Lewis may face Tyson again with $30 million guarantee
London heavyweights Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson earned $17.5 million each for their Memphis bout where Lewis stopped Tyson in eight rounds to defend the WBC and IBF titles. Organizers would need a $30 million guarantee for a rematch, Lewis said. In Ohio, Laura Diaz shot 7-under 64 at Jamie Farr Kroger Classic to grab a two stroke lead after two rounds. Diaz’s round was the lowest of her four year pro career, as she sits 8-under 134, two ahead of Beth Bauer, Jeanne-Marie Busuttil, and Kris Tschetter.
