When Heavyweight Champion Mike Tyson makes a request, people listen. And if "Iron Mike" wants you to take a Bentley off his hands, what can you do? Tyson, who earned $10 million from his last fight, made just that request to two policemen who approached him after he had scratched his brand-new $183,000 silver Bentley in a New York City fender bender. "I've had nothing but bad luck and accidents with this car," the boxer said. "You guys take this car, and keep it." After some hesitation, the cops accepted. Unfortunately, police higher-ups heard of the "gift," returned the Bentley and reprimanded the beneficiaries.
