Tyson Looks to Japan for Income
Fri Aug 29, 6:53 PM ET

By The Associated Press

Mike Tyson is looking outside boxing to pay some of his debts. The former heavyweight champion has signed a deal with a martial arts promoter in an effort to diversify his income. The agreement, according to Japan's K-1 organization, gives it certain management rights and rights of refusal for Tyson's activities in Japan.

It apparently, however, doesn't call for Tyson to engage in a martial arts contest with K-1 star Bob Sapp, who Tyson challenged after viewing one of his matches in Las Vegas earlier this month.

Tyson, who hasn't fought since stopping Clifford Etienne in February, recently filed for bankruptcy protection in New York. Recent filings indicate Tyson owes $17 million in back taxes and another $10 million in other debts.

Watched a "tall redwood tree" last nite on ESPN. Named Tye Fields, I believe. Won a non-descript title bout by decision. Gawd, these guys are getting big! This one was 6'9" and 278#. Plenty of muscle. Mannie Stewart has taken over his training.
