The Mohegan Sun Casino in Connecticut has expressed interest in getting Mike Tyson to box on the reservation.

But an agreement is far off, a casino executive told The Norwich Bulletin. The Mashantucket Pequot casino is not interested, though, said an official there.

Tyson needs a place to fight Lennox Lewis on April 6 since the state of Nevada won't give him a boxing license. The denial came after a fight broke out at a press conference featuring Tyson and Lewis, who said a large chunk of his ear was bitten off by the former heavyweight champ.
