Zhang is the rare goliath with genuinely sharp technique, not to mention deceptively fast hands. What he lacks are foot speed and, more critically, the ability to maintain his work rate through 12 rounds. I’m sure his conditioning is as on-point as it can be, but he’s still a 40-year-old man who weighs nearly 300 pounds.
You find out you’re not. You’re capable of going to jail, you’re capable of dying, you’re capable of being mistreated. I don’t really expect bad things to happen to me, but when they do happen to me, I understand it and am able to handle it. I’ve handled bad stuff before, that’s been my life. So I don’t trip over bad things. I know shit happens. When bad things happen, I will be still striving to do something. I won’t be discouraged.
But whoops! Zinad gets too brave and Bivol sits him down with a right hand as Zinad got caught square inside. Bivol steps in with a jab then a 2, 3 that floored Zinad. He seems OK though and he’s up and jabbing again. Zinad had an excellent round, and yet still got dropped. That probably doesn’t bode well for him.
Among Tyson’s more personal tattoos is the portrait of his ex-wife Monica Turner on his left forearm. This tattoo marks a chapter of his personal life that involved significant emotional investment and turmoil. Despite their eventual separation, the tattoo remains a permanent reminder of his past relationships and the personal struggles associated with them.
In 1981, at the age of 15, Tyson won the Junior Olympic Championship, showcasing his exceptional 135 boxing division skills. He continued to impress in subsequent fights, winning gold medals and gaining recognition as a rising star in the sport. Tyson’s signature “peek-a-boo” style, characterized by his defensive maneuvers and powerful counterattacks, made him a formidable opponent.
“I believed I was carrying all these guys,” he said. “I was mentioning all these guys’ names in the ring and I’m doing all this stuff and I better be able to carry my weight too. I’m carrying these guys on my back – Benny Leonard, Sugar Ray Robinson, Harry Greb, Mickey Walker, (Muhammad) Ali, (Joe) Louis. I can’t be mentioning these guys and throwing their names out like I know them if I’m not willing to sacrifice what they were willing to sacrifice and kick ass like they were willing to kick ass. No way.”
87. “It is not up to the painter to define the symbols. Otherwise, it would be better if he wrote them out in so many words! The public who look at the picture must interpret the symbols as they understand them.”
On July 9, 1997, Tyson’s boxing license was rescinded by the Nevada State Athletic Commission in a unanimous voice vote; he was also fined US$3 million and ordered to pay the legal costs of the hearing. As most state athletic commissions honor sanctions imposed by other states, this effectively made Tyson unable to box in the United States. The revocation was not permanent, as the commission voted 4–1 to restore Tyson’s boxing license on October 18, 1998.

“I’ll go into this life the same way I went into my boxing life, with everything I have,” he said. “Blood, sweat, spit, guts, and I will die for these people on stage just the way I would fighting in the ring with Buster (Douglas), Evander (Holyfield), and Lennox (Lewis). I will die for you. You don’t have to throw in the towel for me, I will die for you.”
But Warners could argue that the copyright isn’t valid, or that the studio changed the design just enough to escape infringement, or that the use in the film is “transformative,” meaning it is depicted in a larger context and thus a fair use, or that it’s a parody. Whitmill also is challenging the use of the image in ad materials and trailers.
Why did Mike Tyson get a face tattoo? Tyson talked about his decision to get a tattoo, citing a desire to assert his individuality and express himself artistically. For Tyson, a tattoo represents a form of self-expression and empowerment.
“The best sport stems from the greatest rivalries. And on June 1, I am confident Matchroom will reign supreme over Queensberry,” Hearn said in a press release. “… With the brilliant Dmitry Bivol challenging for the undisputed light-heavyweight championship, this is without doubt one of the best boxing cards of all-time.”
He told Fox Sports: “My first impression was that I’ve never had a tattoo in my life, but I thought we are fighting in a week and when you get a tattoo you can’t fight because they snap up and it wouldn’t be healthy to do that.
