No more than one round / Mike Tyson vs Peter McNeeley

Подробнее о видео

Mike Tyson vs. Peter McNealy, known as "He's Back," was a professional boxing match that took place on August 19, 1995. The match marked Mike Tyson's return to professional boxing after more than four years due to his 1991 arrest and subsequent conviction for rape.
After serving three years, Tyson was paroled on March 25, 1995, and on March 29 he would hold a short press conference to announce his return to boxing and that Don King would remain his promoter. After much debate about who would be Tyson's first opponent in his comeback, including talk of a potential superfight with George Foreman, it was announced that Tyson would face the little-known Peter McNeely on August 19, 1995. The fight lasted just 89 seconds, with Tyson winning easily by disqualification.
The highly anticipated fight was a stunning financial success, grossing $96 million worldwide, including a then-record $63 million in pay-per-view buys, with the fight being purchased by 1.52 million American homes. Tyson later eclipsed this figure with three fights; two in 1996: his rematch with Frank Bruno and his match with Evander Holyfield, and then the subsequent 1997 rematch between Tyson and Holyfield.
