News 11/09/06

Mike Tyson used to put on displays. On this day, he was just on display.

The former baddest man on the planet has been reduced to this -- just another freak show on the Las Vegas Strip.

Tyson once made $35 million for one fight and more than $300 million in his career before blowing it all. Now he's a casino sideshow, trying to make a few bucks the only way he knows how in a sport he no longer can stand.

"I truly hate fighting," Tyson said. "I've got a bad taste in my mouth."

But he owes his creditors millions, needs the money desperately and took up the casino on its offer to make some.

"I'm looking to make a buck like anyone else," said Tyson
