USS Clueless - Nevada Boxing commission shows some spine
     
     
 

Stardate 20020129.1646

(On Screen): In the wake of Mike Tyson's latest proof that he is a barely-controlled animal, the Nevada State Athletic Commission voted 4-1 to deny him a license to box professionally in the state of Nevada. Therefore, his scheduled April 4th match against Lennox Lewis will not take place, at least in Las Vegas where it was originally scheduled.

I applaud the NSAC for this; it demonstrates that they actually have some principles beyond "money talks". It is now time for the WBC and WBA to show some and also deny Tyson accreditation for this or any other fight. It's time for Tyson to retire.
