Mike Tyson just ended tonight's fight against the Black Rhino.

POWERFUL right hook from Tyson to Etienne ended the fight at 0:49 of the
first round. It looked like a punch Tyson hadn't thrown in ten years.
VERY impressive.

after the fight, the ring interviewer asked Tyson about almost calling
the fight off due to illnes; asked Tyson how he was.

Tyson answered: "My back is broke."

the interviewer kinda said "What?"

and Tyson answered: "My back, it's broke."

and the interviewer says "a vertebrae?"

and Tyson says: I was doing my 2500 hundred situps a day with 20 pounds
of weight behind my head, and suddenly I became paralyzed.
The doctor looked me over and told me my back was broke.

and the interviewer says something like "huh?"

and Tyson says: "My spine; it's broke."

---the life of Mike Tyson just keeps getting weirder and weirder.
