Freak!
The Nevada State Athletic Commission denied Mike Tyson a boxing license Tuesday, meaning he can't fight Lennox Lewis April 6 in Las Vegas.
Good! The man is a freak and seriously needs help. At the very least, he needs to attend anger management classes. One thing Tyson told the boad is ``I'm crazy but I'm not crazy like that. I don't want to kill or rape nobody or nothing like that.'' Now why don't I buy that? OK. Maybe he doesn't want to kill or rape anyone, but he's already done one and I wouldn't be even the tiniest bit surprised if he did the other.
Board member Amy Ayoub said her vote was in part to send a message to the children who looked up to the fighter. Good for her.
The fight probably would have brought a much-needed boost to the Las Vegas economy, which has been hit hard by decline in travel since Sept. 11. Good for the board who put integrity over money.
