KINGSTON, Jamaica (AP) -- Former heavyweight champion Trevor Berbick was found dead in a church courtyard Saturday with chop wounds to his head in a suspected homicide.

Police have arrested a man and were interrogating him at the Port Antonio police station in Portland, Constable Sheldon Francis said.

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio -- All that was missing were a few elephants, a trapeze and two more rings.

Everything else about the start of Mike Tyson`s return to boxing felt like a circus.

Mike Tyson returns to the ring in the first of many exhibition fights tonight from the Chevrolet Centre in Youngstown, Ohio. Tyson will take on Cory “T-Rex” Sanders live on pay-per-view at 7:30pm in a four round exhibition fight.

After he finishes up with his match tomorrow night in Youngstown, Ohio, look for former world champ Mike Tyson to fight November 11th in Norfolk, Virginia, according to his management. Then he’s off to California for a Nov. 25th fight in either Los Angeles or San Diego. From there a possible fight in Florida, around the time of the Super Bowl, is in the works. By summer Tyson will have fights set up in South Africa, Croatia and Russia.

MANCHESTER, England -- Joe Calzaghe survived a cut in the fourth round Saturday night to capture a unanimous decision over Sakio Bika and keep his IBF and WBO super middleweight titles.

The victory extended Calzaghe`s unbeaten record to 42-0 with his 19th successful defense of his WBO title, which he has held for nine years, and the first defense of the IBF crown he took from Jeff Lacy in March.

As I’m making the drive to the “WildCard Boxing Club” I started to think of which questions I should ask Manny, how he’ll respond, and do I dare ask about his Golden Boy Deal? The drive is about twenty minutes from the touchgloves.com offices, but that’s before bothering to figure in the L.A. traffic I’m about to endure. As I make the exit off the freeway, off to the side, up in the hills, I see the world famous “HOLLYWOOD” sign. It’s fitting that a man who came from nothing is training in the city where they say dreams come true.

Boxing fans will be treated Saturday night on HBO when England’s Joe Calzaghe (41-0, 31 KO’s) defends his IBF and WBO Super Middleweight Titles against Australia’s Sakio Bika (21-1-2, 13 KO`s). The fight, which will be held in Manchester City, England, will be televised through on HBO: Boxing After Dark.

I took the short drive to Freddy Roach`s "WildCard Boxing Club" this afternoon to visit Manny "Pacman" Pacquaio train for his November 18th bout against Erik Morales. Look for a full report soon!

Touchgloves.com writer Farz B. will be at the Wildcard Boxing Club in Los Angeles tomorrow afternoon visiting Manny Pacquiao as he trains for his upcoming fight with Erik Morales November 18th from Las Vegas, NV. He will also try and get a sit down interview with the Super Featherweight Champion. Make sure to come back tomorrow to get a full detailed report from Farz B.’s about his visit to Wildcard.

Oleg Maskaev would accept a fight with Bernard Hopkins, if the possibility ever presented itself. As long as his management would approve the fight, he would be more than willing to go up against the newly retired former Middleweight King. In fact, Golden Boy Promotions, which Hopkins partially owns, has been calling the Heavyweight Champs management, and letting them know that they are serious about getting the two fighters into the ring together. This, however, wouldn’t be the same as Roy Jones Jr. fighting Heavyweight slob John Ruiz, because Makaev can throw a punch and doesn’t hold 100 times a fight like the above mentioned slob.

More news as we hear it!

Nikolay Valuev earned a 11th round TKO victory over Monte Barrett. Valuev dominated the majority of the fight, knocking Barrett down in the 8th round and twice again in the 11th, which forced Barrett`s trainer James Bashir to stepp into the ring to end the fight.

Joel Casamayor earned a split decision victory over Diego Corrales tonight, winning the WBC Lightweight Title. The two judges scored the fight 116-111 and 115-112 for Casamayor. The third judge scored it 114-113 for Corrales.

A full recap ahead...

Nikolay Valuev (44-0, 32 KO’s) looks to make a great first impression to American fans when he defends his WBA Heavyweight Title against Monte Barrett (31-4, 17 KO’s) live on HBO from Rosemont, Illinois. Even though he’s been a champion for the last two years, not much is known about Valuev in America, but that could all change tomorrow night.

Diego Corrales (40-3, 33 KO’s) will bring everything he has when he defends his WBC Lightweight Title against Joel Casamayor (33-3-1, 21 KO’s) tomorrow night from The Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Nevada. In a rivalry that has excited fans, this third and final fight between these two sluggers will have the crowd in Mandalay Bay going crazy.

In a weird twist, Diego Corrales did not make the 135 pound weight limit for his fight tomorrow night against Joel Casamayor. Corrales has been stripped of his title, will be fined, and could face a possible suspension. He offered a portion of his $1.2 million dollar purse to Casamayor, which helped keep the fight on.

Corrales had promised, after his fight with Castillo had been cancelled, that he would never disrespect boxing the way Castillo had. It seems that his problems with the month of October continues!

This is a reminder that this Saturday Oct. 7th there will be two big fights for boxing fans to watch. The first fight will broadcast on HBO and will be the American debut of WBA Heavyweight Champion Nicolay Valuev. Standing at 7-feet high, Valuev is the tallest heavyweight champ of all time. He will defend his title against Monte Barrett live from Chicago, Illinois.

Oscar De La Hoya has officially ended his attempts to set up a rematch with Felix Trinidad. Many problems arose during negotiations, mainly purse split and weight. Trinidad wants 60-40, while De La Hoya wants 70-30. Trinidad eventually settled at 50-50, but Oscar never came around to agree. When it came time to agree on weight, Trinidad refused to go below 160 and De la Hoya refused to go above 154.

De La Hoya has also stated that if Mayweather Jr. loses his fight to Baldomir, then he will just retire rather than fight Mayweather Jr. The reason, “I want to only fight the best pound for pound fighter!”
