        fight supposedly made something like 100 million from what I heard in beyond the glory, I'd imagine 50% went to the fighters so about 25mil each

          I heard it was like a 50/50 split with a conditionless pay out.

          So basically win/lose or draw they receive 40 million each. But maybe the loser got a little under this, so about 37 million.

          Something like that....

            I remember hearing that too, but I want an article stating exactly how much dough each one pulled in.

              Don't have a link, but I remember hearing in a few different places that it was approx 37 Million including the PPV cut he got.

                If Tyson would have only trained seriously, I think he could have possibly caught Lennox early with a big shot.

                  If Tyson had more guidance in his comeback he would have been something serious.

                    Mike should went back to Kevin Rooney in 1999 and then his career might have turned out a little differently.
