Tyson
MIAMI, FL- Former World champ Roberto Duran is reportedly on his way to Miami to meet with former Heavyweight champion "Iron" Mike Tyson.
"Tyson called me and asked if I could train him." Duran said. "He told me that he has arranged a place for me to stay while we train in Miami."
Duran says he is willing to train Mike, so long as the once undisputed heavyweight champ stays focused and on track. "I'm not going over there to waste my time." he said. "So he is going to have to obey me."
Duran says he will arrive in Miami sometime sunday, and from there he will meet with Tyson, so that the two can iron-out all the details.
