Boxing is banned in my country and for Tyson - Lewis we had multiple pre-fight hype shows and a bunch of documentaries and films on Tyson.

When Pacquiao fights, we get like 50 words on the last page of the paper.

Lewis Tyson set some kind of PPV record, and that includes internationally. The thing was huge.

No one here even knows who Haye is. Guarantee walk down the street and 7 out of 10 people don't know Klitschko except for the Hayden dating, and 10 out of 10 don't know Haye.

NEW YORK [AP] -- The Lennox Lewis-Mike Tyson heavyweight title fight was the highest-grossing pay-per-view event in history.

HBO said Tuesday that its joint venture with Showtime had grossed $103 million on 1.8 million buys, $3 million more than the previous high, the second bout between Tyson and Evander Holyfield.

"This exceeded even our expectations. This was a night that truly lifted the sport,'' said Mark Taffett, senior vice president for HBO Sports. Taffett would not say what those expectations were, but reports put it in the $100 million area.

Lewis dominated the fight Saturday night and knocked out Tyson in the eighth round.
