Thousands of years from now, the way people talk about our ancient people, God damn Alexander the great, Aristotle., all those people, Leonardo DaVinci, all them people, all the mythical historical people, I hope they tali about Mike tyson like that. Not saying glorify it but talk about the whole person cause Mike tyson is in my opinion on of the most interesting public figures in my lifetime.
He was reflecting how much it matches to going for a battle in rap first times since he is from that. That's why he brings up being nervous and wanting to kill the other guy
I fights, and I've been through multitudes worse than mike. I don't feel the need to seek opportunities to hurt others to prevent my own suffering furtherance. That's a false dichotomy. I simply avoid humans.
@@horustrismegistus1017 that’s pretty narcissistic to assume you’ve been through “multitudes” worse than anyone, especially someone you don’t know at all
It's a survival thing you don't want to be weak cause they seen like prey in the rough environment he was in growing up brought the monster out of him but he can be gentle like a dove too you see him how peaceful he look with his birds.
@@horustrismegistus1017 narcissistic, literally the definition of it,self boosting,you had a different response, I might have different,the debate lies in the morality of it and the degree to which it can be allowed,but nothing's perfect,that I think is agreeable.
I've never seen someone who can freely and excellently express himself and his emotions like mike tyson in every interview he's in , you have to love him
That probably took an IMMENSE amount of work from him. Because you have to understand he wasn't that guy for half his life. He was the guy that would bury his feelings and fight them away.
Em knows exactly what that’s like!!! He lashes out in songs the same way because of childhood trauma and being scared!!! But these backgrounds made the best mc, and best fighter on the planet!!!!
I had a traumatic upbringing as well and I swear I could feel Em’s soul in this interview. He says “yeah” because he understands completely. Mike and Em are both legendary geniuses of raw authenticity. I thank God we’re blessed with them both 🙏🏼
Em didnt expect that at all but he realized that Mike felt the same way he did and went through the same things as him and it definitely hit him deeply
@Mr. Nobody sadistic in feeling pleasure in pain and humiliation of others ...he things he will get hurt and is happy when the other rather gets hurt that's why he says he turns into an animal ...stop talking trash out of nowhere
Yeah in another interview he explains that he is absolutely terrified every moment before the fight and non stop thinking about being beaten badly. He said he's so scared his heart is pounding until he steps into the ring. And he said the second he stepped into the ring he became an unstoppable monster with immeasurable confidence. I paraphrased because I haven't seen the interview in years, but it's something similar to that. I'm sure you could find it. His mental state is amazing and I love hearing him explain himself.
Bro hurt people hurt people dont you know that he had a Fear of being bullied and picked on because of his environment end up making him arguably the best fighter ever to box sometimes the bad things that happen to us in life shape us to become Great you better be going through some pain that's where the lesson is.
One Legend talking to another. You can tell Eminem has great respect for Tyson because he's trying to ask a genuine question about whether Mike is ever nervous or afraid before stepping into the ring and is trying his best to make sure he doesn't come across as disrespectful to him in any way. Thankfully, Mike has enough humility to understand what Em is getting at and flat out says that he was scared every time. Amazing character moments from both of them.
I understand that feeling, he's afraid of his capacity to escalate his aggression/ violence to a level that most would be too faint of heart to imagine. Bullies may be bad but the product of their actions may be WAY worse.
No he's in the past said he was scared. In his early amateur fights he was literally crying before his fight. Hes scared. Scared of loosing and sacred of getting hurt scared of his opponent. Hes dreamt of them beating him. Its fear but he controls it and when the moment comes all of it goes away. Ive boxed and i can relate ive felt like calling off the fight even though it was my 20th fight, the feelings never go away, not really you just learn to manage it better. But when that bell rings, when the punches start, you training takes over, and you realize theres nothing you love more.
JP really hit the nail on the head with that comment. Especially for many men out there now. As you get older you do realize how much sense that quote actually makes.
I love this guy so much, his situation sounds very relatable to many people... maybe sometimes you have to fight and be excessively cruel and tough in order to make yourself feel safe.
Fists kill more than guns. Interesting. Flesh and bones kill more humans? Then again. Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face- Mike Tyson.
Very true. After my knee reconstruction I had a massive brace on my leg, and after 6 weeks I was told I could start learning how to walk. As I limped along in public, entire leg covered in a metal/plastic brace I felt like a dying animal left on the side of the road, starving and desperate to live. I was ready to attack anything and anyone that’d try to hurt me. Kept a switchblade visibly hooked onto the front strap of the brace. I’d go into federal buildings in DC, secret service would look at the knife and I’d explain why I had it, they all understood. Had to leave it outside of course, but everyone understood why I kept the blade on me
The way Mike explained that, I literally felt that to my bones… it clearly shows the look in his eyes before and during a fight. It makes me look at all of his fights differently now lol
And people I punch keep on forgetting, that they fell down because I knocked them out, they missed the whole 10 second count, 40 seconds in the first round, your times up, pal, brain damaged now.
Only curious, that the first time outta school you ever write algebra-looking stuff? 6th grade education here. This seems like the only reason I ever saw for it. BTW, I don't guess I'm stupid, I make good money to beat on shit and weld a little.
What an incredible time we live in where very manly men are able to speak freely about their fears and vulnerability. That’s real strength in my opinion. 👏
It's funny seeing people make fun of Em's grammar likes He's not just a Guy! This is authentic Em speaking from the heart. Searching for the words to say to a Man who's basically a God of Men also! People feared Mike in the Ring, like Rappers fear Em on the Mic! It's genuine.
Lovely comment. Just genuine talk on a genuine conversation. SeriousJones, I just respect you so much right now, and I don't even know you. You really get it so well and I agree so much with you. I really feel this clip just the way you are telling
Em is a writer, he asks these type of questions because he's detailed in his stories. This adds a layer into what goes on in a fighters mind before the fight. He can trun this into a verse and have a deeper connection cause of what Mike just told him.
I've never been able to put it into word but when I heard this I broke down in tears like instantly. Every single day that's I feel it's HORRIBLE. Thanks for helping for put it into words Mike you've just helped me more that you know. Strength to you
This was a perfect question to a perfect answer. Boxing was a way in which Tyson dealt with his fears and released his anger. That’s what made him an animal in that ring. He was not just fighting for his wins but he was fighting for his life
"So I'm an animal now" thats fucking deep, It made me instantly visualise a wolf and i don't think I'm to far of with that shit. Maybe that why he is one of the few people in the world who can sleep with a Tiger in their bed its raw animal instinct most of us would be ripped apart while we sleep probably on the first night. Mike Tyson is one of the greatest ever and will be remembered with the same respect as Muhammad Ali. There both amazing boxers but they both have a deep connection with who they are and what they believe even away from the spotlights of boxing and for that i also thank these interviews and people just being real and i love that. Big respect to you all and the beatbox community.ESH👊🔥👊
Mike Answers start off very soft and vulnerable, and by the end of his answer, he very slowly explains, That his strengths is his openness to weakness🙌🏽 Champ Mentality
You know that tingling sensation when you get scared? All the hairs in your body start stand up? It’s like fear gives you a momentum and adrenaline to fight back. I think that’s what made him that unstoppable fighter. Embrace fear
I think talking and meeting Tyson would be just fucking awesome. He's probably the only famous person I'd actually care to meet. He's always just open and genuine.
I love that Mike has done the hard work to know himself in & out, so he can be actually truthful & genuine. It's a beautiful example of taking everything that was given to u & using it to find your way. It inspires me.
Man, Tyson is the ideal male role model, dude went through hell, gathered strength through his trauma and used it for violence to a point where people feared and still fear him, he went to the lowest lows, got in tune with his own feelings, acknowledged his trauma, acknowledged his anger and no longer allowed them to control and dictate his life, he is indeed still an animal, but has such discipline, self-awareness and is so in tune with himself and his emotions that he just does not need to be the violent, brash man he was in his youth, that is a real man, not afraid to be himself and at peace with all sides of him.
Em: “what did you feel like walking into the ring?
Mike: “my palms were sweaty, knees weak, arms were heavy”
There's vomit on his gloves already, d'amato's spaghetti.
His palms are sweaty,
wrapped up gloves are heavy,
There's oil on his body he's ready,
touch gloves he's steady,
Not nervous, but on the surface he is scared but ready to drop Holmes,
And he keeps on dodging jabs ducking down,
The whole crowd goes so loud,
he counters the hooks and the man wobbles down,
It's over now,
everybody's cheering now,
The ref ran up,
fight's up TKO!
Underrated comment
I'm so mad that the two people above didn't continue the lyrics properly. Uncultured swines
Good one 😂😂😂
Mike's brutal honesty is beautiful to listen to🙂
There's nothing to lie about when ur mike tyson
I've never heard anyone be that honest about who they truly are, there's an immense amount of strength in that, he's been through a lot in his life. Peace be with you Mike!
His age allowed him to be more honest I guess.
If only he was honest about being a rapist
I love him to
So basically he's saying "I'm fighting my fears by beating the shit out of people who trynna scare me"

Cuz his trying not to rap
Lol I noticed that with Cole too. When it comes to actual speaking in interviews they’re not as succinct and smooth.
Yeah, cause he's scared
Your can tell how humbled Eminem is in this moment. He's just Marshall, hanging with a childhood hero.

“I been abused all my life… I’m afraid I’m going to get hurt.. So I’m an animal now”

His childhood. Childhood affects man mentally from early age.
@Giovanni Garcia yessir I like that a lot too
.
Like seriously... This hits so hard
We are all primates I learned that from the science museum in new York city lol
Whenever Mike Tyson talks it is so deep. He always give away a piece of himself.
"I am not nervous, I am scared"... the simple truth. That's it.
He keeps it real he got my respect 💯
It's why I love him, he's open. You can learn alot from being that way
All thanks to the psychedelic shrooms. He's doing therapy with them and shed his suffering away, now he's conscious of everything that he was
Thimple
@@TalTheBest ngl id love to try shrooms feel like they would help me find myself cuz im still in process of doing it
It takes a big man to admit something like that 💯
Forgive others not because they deserve forgiveness, but because you deserve peace.

2 true legends
This dude NEVER ceases to amaze me with his answers. His life story is so insane.
First time I've ever seen Eminem in so much awe of someone. The power of Mike Tyson 😎
One of the most legendary fighters to ever exist. Anyone would be awestruck in his presence.
I love this guy so much, his situation sounds very relatable to many people... maybe sometimes you have to fight and be excessively cruel and tough in order to make yourself feel safe.
This is the most raw thing I've seen in a while
So...Therefore, "Its KILL or be KILLED".
🥊🥊💯
"I CHOSE TO KILL".
Fists kill more than guns. Interesting. Flesh and bones kill more humans? Then again. Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face- Mike Tyson.
Life is a journey not a destination Tyson is so emotionally eloquent
This short just hit me so fucking hard hearing fucking Mike Tyson talking about having natural fear as I have the same from PTSD
He was literally a cornered dog. A lot of dogs bite out of fear. They’re afraid so they attack.
Very true.
Exactly, but don't let Mike bite. Because he will bite your f-----g ear 👂 off. 😵💫😎
Very true. After my knee reconstruction I had a massive brace on my leg, and after 6 weeks I was told I could start learning how to walk.

What a great insight into one of the most intense boxers of all time, HUGE respect goes to Tyson for admitting all that
Eminem is what Mike Tyson is to Boxing.
Mike Tyson is what Eminem is to Rap.
Goats.

Mike is incredibly honest to himself and others without bulshitting. Would never think that such a confident dude can have a tinge of fear.
The bravery he’s showing by being brutally honest. ❤👑
My favorite thing about tyson is his honesty
Wow honesty is true strength for Tyson to say something like that he's a real man 👏
Real fucking OG!
Oh my goodness!! I’m crying from this! You answered a question for myself!! Thank you for helping me understand why I’m the way I am!! 🙏❤️
Mike Tyson is one of the most self-aware, articulate people I’ve ever heard speak.

“I have natural fear of not being safe.” That reality hit and went through me… amazing. I UNDERSTAND .
I love how much Mike grew as a man.
I swear when Mike starts talking i juat fo into a trance listening to him.
That's sad
That's deep, and I know what he is projecting
What is he projecting?
Fight or flight kicked in and it turned him into a beast.
“I’m scared, so now I’m sadistic because I don’t want to get hurt. I’m like an animal now.” This is how you turn a negative into a positive.
You really can be misconcieved by mike's voice but he really is one intelligent human being🐐

I think Mike Tyson is a great guy and is for sure in my opinion the greatest boxer in history and an awesome person
The way he breaks it down is amazing. Tyson is really a smart guy.

Tyson is the real deal.. He says it like it is. Scared, and overcoming that makes you a real brave champ..
Mike Answers start off very soft and vulnerable, and by the end of his answer, he very slowly explains, That his strengths is his openness to weakness🙌🏽 Champ Mentality
When you have clarity you don’t need confidence god bless
Wow, I'm so glad this I interview happened, Mike is in a place to talk about his experiences.
The Mike Tyson of the boxing gloves 🥊 & the Mike Tyson of the actual mic 🎤 🎙️
both being in the same room together is insane to see 💯
Ive learned so much about myself just listening to Mike talk real......thanks Mike
Em is that kid in school always said “like like like” 😂
You know that tingling sensation when you get scared? All the hairs in your body start stand up? It’s like fear gives you a momentum and adrenaline to fight back. I think that’s what made him that unstoppable fighter. Embrace fear
Shady on a normal day: Fluent AF.
Shady meets Mike: Stutters all the way through.
"I am scared, because I am a scary guy"
When you fear yourself...... thats the worst..
Mike's presence really made one of if not the greatest lyricist and wordsmith to find words for a simple question.
I can definitely relate to having an inner beast
Ok bro you wild af g
👹👹👹
I think talking and meeting Tyson would be just fucking awesome. He's probably the only famous person I'd actually care to meet. He's always just open and genuine.
I love that Mike has done the hard work to know himself in & out, so he can be actually truthful & genuine. It's a beautiful example of taking everything that was given to u & using it to find your way. It inspires me.
SEE YOU JUST NEVER KNOW I HAVE A MUCH GREATER APPRECIATION & UNDERSTANDING OF MR TYSON HIS STORIES ARE HEARTBREAKING TO ME
I guess em didn't expect that tyson would say he was scared..he was like "haaa".. That just shows how honest Mike is
Scared, to fear, to sadistic, (in the ring now) to confident, to phycotic, to glorious…..
Man, Tyson is the ideal male role model, dude went through hell, gathered strength through his trauma and used it for violence to a point where people feared and still fear him, he went to the lowest lows, got in tune with his own feelings, acknowledged his trauma, acknowledged his anger and no longer allowed them to control and dictate his life, he is indeed still an animal, but has such discipline, self-awareness and is so in tune with himself and his emotions that he just does not need to be the violent, brash man he was in his youth, that is a real man, not afraid to be himself and at peace with all sides of him.
