	Bruce Seldon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bruce Seldon (born January 30, 1967) was the World Boxing Association Heavyweight champion from 1995 to 1996.
		It was after a boxing match between Seldon and Mike Tyson that Tupac Shakur was murdered in a drive-by shooting.
		Seldon was subjected to much ridicule after the bout because many thought he seemed scared to death of Tyson and went down and out from only a glancing blow to his head.

	Boxing News : Gerbasi : Seldon Returns to The Scene of His Greatest Disaster Saturday
		On Saturday, Seldon, in the third fight of a comeback he began in March, will return to Las Vegas for the first time since the Tyson bout to battle unbeaten prospect Gerald Nobles on the Roy Jones-Antonio Tarver II undercard.
		Seldon has scored two wins on the comeback trail, knocking out serviceable journeyman Otis Tisdale in March, and former middleweight Lenzie Morgan in April (the less said about that mismatch the better).
		Seldon would defend his title once, a tenth round TKO of Joe Hipp, before being led to the slaughter against Tyson.

	CNN/SI - Boxing - - Friday June 26, 1998 11:24 AM
		CAMDEN, New Jersey (AP) -- Former WBA heavyweight champion Bruce Seldon was sentenced Friday to five years probation plus 364 days in the county jail for smoking pot with a 15-year-old girl and taking part in "sexual activity" with her last year.
		The jail sentence was stayed until Wednesday to allow Seldon's attorney to apply for house arrest or a work release program for his client in place of the jail term.
		Seldon, 31, admitted picking the girl up in Atlantic City on November 17 and taking her to his house in Gloucester Township.

		Plain and simple, Bruce Seldon was scared to death.
		The fear which overwhelmed Seldon was the same fear which destroyed Frank Bruno last March and so many other opponents in Tyson's thunderous, tumultuous, controversial and sensational career.
		To their credit, both Bruno and Seldon brought two of the finest-sculpted bodies the heavyweight division has ever seen into the ring in Tyson's last two fights, or perhaps we should say, last two outings.

		Tonight’s victim in the scheduled 10 round main event was former WBA heavyweight titlist Bruce Seldon who was dragged out of retirement to put a name on Fields’ record.
		Seldon, unburdened of the chore of punching, used his hands to cover his face.
		Seldon got up and the fight continued, but within moments Fields landed a left hook to the body, then shoved his left hand in Seldon’s face, which was enough to cause Seldon to crumple in the corner.

		Seldon's face-first fall was so mysterious that referee Richard Steele first started to rule it a slip.
		As Seldon was returning to anonymity, promoter Don King was leveraging the occasion to announce Tyson's next bout in the postfight press conference, complete with an unfurling banner (finally!) and a short TV promo that promised there is at least one man left who's not afraid of Tyson.
		The Reverend Jesse Jackson, a Tyson friend who baptized him a religion ago and who was at the Seldon fight, doubts that the fighter has the "penchant for social awareness" that Muhammad Ali had.

		In the dream, Seldon and Tyson are both cut and each is knocked down.
		When asked what should be in Seldon's mind he said with sincerity "Don't show up." Over and over again Tyson repeated "I just want to fight." By the end of the call, he had made that clear.
		Bruce Seldon, when you climb through the ropes on July 13 you are going up against Iron Mike Tyson.

		Seldon is known as the Atlantic City Express and his journey with Tyson certainly was a fast one.
		After Seldon took the mandatory 8-count on his feet, Tyson dropped Seldon face down with a left hook.
		Although the left hook that scored the second knockdown was a solid one to the chin, the estimated crowd of 9,000 booed lustily when both knockdowns were rerun on the big screens in the arena.

		IF you paid to watch the Mike Tyson-Bruce Seldon fight card, let me be the 1,000th person to call you a sucker.
		Then it was Seldon, who fell the first time after getting little more than a love pat on top of the head from Tyson.
		Just when referee Richard Steele was ready to continue the fight, though, Seldon suddenly got a case of rubber legs and Steele had little choice but to call it a night for both fighters after 109 seconds.

		I doubt that Bruce Seldon was watching, but he should have been.
		From what I have read and heard about the fight, Seldon went down the first time from a glancing right, which referee Richard Steele at first thought was a slip.
		Then Seldon took a legitimate left hook to the side of his face and decided he had given enough of his body.

		Seldon says his comeback is more about redeeming himself for his poor performance against Tyson than making more money.
		Seldon has not fought since he barely allowed Tyson to hit him on Sept. 7, 1996, and seemed as though he would walk away wealthy and healthy.
		Seldon spent about a year in jail and received five years probation for smoking marijuana and taking part in sexual activity with a 15-year-old girl, but has remained relatively trouble-free since that 1998 incident.

		Of course, I didn't pay-to-view Iron Mike "fight" Aluminum Bruce, but I hear all 109 seconds were pretty entertaining.
		Ask Seldon about spinning heads and he'll probably ask if you couldn't possibly just count to 10 a little faster.
		Okay, maybe Seldon just sucks and maybe Georgia Southern and Southwestern Louisiana have been a bit out of their weight divisions trying to go toe-to-toe with UF, but even champions need a few warm-ups before facing real competition.

		Then there is Bruce Seldon, a Westville, N.J., heavyweight who got knocked out by Tye Fields in the second round of an Oct. 28 fight at the Orleans.
		Based on the BSI, Seldon entered the fight at high risk of brain injury with a three-point rating, having earned two points for losing via a technical knockout once in his prior three fights and another point for his age, 38.
		But after being knocked out, it would be tough for Seldon to get approval to fight in Nevada again, Ratner said.

	Tye Fields Destroys Bruce Seldon
		The fight itself seemed to be fought in slow motion, with the big, slow moving Fields plodding forward against the 38-year-old Seldon, who’s physique looked nothing like his former well muscled self.
		Instead, Seldon appeared to be carrying around an extra twenty pounds of fat, which clearly had an effect on his once awesome hand speed, as his punches lacked any kind of snap.
		Early in the 2nd round, Fields knocked Seldon down with a clubbing left to the head and then added a body shot for good measure.

		Seldon, justifiably nervous being back in the ring for the first time since his emotionally traumatic and devastating 1st round knockout loss to Mike Tyson in 1996, weathered an early Tisdale body assault before finding his groove.
		Tisdale did manage to get back to his feet but was in no shape to continue as referee Eddie Cotton reached the count of ten and waved a halt to the one-sided bout.
