Shame on all the media for only bashing what Mike Tyson did in the press conference with Lennox Lewis to promote their April 6th fight.

For some dumb reason Tyson wanted a face off, and when he walked over to Lewis, a bodyguard stepped in between them and the melee started. Now for some of these media people who thought it was all Tyson's fault when it was clear he threw a left hook at the guard who tried to grab him and then Lewis fired a right hand at Tyson while he was entangled with the bodyguard, who is really scared of who?

For those of you who don't know, Tyson gets up in all his opponents faces during the stare downs and it looked like that's all that was about to happen. I think it's sad that now because of his past history anything Tyson does, is reported. People forget that he goes back to Brownsville, (Brooklyn), N.Y. and gives jackets to homeless people every year but don't worry because you'll never hear about that.

For Lennox Lewis shame on him for not putting a stop to it, because his first reaction was to back up because he thought Tyson was going to do something. Lewis now has been in two pre-fight brawls so it's not like this was all Mike's fault. You know it's bad when radio, TV stations and newspapers let this B.S. make the headlines when if you stop and think about it three of the best FIGHTERS in the world are fighting over the next two weeks but all that is paid attention to is this crap.
