| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00  | COPENHAGEN -- Mike Tyson believes he has even more motivation to beat Brian Nielsen. Tyson is enraged at Nielsen for allegedly calling him a "monkey man" during a news conference held on Sunday in Copenhagen. The two are scheduled to fight on Saturday night. At the time, no one from Tyson's camp understood what Nielsen had said, but some Danish officials later informed the Tyson camp of the meaning of Nielsen's words. Four Danish translators reviewed the audiotape of the news conference -- and confirmed Nielsen's statement. "It is pathetic to see such ignorance in this day and age," Tyson said in a prepared statement issued at nearly 1 a.m. Copenhagen time on Friday morning. "This will make me punish him even more than I had planned." At the weigh-in on Thursday afternoon, Tyson's co-trainer, Stacey McKinley, was seen yelling at Nielsen. Later, it was learned, Tyson bodyguard Anthony Pitts had questioned public relations workers connected with the promotion about why they had not translated what Nielsen had said about Tyson at the time. He was told they didn't speak Danish and had no idea what Nielsen had said, the Boston Globe reported. Late Thursday night, Robert Mittleman, who represents Nielsen, refused to confirm the remark but claimed if his fighter did make such a statement, it was directed at some of Tyson's followers, who apparently had been mocking Nielsen not only at that news conference, but during nearly every encounter between the camps, the Globe reported. "If the alleged statement is accurate, and I am in no way acknowledging that it is, I do not believe it was directed at Tyson," Mittleman told the Boston Globe. "Mike has been a complete gentleman at all times and in all dealings with both Brian and the fight promotion. If anything, Brian may have been reacting to the incessant insults aimed at him by members of Tyson's camp before and during the press conference."  | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Could you have done any worse thing than intentionally pissing Tyson off. He probably is the most unstable, mentally imbalanced boxer ever. Some of Tyson's hits: -Biting the ear off of Holyfield. -The zoloft comment Anthony loves to play. -Also one I remember is back when he was the champ he was fighting someone and he knocked him out and the guy was falling backwards and Tyson tried to hit him with an uppercut on the way down and he said in the press conference that he wanted to shove the guys nose brone into his brain. This guy is an f'n lunatic. Go ahead Neilsen, just go all the way, make fun of his voice, his mother. Go for it all. You will be in a hospital on Sunday morning anyway. | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Feb. 01 | I saw on ESPN last night that Tyson is up to 237 pounds, the heavest of his fighting career. I got say he looks like a brick S-house and this Neilsen guy is in for a long night as long as Iron Mike doesn't lose it again
