On this day in Fistiana- Tyson wants 2 eat children, gets Savarese

On this day in Fistiana

Mike Tyson TKO 1 Lou Savarese
By Alex Pierpaoli


Thirteen years ago today, Mike Tyson launched himself at Lou Savarese and then at Showtime's Jim Gray, giving him the famous "i'm gonna eat his children" interview.

The fight itself was essentially over after the first leaping left hook Tyson landed. The next startling moment follows when Tyson continues throwing punches right over referee John Coyle who is halting the action too

On this day in Fistiana-- Kevin McBride stops Mike Tyson

Kevin McBride TKO6 Mike Tyson 
June 11, 2005


On this day in fistiana at the MCI Center in Washington, DC, the often self-defeating career of Iron Mike Tyson slammed headfirst into a wall named Kevin McBride; a guy whose size alone would have likely given Tyson some difficulty had they met in Tyson's prime. This being anything but Iron Mike's prime the result was quite sad and all credit to trainer and former fistic sensation Jeff Fenech who stopped the fight with Tyson on his stool when it seemed the former Kid Dynamite was thinking of fouling McBride to get out of the bout.
