Tyson, Holyfield to get $30 mn for rematch
REUTER
LAS VEGAS, May 29: Evander Holyfield and Mike Tyson each will receive a guaranteed $30 million for their heavyweight title rematch next month, promoter Don King said on Wednesday. Recent reports pointed that Tyson was to have received $5 to $10 million less than Holyfield and that Tyson was upset with not receiving parity with the man who thoroughly beat him up before stopping him in the 11th round of their first fight on November 9. But in a telephone conference call on Wednesday, King said, ``Mike is getting $30 million too.'' Copyright © 1997 Indian Express Newspapers (Bombay) Ltd.
