"Iron" Mike Tyson vs. Frank Bruno

Third time's a charm.

The fight between Tyson and Bruno was scheduled and canceled twice before finally happening on Feb. 25, 1989. It was first scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 3, 1988, then Oct 8, a month later. While the September guide has a 3/4 page ad promoting the fight and lists it in the Sept. 3rd schedule, they were able to slap a POSTPONED TO A LATER DATE banner over it before it went to print.

They were not able to update the update the Oct. 1988 guide in time however, with the Tyson fight appearing on the cover and in another 3/4 page ad inside, this time with no indication that it was postponed. According to the N.Y.Times, the September 3rd scheduled fight was replaced with an airing of Mannequin.

Sept 8, 88 Schedule

And the October 8th fight was replaced with an airing of Nadine.
