and Warren said he would cover it and just get in that ring. The rest is history because he got a title shot.
Yeah he eventually got his dough much later but, he wasn't meant to win, he was there to make Tyson look good, if he doesn't win he doesn't get the Vitali fight. He could have been smashed to bits by Tyson for a fraction of the purse he was promised. There's no big fight after that. Nice game.
