Mike Tyson-Frans Botha II?

Friday July 11, 2003
On Jan. 16, 1999, Frans Botha beat Mike Tyson for four rounds. Unfortunately for Botha the bout was scheduled for ten rounds. A vintage Tyson right in the fifth round put a quick end to what looked to be an upset in the making. Now it appears that Botha might get another shot at Tyson -- this time on Sept. 13 in Johannesburg, South Africa. A curious choice of opponents for Tyson, but if it happens - a big if - it would certainly prove more competitive than his latest bout against Clifford Etienne.
