Promoter: Tyson-Nielsen to take place as scheduled

Reuters

COPENHAGEN, Denmark -- Former world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson will fight against Denmark's Brian Nielsen on Oct. 13 in Copenhagen as planned despite the terrorist attacks on the United States.

Some American sports personalities have reduced their traveling after the attacks.

But Danish promoter Mogens Palle told Reuters: "Nothing has changed. I had confirmation on Friday that Tyson will fight in Denmark on Oct. 13."

Tyson is due to arrive in Denmark on Oct. 4.
