Seldon Featured in "One Night in Vegas"
Former WBA Heavyweight champion Bruce "Atlantic City" Express of AC was featured in ESPN's documentary "One Night in Vegas".
The documentary chronicled the friendship between legendary emcee Tupac Shakur and boxing great Mike Tyson, as well as how the aftermath of the Tyson-Seldon showdown at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas ultimately cost Tupac his life.
On September 7, 1996, Tyson stopped Seldon in the first round of their WBA-WBC unification and Shakur was shot shortly thereafter while heading to a post fight party at Club 662. He ultimately died six days later.
Seldon spoke on the Tyson fight and what it was like fighting the most feared man of his era.
Seldon, who retired with a 40-8 record, retired in 2009 following a loss to Fres Oquendo and currently trains his son Isaiah, a 2-0 super middleweight.
