Mike Tyson
Richard Aujard
In March 1996, at the prestigious MGM Grand in Las Vegas, a striking portrait of Mike Tyson was taken before his iconic fight against Frank Bruno. This photograph captures Tyson in a moment of intense focus, ready to reclaim his heavyweight world champion title. The fight, marked by Tyson’s resounding victory, remains etched in memory as a turning point in his tumultuous career.
This portrait not only shows the formidable boxer he was but also the aura of invincibility and determination that surrounded him at that time. The context of Las Vegas, the city of lights and major fights, adds an additional dimension to the image, symbolizing both the glory and the pressure that accompany such an event.
