Had another workout at the yup gym, I really liked their Hammer Strength iso-lateral hi row machine, it was a real back burner. The yup gym is a nice place to visit but I think I'm going to renew my membership at my current gym. Its not as flashy but it definately gets the job done and thats what counts.
In the world of boxing Mike Tyson(139lb.) soundly manhandled Brian "Danish Pastry"Neilson(260 lbs.) in a six round bout. Before the fight in Copenhagen the crowd of 25,000 sang the Neilson's theme song "Always Look On The Bright Side of Life" from the Monty Python movie "The Life of Brian" and threw plastic ears into the ring as a reminder of Tyson's ear biting incident with Evander Holyfield. The "Danish Pastry"nicknamed for his ample midsection claimed he would beat Tyson black and blue, but it seems he was on the receiving end and on the canvas the whole fight till he gave up. Tyson who weighed in some twenty pounds heavier than his normal weight claimed that with two more fights he would be ready to assualt the Heavyweight title for a third time. The Tyson camp just seem to get more and more unusual, from ear biting to wanting to eat opponent's children and now, boxing/battering large Scandinavians. Despite all the weirdness, Tyson still is a complete engine of boxing destruction and it will be interesting to see where it all goes. That Mao tattoo on his right arm is just too much.
