If I was on a jury, knowing what I know, I'd go for self-defense. I'd call the response reasonably proportional, too. If Tyson had been trying to really hurt the guy he would have ended up with more than abrasions and a pouty face.

@Demonsouls1993 A prosecutor could push that way, but AFAIK there's no law saying they're deadly weapons. That whole "these hands are registered as deadly weapons" thing is a myth.

@bowez9 That's not unfair. I tend to favor the self-defender's rights a lot more than the provoker's, but other people might disagree.

@bowez9 There I don't agree. Being especially capable of defending oneself does not, to me, reduce someone's rights in doing so.
