williams and Kevin McBride.
    Notice Tyson's last professional fight after losing to McBride as he's heading for the exit with his team and gets hit in the head with a beer and gives the middle finger to the fans?
    Tyson's way of saying 'GoodBye' and 'Thanks' to the fans after his career was finally over. :lol: Quite an exit it was. Quite fitting too. Then that crappy World Tour BS he pulled fighting that grossly out of shape Sanders in an exhibition. Jeez that was bad! :doh:
    Tyson would've been better off never returning to boxing after prison. If he just stayed away, he'd have gone out in a much better light rather than this demented sick monster he's made out to be today. Sad story really.

    Etienne knew the outcome long before the fight began. Throw some hailmarys with eyes closed, hope for the best, find a soft spot for landing and cash in!
    Danny Williams could've done the same thing if he wanted to.

    Etienne's fight with Clay-Bey was a good one too. Brewster's been involved in some of the better HW fights in recent memory, especially the Liakhovich fight.

    Clifford said "the hell with it, I'll stay down and collect my paycheck". He might've been more believable if he hadn't taken out his mouthpiece and THEN acted like he was out cold.

    Even though Brewster isn't a KO artist he could still punch. It's surprising Etienne could go the distance in a fight where he was actually getting it.

    How long before Cliff gets out and can make a comeback and save the division?

    Tyson "froze" him. It was probably 125 years worth.

    Someone needs to pull some strings to get him or Ibeabuchi transferred...it could be the next installment of Undisputed.

    LOL. You're right, they committed the same crimes but I don't think the Armed Robber wins like in the movie :lol:
