"I don't wanna say I stabbed somebody, but I had an altercation." -Tyson. Love this man
😂😂😂
Convicted rapist
I love tyson
He also robbed U-God's (from Wu-Tang Clan) mother before he started his boxing career. Guy was a menace back in the day but chose the right path afterwards.
@@floridamanbear5522 you think stabbing someone is manly?
When Mike says “someone cared about me” that just hit like a ton of bricks. It’s such a true statement, we all seek that, the fulfillment of being a person and feeling worth from the person we respect and love. Mike you’re a wise man. Thanks Champ.
Being loved as a child makes a monster difference in life. Nothing to lose leads to the gangs and streets. Knowing someone loves you overcomes the sense of "nothing to lose"
@@gaston8512 Exactly! If someone tells you they love you and care about you, would you be out in the street causing trouble for yourself? Probably not!❤
yes i agree that caring always strikes a nerve its almost like somebody saying i love you without saying it , was watching a movie :: The Grandmaster " and the Grandmasters daughter told the champion " I Care about you Mr IP "" was a powerful scene
Beautifully said Mark
This is so lame, dude.
"My disadvantage was my advantage”, I love this quote. Thank you Mike Tyson.
That quote only serves the uber talented and ruthless. Disadvantage very rarely benefits the disadvantaged.
@@dcee6670 Not true at all. I was severely disadvantaged and have a successful life. I'm not famous or "uber talented." But I am no longer disadvantaged because of those experiences. I know a lot of people like that. I'm not saying disadvantage people don't remain in those situations as the progress in life but to say it only serves the uber talented and ruthless is a lie.
@14720509 That's not a lie. When you think of the word ruthless you only associate it with callousness or lack of empathy. You have to be ruthless in work ethic and discipline. Make sacrifices and deny yourself of things that will not help you attain your goal. The person is right. Often times disadvantaged people feel they are too far down to ever get out of the situation they are in. You have to have a ruthless mindset that says, "I'm getting out of this situation no matter what, whatever I have to do(within the realm of legality) that's what I'm going to do." Sadly most people don't have that mindset or want to take the necessary, and hard steps to better themselves.
Iron Mike, what a national treasure.
Tyson Fury would beat him.
I have grown up adoring the guy!
@@bobbykiefer4306different eras. And no.
mike is of the italians
If rapists are treasures in the USA, oh ok.
Tyson has become the wise grandfather we all need.
strangely enough....
@@ThomasWBaldwin Extremely insightful, shows his mental development and empathy are being fine tuned. Either a great speech writer or he's geuinely learning third person empathetic cognition.
@@shibmobileverse468 DMT can make one very vulnerable.
@@shibmobileverse468 didja ever box?
Whod've thunk it.
Tysons story is really inspiring. After you scratch the surface his character and life get pretty deep. Love the guy.
Rapist....but love the guy
💯
A man 50 times smarter than people think he is. My number one sports idol, ever. Long live Mike Tyson!
He is not smarter, he is wiser. That is just another level man. Forget about being smart.
Mike Tyson teaches us what we really need more in this world - HUMILITY
What? I'd love to see what would happen if you try to humiliate Mike Tyson.
Humbleness
@@naggedd Thats not the same thing bro
@@naggedd Lol Humility and humiliate are not even close to the same thing; Humility means humbleness it's used to describe someone that doesn't let their ego or position in life go to their head no matter how "great" they become.
Amen... Especially in this current world ofnarcissism and me me me and the gimmie gimmies!
The Champ shows you don't need an Ivy League education to gain wisdom!
He always gets incredibly emotional talking about his past.
That's why I love him he's a very genuine person.
This just goes to show the importance of having a positive male role model in a young man's life. I'm glad Mike has grown so much throughout the years, he really is a humble guy.
His story fits like an ancient myth.
Lost in hell, found and guided by a wise sage, achieves greatness after the sage dies, falls into hell again, and in the end, redemption.
And he only knew Cus for 6 years before he passed away... That's how much of a difference it makes. Just six years of his life as a young man with a male role model in it and look how much it still affects him. He can hardly talk about it without choking up STILL
Mike Tyson has always been a champ to me. When I was just a little girl in Brooklyn, he came to visit a childhood friend of his who was friends with my mother. I was only 6 years old yet I remember clearly how big and strong but extremely gentle of a man he was. He picked me up and let me sit on his motorcycle and called me a princess. Every time I hear people say bad things about him, I realize how misunderstood he is/was. Children can sense “good” people from “bad” people, and I always felt he had a wonderful heart despite tough moments in his life. I’m proud to say he’s a hometown hero!
he is the best
Great story!
Love it! Thanks for sharing 💕
I met Mike in Cleveland. I was 5 years old. I was at the barbershop getting a haircut. Everybody poured outside the barbershop in aww. Mike was sitting in a candy apple red 1968 drop top Impala. With like 6 girls in the car. My barber mr. Carson took me over to Mike. I didn't really know who he was. He said boy do you know who this is? I kind of shrugged and he said" this is the heavy weight champion of the world. Make a muscle mike. His arms were huge. I poked his bicep and it didn't feel human hard as rock. Mike was smiling gold teeth shining. I was a child and his energy was undeniable he had the GLO
what a blessing you received! thank you for sharing :)
Great quote about being nobody and not being offended . Thank you ❣️
Yep without our massive self importance we become invincible
@@apnwu369 Well said - humble to the core
@@apnwu369 I am reading a book called "Ego is the enemy" by Ryan Holiday, really recommended it!
Read the book
Become a loser to become a winner - by brand on green. Same mentality.
"I loved it, someone cared about me" most people don't realize something as simple as caring about a man can inspire greatness
One of the best interviews ever. Love Mike Tyson.
I love Mike Tyson. He has a truly beautiful soul and is a genuinely unique person. Once in an eternity
I was about to say the same thing
Mike Tyson is definitely a fascinating character
I wish my dad could've lived long enough to see Mike now. He always loved the guy and we NEVER missed one of his fights.
His podcast show is amazing. I’m an 80s kid so Mike Tyson’s Punchout for NES was my introduction to him.
Dude is actualy a role model. He has learn so much and is so humble. A model for recovery.
I agree. That Mike guy seems pretty cool too.
True
Oof
Didn't he bite off Holyfield's ear?
Excuse me Sir/Madam
Are you saved?
If you died tonight are you going to heaven?
Jesus loves you too
Much respect for Mike Tyson, not so much for what he accomplished in the ring, but for the person he has evolved into.
Why no respect to what he accomplished in the ring? Even if u don't like the sport... U gotta respect that he is arguably the best to ever do it; as everyone signed up willingly and fought within the same rule structure.
Gotta respect both, It's part of his journey
@@oground I did not say I had no respect for what he accomplished in the ring. I was saying I have more respect the for person he has evolved into than I do the ring accomplishments.
@@oground"u gotta respect", LMFAO, my man, you haven't learned respect is earned.... And, why would someone respect a rapist?...🤷🥲
Tyson's quote is a gem: You are offended when you think you are somebody, but not offended when you remember you are nobody. Poetic like Muhammad Ali.
As a Life long fan of Mike Tyson I wish more young people would pay attention to him he is a very wise man.
I agree. He overcame a troubled childhood with many demons to become the man he is.
@@ID30394 to go on to be a convicted rapist. Great dream kids.
Didn't he bite off Holyfield's ear?
@@bobbykiefer4306 the hood was coming out.🤣 No one cares about that dudes ear anymore.
@@bobbykiefer4306 why would you ask commie?
Mike Tyson represents ALL AMERICANS with struggle and hard work, as a brother i am proud of Mike Tyson and what he represents to the Black Community as well. Dispite some shortcomings, he had guts, balls of steel, and the scariest right hand in all human history. My brother lived the TRUE American dream, cant ask a man for much more. Rock on Mike, stay healthy.
The cokehead rapist who bit off Evander Holyfield's ear?
He’s a rapist…
Actually it was his left hand that was the scariest, Left to the stomach then left uppercut to the face in less then half a second..
Tyson is a success story. His humility is endearing. Hey, that is a pretty good title of a biography about Tyson. "Endearing Endurance". You can have it. Write the book and get rich.
Tyson Fury would beat Mike Tyson.
This man is the best. It doesn't matter who can beat him in a fight or not. He truly is an an inspiration and only seems to get more humble, lovable and relatable.
yup
Agreed
@@FUNNYMANERICWHITE "Funny!!!!!"....🤣
@@ThomasWBaldwin hahahahhahaha yeah I’m the best
"An inspiration"...
😂😂😂😂😂😂
As a man that was the butt of so many jokes, he's so much more intelligent and wiser than those individuals ever could hope to be!
When I think I'm somebody I get offended, then I remember I'm no one and nothing offends me. Super powerful.
Dude was at one point at the pinnacle of fame and riches and then saw the lows of being a prisoner. Prison has a way of turning some wild men into wise men.
Mike's honestly is clearer than daylight.
Love this ❤️
A breath of fresh air from the daily chaos.
Hello
Nice comment, do you mind friendship
The greatest boxer of all time. He has overcome so much. And is in a good place now. So great to see.
He's great, but the best? Not even close imo. Prime Tyson is so hard to compare because his prime was so short and explosive, but I still think prime Rocky, Ali and Lewis would comfortable have him beat
@@DMG118I agree and I'm a huge Tyson fan but I'm not delusional like a lot of his fans with this whole he was the goat or he was unbeatable in his prime nonsense cause I can name plenty of boxers who could've taken him down in his so called prime once again I'm a huge fan but I like being honest at the same time
I remember a quote from my Dad who had a very deep canadian accent while watching one of boxing matches during the 1980's . " He may talk funny but he's a very smart kid don't let it fool you "
“Hey, know what I loved it. Someone cared about me.” That right there is amazing.
This is Tysons best interview ever.
I beg to differ. I am a hugh fan and all of his interviews and documentaries are fascinating.
All his interviews the last few years have been pure wisdom and brutal honesty of life lessons for all.
@@rchw8052 True.
Looking back into the 90’s and watching Mikes shenanigans I never thought I’d be sitting her in 2022 getting goosebumps listening to him speak. He is a truly inspirational man.
He's honestly a philosopher and he doesn't even know it Mike Tyson is a National Treasure and we should literally make a TV show for him to talk to all the young people at least once a week cuz they need his help. Let's get his conversations in front of these young kids!
His podcast is excellent
every time this guy speaks, my heart stops from some reason..
Are you in love Tyler
@@jackiereamy4871 Jackie Reamy. What a stupid name.
indeed wisdom
Mike! Fancy smashing belly's at Arizona Mills😀
You were not looking where you were going either was I
He grew up in the projects of NY and came out of that by pure will. My grandfather came here with nothing and I mean NOTHING. He did some awful things but he changed our entire family 's future. That's AMERICA 🇺🇲🇺🇲
The passion Tyson has always brings out his emotions, and he is always fighting back tears. I always tear up when I see this man express his emotions, its just so real.💯
That was honestly one of the best Tyson interviews I've seen. Granted I haven't seen them all, but that was awesome. Tyson looked so comfortable and down to earth there, like he was really connecting.
Mike has had some dark periods. Without condoning his behaviour, everybody deserves a second chance. Given the options he had as a young man I'd say he has done the best with what he was given. I will always have respect for a man who admits his faults but strives to become greater than his demons.
And I'll try not to condon your behavior also
Mike has come full circle..losing Cus really hurt him..Cus was everything to Mike and inspite of losing his guidance Tyson became World Champion. I believe Mike wouldn't have had all the personal troubles if Cus didn't die.
Maybe if Cus didn't died Mike wouldn't have had all these troubles in his life but hey... best way to learn and get wisdom is sometimes by doing mistakes and learn from them. We must all come to a point where we recognize ourselves as sinners to believe in a Savior. His faith in God grew when he was in prison. When you feel empty and like a failure, nothing else can fill you like God himself and heal your wounds like He can.
Cus still lives on through Mike.
@daywalker8326 Nobody is saying that Mike didn't make some mistakes along the way, but he paid his debts to society, righted his wrongs, and grew into a better person.
@daywalker8326 Sure, it would be different, but it's not, so I guess I don't care. I like him now, and that is all there is to it. Like I said, he did his time. If you think he deserves more justice or punishment, then go right ahead and tell him to his face instead of being a keyboard warrior about it. But you and I both know you would never have the balls to say it to him, lol.
@@daywalker8326 you disrespected yourself by acting the way you do.
7:15 Another great quote from Tyson. Pure humility.
Mike Tyson is by far one of my favorite celebrities/athletes. He is such an inspiration to people of all ages. His messages and wisdom have made a positive impact on my own life and probably a million other peoples lives too. He is a perfect example of the fact that even if you are in a disadvantage growing up, you can still find success if you work hard and believe in yourself.
Ever heard the story of the "Chained Elephant"? Adult Circus Elephants were once chained to the ground with a chain only big enough to retrain them at their youth size. When the elephants grow up, they are strong enough to easily break their own chain, but the creature does not know it. It is trained to believe their chain is too strong to break. I am starting to see that I am like a cichlid in a giant aquarium and that our reality is not at all what we think it is. Thank you Tyson for your lovely story.
Cus was like Mickey. Just like him. Mike is truly blessed to have someone like Cus come into his life.
I never thought I'd say this but Mike Tyson has become a national treasure through his experience of failures and successes in life. I also always felt bad for him when his daughter died, it took a lot out of him.
A man who KEPT GROWING as an individual TO THIS DAY, to this minute.
I love this guy.
Tyson is very very inspiring.
God bless you Iron Mike, the Dynamite Kid!
🤜🏽💥
The man is still standing
Him & Elton John
@@Under_Sky_Third_Gaia Thought we were talking about men here😘
That quote from Tyson about being somebody and being nobody is a quote that I’m gonna live by it’s a actually a quote that can. Change the world it’s that deep
Mike as we get older we realize where we were as a young man and the mistakes we made and now we guide other young men. I'm retired from the military and I joined at 17 right out of high school not a clue what to do or where to go but I knew where I was and that was not a good place. My mom raised 4 alone and we all made an impact on our lives I'm not rich or famous I'm the man that was not in my life and that is better than him and of course that's all I wanted to be. I hope the very best for you and may god watch over you in your life. Young men today are losing their way and we need to guide them or we will all fail.
How important it is to have a mentor as a young man, ask Mike.
Wow, this is incredible 👏🏾 Tyson on Tucker Carsons show.
He became a champion like no other. What a gift to humanity. His greatest contributions may be yet to come. Mr Cuss played a major part, but Mikes turnaround is amazing.
There were much better champions than Mike.
@@MaccaveliPL but none more amazing or unique
@@davidmccaffery7977 there were some more amazing and unique as well.
I really like old, wise, humble Mike Tyson. I think I can learn a lot from him.
Love Mike. What a great interview this was
Mikey Tyson is as Real as it gets 🙂
When Mike remembers Cus and says : " Wow, love is powerful!" .👏👏👏💪😎🇺🇲
"This guy showed me love, and wow, love is powerful." - Mike Tyson
The work tucker is doing is awesome. This is life changing. Be safe and keep up the excellent work.
Glad to see Mike Tyson in this interview , wish it was the whole interview 🏴🇬🇧
The two G.O.A.Ts of all time Ali and Iron Mike Tyson. Tyson is the perfect example of being so mentally strong and so willing to work hard for your dream that his tough childhood was not going to hold him back. Youngsters these days should all look at what and who Tyson built himself to be he wasn't a weak victim like a lot of these kids are today that are too lazy to work hard and achieve success. Tyson didn't whine about his life he made the choice to change it and become the champion of the world. What an amazing person
The power of a good mentor, a goal & the opportunity to succeed is key to success. What an amazing man.
I love Mike Tyson... a true spirit.
What a legend
“Wow, love is powerful!” - Iron Mike
bravo Tucker
and Mike Tyson once again delivered a gem "Sometimes I get it in my head and think I'm somebody and then I'm easily offended and when I know I'm nobody I could never be offended". 7:15
A work in progress and he's made a lot of progress.
Iron Mike what an intelligent man
Wise man.
Fascinating. Been thru a lot of experiences, no doubt. Plus & Minus. Spent a lot of time here in Metro Phx. So glad to see this interview & this "human" side of him. Entertaining guy, to say the least. The man definitely seems to have truly found himself & perhaps the meaning of it all. So happy for him & to see this terrific interview. Long live Mike Tyson.
Michael Tyson has lived the life of 100 people. From such a troubled scary environment growing up and rising to the top of his profession. His experiences have clearly given him priceless instincts on human nature and an intelligence and wisdom that few can acquire.
I love listening to this guy and how much he's come around over the years! I love his perceptions on things and it's hard not to find one of the best fighters ever to by now also become quite endearing whenever he speaks!
A guy who while always a champ is finally finding so many more loving him all the more because of the humility he's now acquired over the years.
Mike rocks!
The cokehead rapist who bit off Evander Holyfield's ear? Looking back I never heard of the people he beat in the 80's.
God comes 1st in this mans life, and he has toppled mountains we haven’t even seen. God loves this guy! 🎉
Greatness and Humble what a combination
The complexity of his simplicity, should be inspirational to all those in search of hope & change.
Don't let your environment or situation define you.
This is why cancel culture needs to die. With it there's no grace, mercy, or forgiveness. Tyson has grown in wisdom and maturity throughout the years. He had his faults and flaws just like we all did, but he's become a better man today. I'm very excited I'll be meeting him next month.
Well said! Excellent point. Where are you meeting him?
Knowledge is learned, Wisdom is gain... Mike Tyson ascended, he is a Philosopher 🙏🏽✨
When i think in my head that I'm somebody , i easily gets offended , but i think that I'm nobody i don't get offended ...
Mike Tyson is a pass-genius..
Mike is just raw as it gets.
Thank you Tucker for such an excellent interview . I don't think many people know about Mikes back ground , his early life and he has had an amazing life . Also Mike shows what a top athlete a person can become if you hunger for it and apply yourself to reaching your goals . I always enjoy listening to Mike , considering what a brutal fighter he was , his honesty is way above that of the other so called " celebrities " we have to endure nowadays .
Great, honest, humble man.
Its powerful "When I think am somebody am offended, when I remember am no body am not" Pride and ego when out of the window you become your own best friend and true to yourself
Mike is the realist person I have ever listened too. The guy is so deep
Love Mike,true legend.
I've met Mike a few times... What an awesome fun dude to be around.
Where did you meet him? I’d love to hear! Thanks
Mike is so incredibly insightful and intelligent. He could be a motivational speaker, or life coach.
That quote was special and worth living by
Mike Tyson is one of my all-time favorite philosophers. Some of his quotes are always rattling around in my mind.
Didn't he bite off Holyfield's ear?
Mike Tyson is and will always be the best in my book nothing but mad respect and love for the man all around great American God bless Mike Tyson
Tyson Fury would beat him. Sorry he isn't the best.
@@bobbykiefer4306 and again
@@thodstagshorn1198 Did I lie?
@@bobbykiefer4306 Lying has nothing to do with it. It's your dull dipshit opinion. You can't help yourself but offer it over and over again.
Tyson is the man. Great story of life and sports.
The story of Mike and Gus Cus D'mato is really amazing.
When I think I'm somebody I'm offended...so true
I can relate to this. My dad lost a lot of money when the stock market crashed in the 90's.
I had to work for everything from the bottom up.
It was a blessing in disguise. Today, I have achieved happiness and success, on my own terms.
It strengthened my faith, immensely. Where the world tells you there isn't a way, there is a way with God.
I even received a health miracle.
God is good to those who love Him.
Somebody is spiritually awakened...and nobody is its witness. Mike Tyson is a gem.
Mike is proof you can evolve and get out of a bad situation with the right mentorship and the willingness to learn and work hard. I know there are so many young men who he has helped and he doesn’t even know them.
The media has always portrayed Mike as dumb and reckless. But after listening to him I realized he's one of the smartest people around. Awesome stuff. Keep on inspiring people Mike. God bless you.
Listen to his interview with Joe Rogan. That is very interesting.
@@iamfrom7095 will do
Mike Tyson the modern day warrior yeah there are faults but I have never heard Tyson lie about life and I was a huge Tyson fan in the late 80s early 90s but I honestly like the bloke now, he is fascinating and a great father to his kids.
I could listen to Mike talk for hours.
Tyson has some of the most profound philosophical insights.
We have lost the respect of our kids. Listen to him describe the healthy fear and obedience they showed to his first coach. He loved him because he cared and believed in him but they sought his approval and did not want to disappoint him. That’s what kids lack today. No respect for teachers, police officers, parents, grandparents, etc. I blame myself as well. I’m a parent. We are too soft on our kids. We are raising weak adults. We need to change 🙁
I agree 100%. My parents raised me like a "king kid", doing almost anything I wanted and having everything I needed. Oh dear oh dear let me tell you life slapped me in the face hard. I've suffered many depressions... but, everything was in God's plan. I found God in my distress and I hope that if I will ever be a parent one day, to raise my kids with love and teach them to have respect for others as themselves.
Every good parents want the best for their children. Sometimes it means to let them grow and let them walk their own path, but sometimes it can be to give them the best advices you can. That advice can be physical too. I've never been physically corrected by my parents and wish they would have done it at some point. Once my friend's father slapped me in the face. I was shook ! 😧 But it worked ! To this day I've never laughed about another person being obese. Most of the time kids are doing evil without being conscient about it. I think it's the role of the parents to teach them what is right and what is wrong.
I think there is great wisdom in what Mike said about not talking all the time. I am the best parent when I simply sit, listen, and don't judge immediately. I withhold my opinions unless it is something that I need to speak on. I think this gives off a sense of wisdom and stoicism to a child who is trying to figure you out.
I definitely don't do it all the time, but when it happens, I notice much more respect and even love from my children.
We don't respect our elders or superiors anymore cuz our generation is smart enough to see older people for what they really are: Old fogies with a deep seeded fear of growing old and forgotten who continue the cycle of abuse just to stroke their egos and to give themselves a sense of self worth their parents and superiors failed to give them in their youth. "Its just the way things are" is an excuse I've heard from almost everybody older then me when I ask why why anybody justifies their hateful behavior towards things that are different. The younger generations want things to change and listening to old farts like you people will only continue this godawful cycle.
Ya know, I really like Mike Tyson. Basically for all the reasons mentioned during the introduction, but also because he wears that big heart of his right on his sleeve where it should be. As terrifying as he is he's also a really sweet spirited person completely devoid of any fear of being vulnerable. I'd love to meet the guy.
Wow. Mike has lived so much life.
I have always loved Mike Tyson. He is a man's man.
