Not buying it. Lennox won't accept a peanut percentage. I think Tyson is using Lennox name and will end up picking Golota or Toney.

He was in under par shape by his standards but really? Mike Tyson has never really stepped inside the ring in bad shape 'Condition wise'.Just saw this on TMZ...should be an interesting exhibition. Tyson was in horrible shape for the first and said he didn't know how he'd get past the first round because he was gassed. Now they are both more or less on a similar level albeit Lewis still has the size advantage.
Technically he has been way off, but condition wise 'He has always been in condition'.
I would say against Lennox Lewis and Brain Neilson sp* fights were his worse conditions.
To withstand the heavy bombardment from Lennox Lewis for so long, and fight back when he could 'He had to be in some sort of condition'.
But yes, I believe that training camp for Lewis was all over the place.

Tyson didn't have much motivation by that time. He would receive very little of his purse because it pretty much went to his creditors at that point which is why he backed out of the rematch (it was a two fight deal). He did it for the money which he knew he'd never really get and was deep in depression. He said in an interview that he was so tired after the first round he didn't know what he would do.
