Tyson’s team try to repair the damage

MIKE TYSON’S team were working hard yesterday to repair the damage caused by the former world champion’s wayward preparations for his Saturday night comeback fight in Memphis.

Tyson has apparently decided to fight Clifford Etienne after all despite reported severe health problems and allegations he neglected his training programme after a row over his purse.

Tyson arrived in the southern city two days later than planned with a large tattoo covering the left side of his face.
