By Associated Press SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic -- The Associated Press erroneously reported Feb. 21 that Mike Tyson plans to train in the Dominican Republic for a match with Lennox Lewis.
Sterling McPherson, speaking in English to Dominican reporters, said he was holding a news conference "to explore the possibility" of such a training session. A simultaneous translation into Spanish misstated his plans; the AP's story was based on the Spanish translation.
Tyson adviser Shelly Finkel said the boxer had no intention of training in the Carribean nation.
The AP also erroneously identified McPherson as a member of Tyson's management team. McPherson heads his own company, Sterling Promotions, and is not associated with Tyson.
