Comments Thread For: Team Holyfield: Mike Tyson Rejected $25 Million Guarantee For Trilogy

[Liondw]

It's crazy to reject $25m. Tyson could do with some of that money, and he didn't get that much money from the successful exhibition with Roy Jones. Boxing wise, Holyfield always had Tyson's number. Mike was losing the rematch before the ear biting.

Where have I heard this before, B-side offering 25m or 50m when they themselves have never earned that, or when the guys they offering those terms to can make more.

I hate the A side B side talk, but Mike Tyson is in a unique category where he could probably make more than that and sell out a stadium boxing me

The whole idea is ridiculous, only the idiots waste such time on here with this matter .

Tyson just want to have an easy sparring session no more and poor Holyfield needs this to get his life back on track after bad business deals, spousal support and 157 kids.

I gotta believe there’s a little bit more to this story

He knows...

Holyfield team sounds like they are feeling themselves too much. For one, they are in no position to be making any offers. They should pretty much sit tight and wait on offers from Team Tyson afterall he's the one who has some relevance especially in light of his last exhibition. Holy really trying to get a get out of financial trouble jail card with this fight. They are the one doing all the yapping (more like begging) with basically nothing to stand on.

Without Tyson these type of fight won't sell. There is probably an easier list for Tyson for the same money. Don't think that Tyson is looking to go life and death in an exhibition fight.

So Holyfield couldn't fight for $25,000,000 in his hey day but can suddenly guarantee that as a 60 year old?
