Mike Tyson touches down in the name of chat

The former world heavyweight boxing champion returns to Scotland ten years after he fought Lou Savarese at Hampden Park, in a farcical non-event that lasted all of 38 seconds as Tyson pummelled his fellow American with enough punches to send the referee flying as well.

The self-styled "baddest man on the planet" will talk about his extraordinary life - he was the youngest-ever heavyweight world champion - and a boxing career that has rarely strayed from the controversial.

'An Audience with Iron Mike Tyson' takes place at the Thistle Hotel in Cambridge Street, Glasgow tonight and tomorrow, and at the Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre on Saturday night. Tickets are 100 a head.
