Mike Tyson Now Sponsored By Gambling Site 7Red
January 28, 2014 2:16 pm7Red Casino has just announced that its brand new spokesperson is none other than professional fighter Mike Tyson. As part of his official ambassadorial duties, the 47 year-old bad boy of boxing is now appearing on televisions screens across Europe promoting this well-known Betsoft gaming casino with one commercial showing a smart dressed Tyson tempting viewers to try to win themselves a slice of the good life.
Former heavyweight champion of the world Mike Tyson became a living legend after successively unifying WBC, WBA and IBF titles, whilst becoming the youngest boxer in history to win the heavyweight titles at just 20 years of age. As Mike Tyson announced on November 22, 1986:
“I’m the youngest heavyweight boxing champion in history and I’m going to be the oldest.”
Unfortunately things didn’t quite pan out that way for “Iron Mike”, who defended his title nine times before Buster Douglas took his crown in 1990. Following his surprise defeat, Tyson’s life began to unravel and soon after he spent three years in prison for rape, later biting off Evander Holyfield’s ear during a 1995 comeback fight. He subsequently retired for good in 2005.
More recently, however, Mike Tyson has been working to put his life back on track, including starring in Hollywood Blockbuster films, such as the Hangover series, becoming a fight promoter, as well as starring in his own touring stage show called “Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth”.
Now with his sponsorship deal with 7Red online casino, Tyson has already been busy autographing 7Red boxing gloves, caps and T-shirts as part of a prize promotion daily giveaway that will give 7Red customers a chance to own a piece of boxing history. So, if you are a fan of Mike Tyson and would like to win a signed memorabilia from the 9-times heavyweight boxing world champion, then head over to 7Red and register your new account today.
