Kevin McBride floors Tyson

Mike Tyson had derisively described our Kevin McBride as ''a tomato can''. But it was Iron Mike who was made to look like a vegetable as no-hoper Kevin McBride ended the career of the former world heavyweight champion after six rounds of their fight in Washington DC.

The Irish flag was once again flying in Clones County Monaghan, Kevin's hometown.

The 31-year old boxer says he wants to become Ireland's first champion of the world

It really ticks me off that a Over the Hill (age 38) Tyson can pull in 5 million bucks for this fight, and worse, people pay to see him.
