    Why do so many people say the Tyson-Seldon fight was fixed?

    Sure im used to alot of morons crying fix for all of Tysons post prison wins, but by far ive heard it the most with Seldon. And I dont mean they say they suspected it, ive heard so many people state it as fact. was there information that came out that im missing?

    I don’t know I doubt many of them were fixes its not like WWF lol, from what I remember Tyson hit Seldon with a glancing blow onto of the head which was probably what hurt him, some times glancing blows can have more effect than what they actually look like.

      I don't think it was fixed.

      I think Seldon was literally so afraid of Tyson that he was basically looking for any way out he could get, he took a glancing blow (that didn't seem all that powerful), and dropped to the canvas.

      I don't think he ever wanted to be in the ring with Mike that night, or any other night for that matter.

        It was not the only time Seldon quit after being hit.

          Hard to stop people from saying that when it looked like Seldon got knocked out by the wind of Tyson's punch.

            It was the true phantom punch.
