I don't want to say I watched it for Tyson, but he is the one who initially drew me the cards. He was a good ambassador in that respect. Oh well, hope the cards still get put on, I'm interested in following Sammy Vasquez
No more Iron Mike Productions?

I didn't know it was 50%, much higher than I expected.They cut him in for 50 percent equity stake in return for his name and celebrity status to help promote..so it was his company.
If I had to guess, I'm thinking Mike had a melt down of some kind that violated a conduct clause in his contract forcing his partner to void their deal.Comment

That's what I'm thinking. Jonas went through an extensive vetting process before he signed on with Mike, following him around during his tour. Really sucks because it looked like Mike found a successful niche. He looked good at and happy doing it. Coming from where his life was at towards the end of his boxing career, it looked like he beat his demons finally.They cut him in for 50 percent equity stake in return for his name and celebrity status to help promote..so it was his company.

I know he was just a figure head, but being associated with Tyson likely opened up doors. It could've played a part in them getting airtime on ESPN & it also got viewers to pay attention. Not sure about someone like Ivegen Khytron who signed up with the company due to Tyson. Seems like he could have a right to break that contract now.Comment
