      Mike Tyson’s scariest ring entrance ever STILL has fans and other fighters fearful 21 years later

      by

      MIKE Tyson has left fans quivering in their boots again – 21 years after embarking on boxing’s most terrifying ring-walk ever.
      In 1999, Iron Mike took on South Africa’s Francois Botha at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

      Not only was it Tyson’s return to the ring after biting a chunk out of Evander Holyfield’s ear – it was a return to the very same arena.
      That alone would be enough to create a tense, chilling atmosphere.
      But add in Tyson’s ring-walk and fans have been left running scared watching it back ever since… all of 21 years.
      The American boxer powerfully strode to the ring to the sound of DMX’s “Intro – It’s Dark And Hell Is Hot” looking terrifyingly determined, to a mixed chorus of cheers and boos.

      The video has racked up nearly three million views and has enjoyed a huge influx of hits lately as fans look to fill the void with no live sport to follow.
      SCARIEST EVER
      And one viewer commented: “If I was Botha I would have just took my gloves off, left them in the ring, and got the next flight back to South Africa.”
      Another said: “Never seen a more intimidating fighter of all combats sport combined in 25 years than Tyson. He’s a myth.”
      A third joked: “He could walk out to the song ‘row, row, row your boat’ and it would scare people.”

      Tyson went on to win the fight, via a fifth-round KO – but he later admitted he wasn’t at his best.

      Mike Tyson’s ring-walk in 1999 is arguably the scariest of all time

      After the fight, he claimed: “I’m a little embarrassed. I wanted to shine tonight. It takes time. It takes time.
      “Rome wasn’t built in a day… I’ve got to improve a lot more. I’ve got a long way to go.
      “I wasn’t worried. I knew I was going to knock him out. It was just a matter of time.”

      Is Mike Tyson’s historic fight with Roy Jones Jnr the most sensational and controversial comeback in boxing history?

      by

      WITH raw punching power that sent dazed opponents crumbling to the canvas, the self-declared “baddest man on the planet” was the youngest heavyweight champion of the world.
      Now 14 years since hanging up his gloves, Mike Tyson, 54, is stepping back into the ring — but is not allowed to knock his challenger out.

      Tonight, Tyson will make what is the most sensational and controversial comeback in boxing history.
      In what is supposed to be an “exhibition match” rather than a competitive bout, Iron Mike will trade blows with Roy Jones Jr.
      Jones, 51, has been a world champion in four weight classes from middle to heavyweight and only quit the ring two years ago.
      But due to their ages, the authorities in the US insist the fight can only go ahead with restrictions.

      Both men will have to wear bigger gloves to cushion the impact of punches and there will be a maximum of eight rounds, each lasting two minutes, rather than the normal three.
      But no one thinks that the now softly-spoken Tyson will play nicely once the bell rings.
      Frank Bruno, who felt the full ferocity of Iron Mike’s blows in a title fight in 1989 and then again in 1996, tells The Sun: “I have never heard of an exhibition fight.
      “The way Mike Tyson’s body is and mind is set, if someone tries to hit him, he will hit you harder.

      “He has a hard punch and he has venom, he was nasty.”
      Frank, who lost to Tyson both times, jokes the only person who hit him as hard as Tyson “was the taxman”.
      ‘IT MAKES MOCKERY OF THE SPORT’
      Tyson is certainly talking about the rumble like a real boxer should.
      In the run-up to the bout at the Staples Centre in Los Angeles, there was all the usual trash talk about hurting his opponent.

      He said: “Listen, I don’t know what you’re talking about that it’s not a real fight. It’s Mike Tyson and Roy Jones and I’m coming to fight and I hope he’s coming to fight. 
      “That’s all you need to know.”
      Tyson insisted his intention was to “disable my opponent” and that the bout would be “brutal”.
      He has been training hard to get close to the shape of his peak when he first won the world title in 1986 at the age of 20.

      In the other corner Jones claimed: “I love boxing. So if I die in boxing, I die a happy man.”
      Both men have a lot on the line in the fight. If they do not go at each other hard, they face ridicule from disappointed fans. But any injury could lead to permanent damage.
      The Sun’s legendary boxing correspondent Colin Hart says: “I am dead against this fight. To me it makes a mockery of the sport.
      “It is also highly dangerous, two men of 50-odd years of age to be throwing punches at each other.

      Actress Robin Givens was married to Mike Tyson for a yearCredit: Getty Images – Getty
      “Particularly Tyson, who even at 54 years of age, can still punch hard. It would never have been sanctioned by the British Board of Control.”
      So why would the white-bearded Tyson, who by all accounts has calmed down in recent years, want to fight again?
      Frank Bruno, 59, says: “Maybe he wants to get some more money, or it could be an ego thing.” Tyson says proceeds from the fight — on BT Sport Box Office and covered live on radio by talkSPORT and talkRADIO — will be going to charity. That is generous for a man who blew his £300million fortune to end up bankrupt in 2003.
      The publicity from his comeback is sure to swell the coffers of his numerous business interests though.

      On his Instagram page Tyson has been advertising his own line of T-shirts to his 13.5million followers.
      He is also promoting the idea of the Mike Tyson Legends Only League, where the “greatest athletes” will compete. This fight is intended to be a springboard for veterans from all kinds of sports to make a comeback.
      Alongside those interests, Tyson grows and sells his own brand of legal cannabis, has an animated TV show called Mike Tyson Mysteries and has appeared in films.
      Business acumen, however, has not always been his strength.

      He used to pay a trainer £80,000 a year to look after his two Bengal tigers, splashed out £1.75million on a solid gold bathtub for his first wife, actress Robin Givens, and spent £635,000 on a watch.
      Money aside, it is also possible that Tyson has a point to prove tonight.
      When he was beaten by no-hoper Buster Douglas in 1990 — his first ever loss — it was one of the biggest upsets in sporting history. And he never really recovered.
      In 1992 he was jailed for raping 18-year-old Desiree Washington in a hotel room in July 1991.

      After his release in 1995 he returned to the ring, beating Bruno in 1996 but losing twice to Evander Holyfield and once to Brit champion Lennox Lewis.
      Sun expert Colin, who interviewed Tyson many times, believes the unpredictable fighter has calmed down over the past few years.

      ‘I’VE LIVED A WILD AND STRANGE LIFE’
      He says: “At long last he seems to have mellowed with age. I think he is far more stable now than he’s ever been in life.
      “In the olds days you could go to him in the morning and he’d be charming, he was one of the most articulate fighters I have met in my life. Then you’d go see him that afternoon and he’d want to kill you.”

      Tyson has admitted to allowing his life to spiral dangerously out of control. He once commented: “I’ve lived a wild and a strange life. 
      “I’ve used drugs, I’ve had physical altercations with dangerous people.
      “I’ve slept with guys’ wives and they wanted to kill me. I’m just happy to be here. It’s a miracle.’”
      Much of the credit for Tyson’s change of fortunes has to go third wife Lakiha Spicer, who he married in 2009.

      Both she and Tyson know what it is like to hit rock bottom.
      Lakiha, 43, was sent to prison in 2008 for defrauding a company owned by her father out of £60,000.
      She was pregnant with their first daughter, Milan, at the time. 
      Tyson turned to drugs while she served six months in jail, but on her release she helped him quit.

      Tyson confessed: “I’m very happy me and my wife got together because I don’t know how I would have survived out there.”
      In the past, Tyson’s form for maintaining a relationship has not been good. 
      His first marriage to Robin, 55, lasted a year from 1988 to 1989. His second to Monica Turner lasted from 1997 to 2003.
      And he has fathered seven children from several partners.

      Tragically, his four-year-old daughter, Exodus, died in 2009 in a tragic treadmill accident.
      Despite all his setbacks, Tyson is a man who does not stay down.
      And as far as Bruno is concerned, there is nothing wrong with fighters lacing up their gloves again in their fifties.

      After all, Bernard Hopkins became the oldest world champion at 48 when he won the IBF light heavyweight crown in 2013. And Bruno, who retired after suffering a severe eye injury during his second bout with Tyson, does not rule out a return himself.
      He says: “I’m a boxer and I always will be a boxer, but I’m happy with how my life is going.
      “Age is just a number. It’s how you feel. It’s what’s in your heart, in your spirit. I turn 60 next year but I feel 25.”

      David Alaba’s stunning Wag is Shalimar Heppner, whose dad Frank is Germany’s top chef dubbed the ‘German Gordon Ramsay’

      by

      SOMETHING’s cooking for David Alaba.
      The Bayern Munich defender, 28, looks set to leave the Champions League winners after talks over a new contract reportedly broke down.

      And that has a whole host of Premier League clubs, including Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea who are looking to bring the Austrian international in on a free transfer next summer.
      Should Alaba make the move, he will uprooting his family including his stunning missus Shalimar Heppner and their son for a new challenge.
      They’ll both likely miss her dad’s cooking, who is a top chef who has been called the ‘German Gordon Ramsay’.
      But Shalimar, 26, would definitely be a welcome addition to our shores.

      LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT
      She met Alaba in 2017, and the pair immediately hit it off.
      However, they didn’t go public with their romance until 2018, when they arrived at the Oktoberfest together in Bavaria.
      Shalimar is a part-time model, but also works as a PR manager.
      And she’s picked up quite the buzz on Instagram – with almost 30,000 followers.

      However, she is not as well-known as her dad.

      YES CHEF
      Frank Heppner, Shalimar’s father, has worked almost exclusively with luxury hotel restaurants around the world.
      From designing menus at Hilton International in Seoul-Korea and the Peninsula Hotels in the Philippines and in Hong Kong to being head chef at Mark’s in Munich, Heppner’s cooking is renowned in his homeland.
      Skilled at grilled meats and fish, he’s a mean-hand at a BBQ and has been compared to our very own chef Ramsay.
      His focus is on Euro-Asian cuisine, so we want in!
      NEW ADDITION
      In 2019, Shalimar and Alaba welcomed their first child together.
      The pair have never revealed the boy’s name, and the left-back has kept the baby’s identity private, aside from an image of him holding the baby and kissing his feet.

      In 2019, Alaba and Shalimar became parents for the first time

      “I can hardly wait to show you the world,” Alaba revealed in one post gently holding the baby’s head.
      In another image, he wrote: “Thank you in 2019 for the greatest gift I could ever have imagined. We look forward to 2020 and the years to come with you.”
      Could those years to come be in the UK? Watch this space.

      Mike Tyson’s vintage TV ads from Nintendo’s Punch-out to £7.5million-per-year Pepsi deal and Kodak commercial

      by

      IN HIS early years, when he was top of his game, Mike Tyson amassed a £300million fortune.
      And that wasn’t just down to the massive purses ‘Iron Mike’ – who returns to the ring on Saturday in an exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr – used to receive, including the then record 16.5million for 91 seconds work against Michael Spinks.

      Away from boxing, Mike Tyson was an ad man’s dream

      In the late 80s he appeared in ads for the likes of Pepsi, earning millions

      Advertisers queued up to have the ‘Baddest Man On the Planet’ endorse their products.
      And, of course, he was paid handsomely. From Pepsi to Nintendo giving him his own video, Tyson raked it in.
      However, when Robin Givens appeared on a US chat show alongside the former heavyweight champ and accused him of domestic abuse, many companies withdrew their sponsorship of the star.
      But, before all of that, he was perfect fodder to appeal to consumers in the late 80s and early 90s, as these ads prove.

      PEPSI
      In 1988, Tyson inked a deal with soft drink giants Pepsi, following in the footsteps of ‘King of Pop’ Michael Jackson.
      The ‘King of the Ring’ was said to have signed a contract worth a staggering £7.5million per-year.
      And the series of ads, themselves, courted controversy with rivals Coca-Cola, who claimed the tagline that said Diet Pepsi “beat the taste of Diet Coke” in consumer tests wasn’t true.
      Tyson’s wife at the time Robin Givens also appeared in a commercial alongside him.

      Tyson signed a reported deal worth £7.5m-per-year
      However, three months into the Pepsi deal she revealed in an interview with US journalist Barbara Walters that Tyson domestically abused her.
      Pepsi shelved their expensive campaign and ditched Tyson from their promotions.
      MIKE TYSON’S PUNCH-OUT
      A year before the Pepsi deal, Nintendo of America president Minoru Arakawa saw Tyson fight in the ring.
      And he was blown over by the brawler’s ability that it became evident he should front a video game.
      Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out was launched in 1987, and gamers took control of ‘Little Mac’ with the final boss being Tyson himself, and impossible to knockout.
      Mike was paid around £35,000 for the privilege, with the deal being struck right before he became heavyweight champion.
      Three years later, and with Mike losing his crown, Nintendo ditched his name from the title.

      Nintendo signed a three-year deal with Tyson before he became a household name

      Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out featured the boxer as an impossible to beat end boss

      Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out sold over two million copies worldwide
      The end baddie’s name was changed from Mike Tyson to ‘Mr Dream’.
      Incredibly, it has sold over two million copies worldwide and regularly features in ‘Best Games of All-time’ lists.
      KODAK
      Nothing jogs the memory more than a picture.
      Which is why Kodak played on Tyson’s relationship with Cus D’Amato, who had passed two years before this ad was released.
      D’Amato famously took a young Tyson to one side and coached him in his gym before he became a mega sports star.
      And the commercial features candid snaps of the pair together, as well as the mentor watching over the boxer in the ring.
      It’s not known how much Tyson was paid for his time.

      SUNTORY DRY
      The Japanese brewing and distillery giants have roped in plenty of celebrities through the years to peddle their booze.
      From George Clooney to the late Sean Connery and Leo DiCaprio, Hollywood stars have queued to advertise their alcohol.
      “I am Mike Tyson,” he exclaims in the retro ad. “I like Suntory Dry.”
      Cut to Tyson hitting a punch bag like his life depended on it.
      According to a Suntory manager, Tyson was brought in “to communicate the power and the punch of dry beer”.

      [embedded content]
      TOYOTA
      The Asian market really believed in Tyson.
      Which is why he became the face of Toyota’s Toyoace G15 truck, not only appearing on the brochure but in their print and TV ads in 1990 in Japan.
      Again, the tie-in was all about power.

      “It’s super-strong,” Tyson says as we are treated to a montage of Toyota’s trucks riing side-by-side.
      Of course, there’s an obligatory cut away to Mike shadow boxing.
      It was believed that Tyson was paid around £1million for his brief cameo.

      Real Madrid stars who quit the club and showed they were world class elsewhere, including Rodriguez, Robben and Makelele

      by

      JAMES RODRIGUEZ, Claude Makelele and Arjen Robben are just three players that have seen their careers improve after departing Real Madrid.
      Playing for the 13-time European champions is usually seen as the pinnacle of a footballer’s career, however the trio have shown that leaving the Bernabeu is sometimes for the better.

      James Rodriguez has starred at Everton after leaving Real Madrid in the summerCredit: PA:Press Association

      Here SunSport looks at five players that have thrived since leaving Real.
      JAMES RODRIGUEZ
      The Colombian playmaker linked up with Everton in the summer on an initial two-year deal, with Toffees bringing him in on a free transfer.
      Everton look like a team transformed with the ex-Monaco ace in their starting XI, with James chipping in with three goals and four assists in his first six outings.
      His stunning form has led Madrid chiefs to become angry with Zinedine Zidane over his treatment at the player.

      It may be early in his Everton career, but he has arguably been the Premier League’s top performer so far this term.

      CLAUDE MAKELELE
      Another player that swapped La Liga for the English top-flight, the defensive midfielder left for Chelsea in 2003.
      During his three season stay at Real, he won the league twice, while also winning the Champions League, Club World Cup and Uefa Super Cup.
      He was then instrumental in Chelsea’s title-winning campaigns in 2005 and 2006.

      Makelele left Stamford Bridge in 2008 to join Paris Saint-Germain after five trophy-laden campaigns, where he had his position named after him in honour of his dazzling displays.

      ARJEN ROBBEN
      Signed from Chelsea in 2007, the Dutch forwad helped Madrid win LaLiga in his opening season, before notching in eight goals the following campaign.
      In the summer of 2009 he was forced out after the club brought in Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, with Bayern Munich signing him for £21million.
      And it was in Bavaria that he became one of the most feared wingers in Europe as he banged in 144 goals in 309 games.
      He called time on his career in Germany in 2019 after winning the Bundesliga title eight times, the Champions League once and the German Cup five times.
      Robben sits eighth on the list of Bayern’s all-time top goalscorers.

      CLARENCE SEEDORF
      Like Robben, Seedorf was forced out of the club in 1999 with the club in dire need of funds.
      Seedorf won the LaLiga title as well as the Champions League at the Bernabeu, but there was no room for sentiment as they offloaded him to Italy.
      Speaking of his move to Inter Milan, he said: “The club needed money, and I was the highest ticket.”
      He then joined AC Milan in a swap deal with Francesco Coco leaving to join Inter, and it was with the Rossoneri that the midfielder created history.
      After winning the Champions League in 2003 with Milan, he became the first person to win the European Cup with three different teams – the first being at Ajax in 1995.
      In 2007 he won the trophy again after Milan beat Liverpool 2-1, and in doing so, he was named as Uefa’s best midfielder.
      He left Milan in 2012 having scored 63 times in 431 games, where he also helped the club win the Serie A title twice.

      WESLEY SNEIJDER
      Another Dutchman that was shown the door by Real, the ex-Ajax maestro was deemed as surplus to requirements in 2009 following the arrivals of Kaka and Xabi Alonso.
      He subsequently joined Inter, where he won a historic treble in his first season.
      No other player assisted more times in the Champions League during the 2009-10 campaign, with Sneijder also named as Uefa’s Midfielder of the Year.
      That summer he helped Holland reach the World Cup final where they lost to Spain.
      As a result of his performances, he was awarded the Silver Ball after scoring five goals during the tournament in South Africa.

      Real Madrid star Eden Hazard’s amazing £10m mansion with six bedrooms and a pool he bought from a Spanish pop star

      by

      EDEN HAZARD is starting to show signs that he’s settled into life in Madrid, bagging his first Champions League goal for the club against Inter Milan.
      The Belgium star, 29, had initially struggled with his weight and fitness, but is now justifying the £88million outlay the La Liga Giants paid for him back in 2019.

      And he lives in a home fitting for a Galactico – a £10million futuristic mansion in the plush La Finca neighbourhood, where his team mates live. 
      STATE-OF-THE-ART
      Designed by Spanish architect Joaquin Torres, the property is distinctive for its black stone and state-of-the-art furnishings.
      It boasts six bedrooms and 10 bathrooms for Hazard’s family – wife Natacha and their sons Yannis, Leo and Samy.
      The ex-Chelsea playmaker has a pool, as well as a gym – meaning the mansion is quarantine-ready.

      And the amenities don’t end there. There’s a spa, should the family wish to wind down and a tennis court.
      The family can also snuggle down together for movie night in their home cinema room.
      BACK TO THE FUTURE
      Meanwhile, the entire house is automated with blackout blinds and other top-of-the-line gadgets able to be set and run by computer for optimal comfort.
