On the other hand, I feel a kind of admiration for this mildly nervous, but extremely honest and authentic person that Mike has become.

    This guy did one of the best interviews I've ever seen with Tyson.
    People have ask him allot of this stuff before over the years, but I've not seen anyone ask all these questions in one sit down.
    Mostly Mike looked calm and not irritated by all the questions, which I think the interviewer gets credit for creating that atmosphere.
    But either way, it can't be easy sitting there asking personal questions and watching Tyson get emotional, there would always be a sense of what if I'm the guy Mike flips out on. Lol, not a fun thought.
    Still wondering if anyone will ever get Mike to talk about his rape conviction. That would be the interview of all time.

      If someone sexually assaulted a female in your family (niece), how would you react?.
      Admirable restraint was shown by Teddy as he'd be in jail now had he pulled the trigger.
      Mike definitely touched her up, you can see him trying to manipulate the interviewer by saying how do you know?
      You don't pull a gun on someone because they're better than you in the gym & Cus did choose Mike over Teddy as Cus knew he had a gold mine in Mike.
      Just a shame he never lived long enough to cash in.

    The energy Tyson has is incredible. He makes you shiver in your voice if you disagree with him, or if he feels that you are trying to blackmail him. Great personality, and sometimes misunderstood. He's tired of talking about the past and all the things he did. Let him live, he tries to be a good man by listening to how he speaks about things.

  • @kepler240
    @kepler240 3 роки тому +3

    Tyson seems like an ok guy. No more anger issues, which I think were caused by him feeling like people taking advantage of him in the past. He just seems so calm in these interviews. Good for him.

  • @JoeJacksonGT3

    The only suggestion I have is when you interview someone like this, bring some positivity into your questioning. Like Mike said, it's his past. We all want to have some insight into it, but I'd love to hear what his thoughts are about upcoming fighters, athletes, is he coaching anyone etc..

    Mike speaks in symbols and metaphors better than anyone. He is a savant IMO. I don't know exactly what his brilliance is, but it is there.
    No one, besides maybe OJ Simpson, has had a more acute fall from grace in our recent history. I think part of his brilliance is his ability to reflect on his most damaging self-induced problems, actually learn and gain wisdom from these issues, and then to be able to articulate it in a way that most people can digest it

He has always mentioned his mental disorders (bipolar and manic depressive with underlying rage and anger issues). Dude is a mastermind in a way...you can even always see and hear the rage and control issues in his eyes. At the same time he speaks brilliantly. Pulls you right in (charm). Scary guy!!! But we all still like him for some reason. 🤷🏽‍♀️

    The real Mike Tyson is a incredibly intellegent, well read individual with a amazing ability to learn different skills. One of them was boxing. Intimidating people was part of his pesona. The real tyson is probably a articulate savant who would rather spend his time with his head stuck in a book.

    Despite the fact that Mike is doing much better these days, it's still risky to take him down memory lane. There is a lot of pain back there for him. He knows he was ill and he knows he did some unpleasant things. No need to remind him of it. He says over and over that he is a different person. He says it because he wants it to be true.
