No Deal for Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield

When Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr. had their exhibition fight, we saw Mike training like he did back in the day. Well when Mike was training, we heard Evander Holyfield was training and wanted to hop back in the ring with Mike. This would have been the third time the two of them would have ben in the ring, however, it won't happen. According to TMZ, negotiations fell apart. Mike made an announcement on his podcast that he had a massive event coming up at the end of May and people assumed it would be a fight against Evander. Well, there were some talks and a deal in the works, but everything fell apart. Apparently, Evander's team thought it was a done deal, but Mike's people declined all of the offers. And sources say both Mike and Evander spoke to each other in the beginning of the negotiations and agreed to do a 50/50 split on the profit but then things changed and Evander's team says Mike's team wanted more of the cut. If they come correct, Evander is still down to fight, but right now, don't bank on it.
