[1] The match was stopped and ruled a no contest before the second round after Tyson committed a foul, injuring Norris.
After a year-and-a-half long layoff, Mike Tyson made his long-anticipated return to boxing on January 16, 1999 against Francois Botha.
[3] Tyson would serve four months in prison before being paroled for good behavior on May 21 and then being officially released on June 4.
Norris offered little offense during the round, only landing a few jabs while mostly attempting to avoid trading blows with the stronger Tyson.
Norris then notified the official ringside doctor Flip Homansky that he had injured his knee following the fall and as a result, could not continue with the fight, which was stopped and ruled a no-contest.
[12] Tyson then chose not to proceed with a rematch with Norris and instead agreed to face British journeyman Julius Francis in Manchester in January 2000.
