real world myspace: Are you ready for a real boxing match?

Muhammad Ali versus Mike Tyson LIVE !! ! !! !

(Warning) very long, Note that i used ring commentators to describe what would happen if they ever fought.

Read it like you're watching it.

--------------------------------------...

Good evening everybody, I'm Jim Lamphly and im here with Larry Merchant and Emmanuel Stewart and we are here live in the MGM grand hotel and casino in Las Vegas Nevada, where tonight, we will see history in the making between two well known, gifted, and talented boxers to settle for the undisputed heavy title championship of the world.

Well Jim, tonight is packed, more than 50,000 people and hardly any room for more, i know this will be a memorable one. What dyou think Emannuel.

Oh yes, great night for boxing, great event to be in, especially after what we saw tonight with the fight between Winky Wright and Floyd Mayweather jr.

Just earlier ago, Floyd Mayweather jr. and Winky Wright had fought an outstanding performance but ending with a controversal draw when judges scored the bout half and half all the same in favor of Winky and Floyd. Now we await for the two real fighters, real punchers, real boxers of the main event, that is, Mike Tyson and Muhammad Ali.

Keep in mind everybody, i just want to point out something Jim, that the significance of this fight will determine not only the undisputed heavy title of the world, but also the greatest heavy weight fighter of the world.

That's right. This is the first time in history that we held the heavyweight title vacant and neutral so that both fighters may be considered both underdogs and heres Mike Tysons entry song.

Wow, what a song, such a deep monotone sound.

yup, kinda gives me that memory of the fight between Ali and Foreman when Ali was comin down with that electrofying feel to it just gives you goosebumps behind your neck.

Not to mention the fight between Tyson and Michael Spinks when Tyson walked through the ring

Its almost the same song

yeah

There he is. As we look at Tyson walking trough the ring we can see the crowd tonight with just and eerie feeling, everybody just murmuring, hardly anybody cheering. Tyson's coach Cus D'amato by his side along with Kevin Rooney arriving with a serious glance on there faces as they walk towards the corner of the ring.

And we can see here Mike Tyson, no robe one, no socks, just ready and waiting for the Muhammad Ali.

Yes, he has prepared phsically and mentally for this fight.

I donno Larry, you think Tyson must be wearing some kind of special shoes or something cuz without socks he can have serious wounds on his soles I mean this fight is very important to him.

Well, maybe he's just wearing very short socks or something.

Mike on the center of the ring walking back and forth and for the benefit of our viewers, heres the tale of the tape. Mike Tyson, 22 years old in prime condition. He weighed in this evening at 221 pounds. Reach from armpit to the end of the fist is 71 inches. His height of course is 5 foot 11 inches.

He is undefeated with 36 straight wins after that fight with frank bruno. He won Michael Spinks by knock out in round one. Unified his title three times by beating trevor berbick, James bonecrusher Smith, and Tony Tucker. All three belts have been declared vacant for the courtesy of this fight, And Here Comes ALI!

Wow, is that Joe Frazier and George Foreman behind him?

Yes, it is.

I can't believe it, who thought that it could begin like this.

No one, thats for sure.

Again, Muhammad Ali, considered by many boxing fans as the greatest fighter, walks somewhat extravagantly, poised with determination and courage.

He looks very determined today Jim.

Doesn't he always?

Yeah, Hahha i guess you can say that. He so much heart.

There's Angelo Dundee wearing the button shirt, and Drew Brown with the long sleeves, both by Muhammads side.

Foreman and Frazier, looking very dressed up this evening, having a little discusion with Ali, not sure what they're saying.

Look at Mike Tyson, just starring at Ali from across the ring. What a glazed serious look he has. That ring is packed with security across the middle.

Ali stepping on the stairs now and on to the canvas, begins to box dancing on the corner of the ring and heres the tale of the tape. 33 year old Muhammad Ali is 215 pounds and 6 foot 3 inches tall, and has a very worthy reach of 83 inches.

Muhammad Ali with 46 victories. Heres some of the highlights, winning Joe Frazier twice after losing to him back in 1971. Knocked out George Foreman to regain his title. TKO'd Archie Moore and defeated Floyd Patterson twice by KO. Beat Sonny Liston twice, second one was by one round knockout. After winning Frazier the second time, his title became vacant due to the courtesy of this fight.

Rules of the bout today givin by Harold Letterman.

Alright Jim, there are no 3 knock down rule. Only the referee can stop the fight. And if a fighter has been knocked down, he cannot be saved by the bell, including the 12th and final round, Jim...

Thank you for that Harold and now lets wait for the introductions hosted by Michael Buffer to announce the start of the bout.

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to, the MGM grand hotel and casino in Las Vegas Nevada where tonight, a scheduled 12 round bout will determine the Greatest Heavyweight Champion of the World. Brought to you by associations of Don King productions, WBC and IBF sponsors, Budweiser, UNLV ticket complementation, World Boxing Association, and HBO pay per view sports. Judges for the bout today are Frank Cappuccino, Mills Lane, and Carlos Padilla. And the person in charge of the fight this evening, ladies and gentlemen please give a warm welcome to referee Rocky Marciano!"

(cheering)

Pretty loud in here now huh Emannuel.

I can tell Rocky had made a lot more fans than both of them here tonight.

"Let us all rise for the national anthem presented by former American Idol, Ladies and Gentlemen, Miss Kelly Clarkson"

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,

What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?

Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight'

O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming.

And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air,

Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.

Oh, say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!!!

And now....

For the thousands in the Arena...

And the Billions watching...

Ladies and Gentlemen...

LETS GET READY TO RRRRRRRUUUMBBBLE !!!!!!!!!!

"Introducing first to my right, wearing the solid black trunks, official record, 36 undefeated victories including 32 knock outs, no draws no defeats. He is the three time Heavyweight Champion of the world, IRON MIKE, TYYYYYYYYYYSOOOOONNN !"

"And in the blue corner, wearing the white trunks with black trim, official record, 46 victories including 33 knock outs and only 2 defeats. He is the 2 time Heavy Weight Champion of the world, the Greatest, Muhammaaaaaaaaaaaaaad ALIIIIIII !"

Here they come both at the center of the ring with referee Marciano.

"Alright guys, I want a good, I repeat, a good clean fight"

"you know you not the greatest"

"I ask to protect yourselves at all times"

"you cant out box me, I can take you on all night long"

"yeah, yeah, will see if you can back your words up"

"I tell you, I'm the champ around here"

"They'll be no head butting, no thumbing.."

"you know you not that champ yet until..."

"Muhammad, please be quiet, im trying to give you the rules here"

"until you fight me ya big sissy"

"oh im so scared"

"you better be"

"I'll eat your children"

"Say that again"

"Okay, the both of you! Listen up or I'll disqualify the next person that speaks up. Okay, in the event of a knock down, i want the fighter standing up to go to the farthiest corner of the ring."

"Come on Mike, Say that again"

"or what? huh, whatcha gonna do"

"Alright, now touch gloves and come out boxing."

wow

yup, you can say that again, Jim.

hahaa that was quite amusing and entertaning

yup i donno when the last time i seen fighters talk among each other.

probally from the Ali, Frazier Fight.

Yeah

Here we are ready and waiting for the sound of the bell for round 1.

hmmm

crowd cheering

Ali turns around and puts his hands down

DING !

Here we go! Round 1

Ali throws the first punch with a combination.

Mike Tyson weary, not really wanting to go explode yet.

Oh, what a shot by Tyson and Ali gets a shot at Mikes chest.

This is very rare, you seldom see Ali aim for the body.

More then seldom, you never see Ali aim for the body oh a solid uppercut slightly landed by Tyson.

Ali not quite having his rhythm just yet.

Hes doing good job jabing though, well not as good as when he dances, obviously hes not dancing just yet.

A litte jab by Ali flinches Tysons head back.

"Alright, break it up! Let go, let go, stop. I said break. Okay now box"

referee Marciano having a bit of struggle there breaking the two champions

Look at Tyson just going after the body, giving those fast little hooks.

You know Larry, Tyson does have fast hands, when comes to the body.

Right, Tyson's short hands have an advantage of speed depending on...

OH what a shot by Tyson with a left uppercut. That gotta hurt Ali.

"Break!"

Not really, Ali didn't get all the angles on that left

heres Ali with a payback of solid jabs left and right Tyson cant seem to get that right uppercut with a left hook follow, crowd cheering now as Ali throws

Ali speed to me is more faster than Tyson at this point.

OH MY GOSH! what a devasting left hookAND HE's DOWN. Down goes ALI!

CROWD yelling and screaming I CANT really HEar MARCIANOS COUNT!

"three, four, five, six...."

Is gonna make it?

"eight.."

He's up, He's UP!

What a shot, oh o, here comes TYSON again, gonna finish the job!

Ali still jabbing at him, it looks as though...

OH MAN! OH GEEZ! Another oh man ALI is Down AGAIN!

"one, two, three! Four ! FIVE!"

Thats was an uppercut this time

"seven, eight, are you okay ?"

Here's Tyson comin over and

DING!

"HO! !OOKAY STOP"

Here we go as we take the camera to Ali's corner

What dyou think of the first round Emannuel

Well like i said, Ali didn't seem to be stunned there

what do you mean, he was floored two times already

yeah but

Well it is only the first round i mean

Jim, Jim, come on, look Ali didnt get stunned when he went down

well, see he got floored but when he came back up he was filled with energy

yeah but

see but most Tyson opponents seem to have givin up at that point but not Ali

No, NO, Not Ali, look he's still has the heart and determination, even more so after that round

prescisly

"Okay, champ. Now what happened, there? You got knocked down. SO what? That doesn't mean squat, you can go get him up with a couple hard striaight rights on the head, okay, ON the HEAD. where's the towel, give him some water"

so you mean to say he just lost balance on the knocked downs

yeah, well it seems

what about the second one, how can you judge that, i mean that was a clean right uppercut

that doesn't really tell a fighter has lost mentally, you only see it outside but inside, i know ALi has the heart to out box Tyson

"Alright, you get out there and this time aim for his face, don't let him get you like he did that time, okay? Go get em champ go."

%26lt;BR%26gt;

DING !

Well, we've just saw Muhammad ALi go down twice the first round now we're in the 7th.

Ali seems to be not as physical on this fight

no not at all, in fact he seems to be blockin and countering more with that one two punch and here comes Tyson again devastating with that left hook slightly blocked in the head

Again, Ali has been down before this fight, by Joe Frazier, but he only lost to a descion

right, i guess because it was during the end of the fight at the 12th but here you see ALi, Unbelievably surviving the travails of the 1st round oh what shot by Ali giving Tyson a piece of his own medicine

man if he keeps this up it will be the comeback of a lifetime

yep

DING !

I had to give that round to ALI

Yes, for the first time i think the judges will score that round for ALI

Well, Harold, by the looks of this, after losing all 6 rounds, how did you score it

Okay, Jim, 6 rounds to 1, 69, 61, Mike Tyson, Jim I gotta tell you something, from the first 6 rounds Tyson was dominating Ali and what seemed like Ali's worst torcher since the broken jaw of the Ken Norton fight and Frazier knock down, Ali finally came back with a vengance at that 7th. Oh man, who would ever thought a fighter would come back after that brutal first round. Still has a long way to go jim. 69, 61, Mike Tyson.

DING !

Okay heres round 8, you saw Harold Letterman's scorecards and it seems that Muhammad Ali needs 8 more rounds to tie the score and its obvious that Ali needs a knock down to win this fight because the fight is up to 12 rounds not 16.

Jim, I gotta point out something. Everytime ALi does that rope-a-dope thing like he did at the first few rounds, he loses the score cards, now we are in the 8th round and its obvious that he no longer needs the judges to decide who wins the fight because he is still doing the rope-a-dope a little bit here in this round.

I'm glad you mentioned that Larry, he is losing the rounds because he is giving Tyson opportunity to score heavly on the face and body. what dyou think Emannuel?

Well, Tyson is doing more jabs this round than every other round i seen so far, it may be due to the fact that Tyson is alittle bit tired of throwing those hard heavy punches

Nice right hook by Ali as he begins to dance for the first time in this round.

DING !

"Alright champ, 4 more rounds to go, 9, 10, 11, 12. Do we have to go to tweleve? no. we stop him at his tracks. Go for the double left jab on him and.."

Here we go to Tyson's corner where it seems that Tyson has a little puffyness on his right eye.

"Okay Mike, I wanna see those body shots in an angle okay? Your doing well on the jabs but keep inside, I don't want you fighting him outside, go closer okay? Listen, Ali's tired he aint do shiet to you alright. deep breath"

DING!

Here's round 9, and Ali is dancing right now. You heard trainer Kevin Rooney say that Ali is tired. Is that why his dancing? what dyou think Larry?

No, I think Ali has just begun

hahahaha you right Larry he looks as though he has taken conrol of the fight so far

yes he has, and it seems, that if he keeps his cool, he may be able to OHHH WOW right HAND by Tyson, ALI staggering!

He's alright

It looks as though there is a cut on Ali's left eye, there is

And its bleeding bad, real bad

Now Tyson, looking more encourage now backs up Ali and try to get that eye

"ALRIGHT TIME!"

referree Marciano calls time due to Ali's severe bleeding

crowd boooing at this point, doctor comin to check the wound

"yeah, yeah, just on the left. Okay he's fine"

"Alright, time in!"

oh man, this is bad, that cut on Ali is bothering him

yep what a cut, looks as though Ali is getting a bit tired again

I guess Kevin Rooney was right

naw, with the look at Ali's face i think he still can go on throughout this whole fight

DING!

Angelo Dundee coming to look at the cut, using vaseline trying to coagulate the bleeding.

"your okay, that's nothing, that's nothing. Give em some water, okay champ, look now, I want you to go around his left, dont lean back anymore, I want you go forward, this is the 10th round, I want you to back this guy up, this the championship rounds okay son. alright more vaseline."

DING!

Here's the bell for 10th and that cut is so bad but it seems to have stop bleeding.

Like I said Jim, don't judge a book by its cover, you cant tell how the story is gonna end by looking at the front part of the book.

your right, look at Ali giving those one two combinations on the head

Tyson looking awfly hesistant as hes gives Ali two hooks across his head

He's bleeding again, that cut some open at one point, OH MAN! OH WHAT A SHOT BY ALI, and Tyson is momentarly stunned there, dyou see that Emannuel?

Yup, I told you, dont judge a book, look this, ALi just givin it to em.

he's still dancing, but now hes dancing closer

yea hahaha that doesn't sound right

haha look at Ali with that nice uppercut, its one of the few uppercuts we seen in this fight

DING!

And Tyson looks tired.

Yup, i think Ali won that also

definetly

Even though doesnt really matter, hes far from close on the score cards

Don't worry I dont think the Judges would have to judge this fight at the end

predicts ay Larry?

yup, I think Ali's readdy

DING !

11th! we are at 11th round

wow, ALi with 1, 2 ,3, 4 hit combination, all landing, all solid, its just popping Tyson's head back.

oh man, i can't believe after the 2 knock downs at the first and 6 brutal rounds, Ali starts doing this to Tyson

yup, what a fight

very good fight indeed

Tyson misses with that vicicous right uppercut that he used to knock out Ali the last time

Ali hammering away left right, left right, he can't miss

That left and right eye of Tyson is really begginning to puff up

exactly, now we can hardly tell if hes look left or right anymore

DING!

AND the crowd goes wild after the 11th

Oh my heart is pumping you guys

mine too, this crazy, this turining out to be a very good fight

now we go to Tyson's corner where coach Kevin Rooney trys to heel that puffy eye

"Okay Mike, MIKE, Listen to me, Mike, Okay son, Last round, okay, LAST ROUND, I want you to beat him down with the left hook from hell that Frazier did to him okay. MIke look at me, he's going down okay, just breath, take a deep breath. Relax okay relax, deep breath"

He looks exhausted there. what a fight. How often do you see a guy that has been knocked down twice, losing mostly every round give Mike Tyson such a hard time at this point.

Never

yup, And Tyson is undefeated, and has never, I repeat, Never been floored or even close to a point to get knocked down.

CROWD RISES

Michael buffer

"LAdies and GentlemEN, we are at, the 12th and FINAL ROUND!"

Crown cheering loudly than ever before this fight

DING!!!

and heres ROUND 12

Wow, what a shot by Ali that backs Tyson up all the way to the ropes.

Ali is still bleeding hard on that eye, he is half blind at this point

Tyson again with that left hook he's been looking for and missing

OH MY GOODNESS!!!

What a flurry of COMbinations!

And TYSON IS STAGGERRING AGAIN!

Tyson landing a hard right uppercut on the side and Ali just keeps Hammering

Ali Looking to finisht the Job

TYson just can't hit him anymore, he KEEPS missing! AND wow Ali keeps popping him back and forth, left and right, over and over.

Tyson moving around more

You know Jim I don't think Tyson got really hurt at that knock down either, well to my view

I donno but Tyson is now landing that left hook he just missed a right hook there

Ali's punches land like lasers, with pin point accuracy every round

"IM KING OF THE WORLD!!! I AM THE GREATEST!"

"YOU GUYS THOUGHT I LOST, ever since the 1st round you think im gonna go and feel sorry for myself. NOWAY! I am the Greatest, those punches he throws has so much power and yet lacks the spirit that I have when I throw my punches. I just proved you all today, that even if you lost twice, even if you slightly underdog, even if Mr. Mike Tyson destroyed many of his oppponents in round 1, that I can still get up from that round 1, and knock him down in round 12, now tell yourselves, i wont go down that easily, cuz i smoke like butterfly and sting like a queeeen bee!"

"WOw, you have a lot to say Muhammad"

"I AM THE GREATEST!"

"THANK YOU FOR THAT MUHAMMAD"

"okay, Mike, Tells us how you feel"

"Oh, he got me with some good shots at the end, namsayin', ebe time i comes he goes, waling back and forth, i would have got at the 1st if it hadn't been for Rocky slow count, Id be on my limo cruisin by now, ya know im sayin, thats just ludacris, you can't possilbe believe that its fair to come back like this naw, man, he just lucky, lucky shots, lucky everything, he aint no champ. hez a chump to me, I would have im on round 12 too."

"Do you think, if ever there is a rematch, would you beat him?"

"of course, Not only I will beat him, I would, destroy him from ever boxing again"

"THANK YOU"

"and thank you all the people that witnessed this show. There comes a time, when champions and other champions, know that no matter how tough a situation is, you gotta see it to believe it, and we saw it, all in the MGM grand and in your living room or TV. This has been the most Historic matches of the 21st century. This is going to be both fight of the year, and upset of the year in ring magazine. Again, Im Jim Lamphly, wih Larry Merchant and Emannuel Stewart, sayin so long, and have a great evening..."

(just my opinion of how that fight would be, hope its not too long, lol)

THIS HAS BEEN A PRESTATION OF HBO SPORTS

AND CNN
