      And from my understanding once you get popped for something & a commission suspends you ALL states will back the first state up. So I tend to doubt any other state will be willing to eff with this fight.
      The fight was originally scheduled for April 6, 2002 in Las Vegas. However, Nevada refused to grant Tyson a license after a press conference brawl between Lewis and Tyson (see below). Several other states refused Tyson a license before Memphis finally bid US$12 million in order to host the fight.
      Texas would pick up the fight in a heartbeat.

        no, there would be no fight to pick up. What are you guys even thinking?? Golovkin's camp wouldn't stand for that.

            If the suspension holds they shouldn't have the fight at all. Or at least it should be rescheduled.

                  Just looked this up cuz I didn't know wtf you were talking about, but yea it looks like Tyson was suspended from NV at that time. It was some silly sh^t doe. They suspended him for that "eat your children, all praise to Allah" sh^t lol.

                  I'd argue that was NV overstepping their job, but its for sure a debatable thing on if he shoulda been suspended over some f#cking words.

                  I just know I've never heard of a guy being suspended for a legit PED situation or other legit issue & being able to fight in the US.

                  And randomly now that I think of it I think Margarito mighta gotten banned for that handwrap sh^t & fought in Mexico before his suspension was up, but not 100% on that.

                    Good point. Would GGG even want the fight at a new venue if it was sanctioned? From his comments my assumption is no.
