"Yeah, I'm in a winning position right now." That made me smile. Man has lived an amazing life -- spectacular highs and lows -- but he's come through it all.
He's got nothing more to prove. He is one of the greatest legends of the sport and is at peace with himself despite having suffered crushing lows in life. His podcast proves what a deep, thought provoking and humble guy he really is, open and honest, revealing his fears and insecurities, but with the uncharacteristic subtlety not associated with the 'Iron Mike' of old. Huge respect.
As someone who watched his whole career from '85 on, I never thought he would be in such a happy place. He seemed like one of the angriest people on the planet for most of his life, and all that seems gone now. Its really great to see.
The fact that Mike has already apologized to Evander publicly several times these past years but he’s still play along with Jimmy as if he never did… the man really is in a good good place
"I'm in the winning position right now". Man, I don't know why but that's such an awesome quote. Mike seems so happy right now and super open and down to earth. Not to mention he's got a great sense of humor. He really grew to be a great dude. One of my favorite humans living right now.
man, and it so easily could have turned the other way as it did for so many other athletes, most especially boxers, happy for him and how his life has turned out
His podcasts with Eben Britton were great. Not happy how that ended, as Eben is a real man of heart too. But damn, Mike found his heart in a frog, And he is the man now, inside and out. Heroes are born, Mike twice.
Took him awhile to find his place but he got there eventually. He’s actually a good person to reference whenever you think you’ve hit rock bottom and there’s no way back up.
@@rationalism_revival my father was the comptroller for CBS. I was on set for many shows like this… all scripted. It’s all about money via advertising. No one will advertise on an unscripted tv program. This includes “reality” tv and wrestling. All scripted. Advertisers run the show.
The way hes saying hes in the winning position in life now put a big smile on my face. This man went so much of shitty stuff from being used to everything and it's such a great time to see him being so well today. A real living legend indeed.
Many people criticize Mike don't understand Mike. They don't know what he's been through. He's served is time in prison. He lost a 6 year old daughter on a treadmill cord accident at home. He's come back from a lot.
@@KarloCarl That's why 'role model' exist because these are the people you can refer to in order to improve your life in general. Mike definitely worth to be noting on unlike many others. He is genuine and his past lesson impacted many peoples' lives out there. If you still on that mindset ''he has millions of $, he will do fine'', then you gotta open up your eyes more towards this world. Money can only do so much.
I think Jimmy did a terrible job with this interview but Mike is so kind and in a good space he just went along with it. Nothing but love and respect for Mike
Came to the comments just to see if anyone else thought this. He’s trying to bring the bad side of Mike out and treat Mike like a show puppet. The Mike Tyson on the impaulsive podcast was the best. The guys did a great of treating Mike like a normal human being. Joe rogan was good too
I was a kid fresh outa bootcamp and on deployment when this guy was rocking the world at 19!! friggin 19!!! unbelievable that he is still around enjoying life....as he should....lol
Mike, at an older age and turning his life around, is suitable for people to see who fall and can’t get back up. Glad he’s doing well and loving boxing again.
Yeah, but it is also a constant reminder for the poor guy, that he has lost a piece of his body, because of a random act of stupidity. Mr Tyson wouldn´t like anyone to destroy one of his Balls, and then offer a Ballsack-Gum for his own Profit - right?
@@chacky4krsma if you watched the fight you’d know mike bit the “poor guy” out of anger and frustration after being on the receiving end of dirty boxing and no calls being made on Holyfield
If you listen to Mike talk, he is the most brutally honest celebrity. At times watching his podcast, he gets ultra-real and makes your jaw drop. You would never see other stars admit to their faults and feelings as Mike does. It was also an absolute treat to see Mike and Roy Jones step in the ring for an exhibition bout. Even at Mike's age, he still has the speed and stamina of a tiger.
Normally jimmy tries too hard and sometimes in this you can see that but it was actually a natural flow bc Mike Tyson is so damn cool. Was a pretty good one
Mike is such a genuine man now. He was on top of the world and then went through some significant struggles and now is just enjoying life. Good for him.
As a child of the '70s and '80s, I first developed a love of combat sports by watching Mike Tyson tear human beings apart on a regular basis. Having witnessed Mike's rise and fall, I can say that there were many years that I thought my favorite fighter was destined for a very sad and early end, much like Sonny Liston. Iron Mike Tyson seems to have genuinely forgiven himself and reached a point in his life where he is happy to just be Mike.
I saw Mike years ago when he use to be in Miami in the 90's hanging out on the corner with guys that I knew in the city on 15 Ave . That was where everyone use to hang back in those days when they had money.
First plan on the new world order Georgia Guidestones is for 93% of all people to be disappeared. (That includes blacks, whites, Mexicans, earlier inhabitors, Asians, Christians...and even most Democrats.)
@@jshazgaming5953 then you haven't heard much stuff, because that's kind of true. Everyone remembers the bite, and of course his antics, baddest man on the planet. On fight night everyone knows if you miss the first minute of the fight, you miss the fight entirely LOL
@@kbanghart Sure, I guess there’s a big debate about Mike Tyson vs Muhammad Ali with them both in their prime because of his famous ear biting situation 🙄
Really annoys me that people like Jimmy keep bringing up things that clearly bother him from his past to get reactions. Mike's clearly grown as a person he handled it extremely well. I love Mike of today seeing him happy and fit again moving onto bigger and better things with humbleness
His comebacks were on point...the writers for this show really tried to play Tyson...bringing up the ear biting incident on more than 3 occasions makes it obvious...so many good things to say bout Tyson but they chose to go that route...sad
He listens, he takes jokes, he appreciates jokes. He realises the world is not out to get him and never was and he has not got to be against the world anymore. I really like this guy now, he has changed so much, I have followed him since day one of his fighting career, the change is remarkable and it isnt just age, it came because of many things.
I'm genuinely proud of Mike Tyson, that he's now comfortable in his own skin, and thus is an unknowing inspiration to many who are fighting demons in their lives, knowing that they can overcome them...and that the light at the end of the tunnel is worth chasing. Peace & Blessings to you, Champ 🏆
Man, I never missed a Tyson fight growing up, and it made me nearly giddy to watch the spectacle, from the ring entrance to the frequent massacres to the post-fight interview. But none of that, NONE of it, compares to how damn great I feel inside watching him smile and mean it.
Guy is happy and living well. He's not toxic any more nor does he entertain his past actions. He's lived and learned and has been judged. He's alright. Let him be him. All respect and appreciate the effort he's clearly gone through to get to that point.
Mike is a phenomenal example of personal transformation. What he has accomplished is truly astonishing, I mean his new avatar. It's not easy to ward off stinkers thrown at you from your past, with so much grace, calmness. Just love Mike for this. Live well, live happy, live long, Mike!!! - Sam
Mike has had a crazy life and the lessons he has learnt you can always see he makes improvements to himself. A true test of a real man to get over your own adversity and make yourself a little better every time.
Part of his grace is simply witnessing a black man, who has faced all this country throws at people like him, survive. This isn't excusing his criminal acts. But he has reformed himself and become an avatar of change. That's amazing.
He was desperately trying to annoy Mike, embarress him, shame him, provoke him. Superbly handled by the champ. A credit to humanity to respond so calmly and just let the attempts to derail him dissolve before impact
I agreed totally. If he had stability in his upbringing, he could've achieved many things academically ! Good genes 🧬 having said that.. I'm really happy for the champ, he seems to be in a better place in life ❤
Mike has changed alot. Such a witty funny calmer man. I always liked Mike, he's had some bad times, but now he seems like he's in a good place. Good on ya Mike
This is one of the sharpest, funniest, Tyson talkshow interviews I’ve ever seen. Man his even sharper than before. Get him on the show ones a month - he has million of stories!
Tbh Jake Paul would probably beat him now, a 60 year old man cannot keep with with a man in his prime, that would be like Micky asking to fight Rocky and expecting to win, even with all his experience he cannot match the speed and power.
The people I admire most are those who take up the struggle against their self. All of us who have struggled against a part of our self to exhaustion and despair, and have finally overcome, we are left humble and understanding of other people's struggles.
When you think of the Mike Tyson of the past and you see the Mike Tyson of the present, this really brings joy to your heart. He is in such a great place. It takes a brave person to admit to your faults, owe it, and turn your life around. I am so happy for him. You are still the GOAT Mike 👊
@@chrispudd1815 I agree. I feel he was always a kind soul at heart, he was just young and vulnerable. He got involved with people who were a bad influence and a promoter that took advantage and stole millions from him. Not to mention his personal issues. The things he went through would cause the most stable person to breakdown
@@chrispudd1815 true. the moment his father figure passed away, all those vultures around him were trying to take advantage on him and sadly they did. A young man can only do so much back then and it is very easy to make someone like him to stray away. So nice to see him steering back around the life and in a better position now without big $/ego etc.
Same here, had tears in my eyes through laughing. Me and my dad used to set our alarms for the early hours of the morning here in the UK to watch his fights in the '80's when they were broadcast for FREE! Great, great times and so glad I got to watch one of, if not the best, heavyweight boxers in modern times.
True. Most late night host wouldn't invite Mike on now a days much less ask the questions Jimmy did. Conan might be the only other host that I could see inviting Mike for an interview to promote his stuff.
Bruh why is he mentioning holyfield so much. Mike apologized years ago and they are on good terms so it's kind of annoying that Jimmy has to bring this up like 3 times in the interview
Mike's sense of humor and willingness to listen and consider different points of view have turned his life around. He's willing to be the butt of the joke, which makes the joke even funnier. He's really grown so much as a human being and had gained much respect from all around the world. Way to go Mike. Keep up the good work
I love who mike Tyson has become he really inspires me that one day i can get over my traumas and be happy because that man had such a tragic childhood and then losing everything and now he’s so well adjusted… i know if he gives me hope that i can be happy, then a lot of others must be inspired too. Thank you Mike honestly you just make me feel like if you can do it, my trauma is small compared to you, and if you can do it, i can do it too. Thanks Mike for sharing this part of your life with us, his podcast interviews are amazing too!!
Writing so openly about it means you`re definitely reflective about yourself. This is a very important step you've taken. Support from the other side of the world. I believe in you man ;-)
@Mr. Wonka style People like Mike life lesson and purpose is to reach people like you and I. Keep working on you brotha! 3 words Adapt,overcome,move on…guess that’s 4. Much love
Mike is honest, has a good heart, is funny as hell and of course in general and absolute monster in heavyweight-boxing - he is a legend, my motivation and idol as a kid, I hope I can meet him anytime in my life when I move from Europe to the US some day!
@@LiveYourLifeWithJoy because America is the land of opportunity and is exceptional in many ways, that's why. My cousin was born and raised in Germany and he just moved his family because the city they grew up in wasn't safe anymore.
@@timharper4246 you can't really compare crime % between USA and Europe lmao. And Europe has the best countries in the world to live on. Sorry, it's nothing personal. Just statistics. USA hasn't even got Free healthcare. That's some 3rd world problems, along with high crime, poverty and a very poor education system. Sorry bro. USA is better in some things, sure, but in average, is far from being the best... come visit Europe
Deep down he always had a good heart , every time he was knocking his opponents out he was always jumping first to see if they're ok and other small similar gestures that people weren't able to observe tells a great deal about a person how it truly is on the inside.. But he was surrounded by the wrong ppl when he was younger and that was a bad influence on him, always got his ego pushed by his so called friends and he had to keep up with them and maintain that bad boy image..they stood with him as much as he had a lotta of money and when he was at his worst everyone left him.. I'm happy for him now ,he is exactly how it was always supposed to be.. himself.
Yeah you got his character right, but the story is wrong. Late 80s Tyson was a different person. When Cus died, who basically was his father, and Don King came in, that’s when things changed. That’s when he was surrounded by the wrong people.
I love Mike, but if you read his book you’d understand those small gestures and helping people up after knocking them out, was a way of belittling his opponent showing he’s the dominant man. He learnt it from jack Dempsey - one of his idols
You gotta love Mike. The guy's really genuine. His funny answers outsmart the agenda within the questions being thrown at him while keeping his cool. Classy peek a boo interviews 😂
I give credit to Tyson for being as patient as he was with that kid on the plane. Mike obviously didn't want to fight the boy but only so much a man can take before he snaps. Those shots looked like lightwork for Mike. He probably could have knocked that scrub out unconscious if he wanted to. He has a good heart and overall such a chill dude. Takes a real man to control his aggressive side and stay humble. Respect 🙏
UA-cam boxing led by Mike Tyson is a good idea then Jake Paul cant pay people like Ben Askren to take a dive anymore. That fight was so embarrassing Ben looked like he had eaten at Mcdonalds for months instead of training. The first good punch from Jake Paul Ben let himself fall on the floor for the biggest paycheck he ever got. Must say maybe Ben has a future in acting as he is very good at it.
Mike Tyson is awesome. He's so honest about his vices, struggles, and his growth as a human being; if this interview had taken place a few years back, it might have gone *quite* a bit differently. 4:09
This man is pure evidence that anyone deep inside is a great human. Watch his podcast and watch how honest, interesting stories and interviews in fact are.., remember been through a lot.
Mikes a nice guy. But this is not evidence that anyone deep inside is a great man! That’s a ludicrous statement! Are the mass murderers out there good men deep down because Mike comes across well in this interview? No. Stop being an idiot
"Yeah, I'm in a winning position right now."
That made me smile. Man has lived an amazing life -- spectacular highs and lows -- but he's come through it all.
tbh that was so good to hear from Mike. He's lived his life and feel like he's finally at peace and happy

@@kbanghart Sure, I guess there’s a big debate about Mike Tyson vs Muhammad Ali with them both in their prime because of his famous ear biting situation 🙄
Mike tyson was a rat then and a rat now mike tyson will forever be snitch tyson
Complete and utter legend no other words can describe this man
Mike is funnier than a lot of comedians
because he's being real
Always been!! Fo real.Commentary after fights😭😭😭
he really is
and fascinating
Mike is hilarious with great timing!
He gives an amazing inspirational talk , it is astonishing. He is very bright and always has been.
Really annoys me that people like Jimmy keep bringing up things that clearly bother him from his past to get reactions. Mike's clearly grown as a person he handled it extremely well. I love Mike of today seeing him happy and fit again moving onto bigger and better things with humbleness
He looks as menacing as ever...and at this age...it's awesome!!
dude he made gummibears out f the situation wth you talking about
Yeah a supernatural force made him punch another man.
ikr man
Would it be scripted, maybe? It seems like Mike knows the questions in advance.
Mike. Well handled interview. You’re a legend
His comebacks were on point...the writers for this show really tried to play Tyson...bringing up the ear biting incident on more than 3 occasions makes it obvious...so many good things to say bout Tyson but they chose to go that route...sad
Legend
Mikes voice makes me so happy!
He listens, he takes jokes, he appreciates jokes. He realises the world is not out to get him and never was and he has not got to be against the world anymore. I really like this guy now, he has changed so much, I have followed him since day one of his fighting career, the change is remarkable and it isnt just age, it came because of many things.
he really is much calmer and has a sense of humor
Let's chalk it up to experience, he is an amazing guy who has come so far in life, can't help but to love the guy.
I always admired him , midst his lows and scandals too.
Agree ✌️🇦🇺
Mike changed simply because he chose too. We all have that ability, to change 100% everything about ourselves.
I love Mike. He takes jokes about himself very well and seem humble.
That man is unstable, he is constantly battling his demons, he can't be trusted 😂 unsafe
@@Advocate_INFJ 💀💀💀😂😂😂
@@Advocate_INFJ 😭
I love Mike
@@Advocate_INFJ he’s a fiend 💀
Jimmy did nothin but tried to pick on Mike about the ear incident and Mike handled it extremely well. Mike is a very good guy.
It was clearly set up to promote Mikes gum product which has the shape of a bitten ear
Once a Champion, always a Champion ! Iron Mike is chilled and cool and obviously enjoying life 😎
I'm genuinely proud of Mike Tyson, that he's now comfortable in his own skin, and thus is an unknowing inspiration to many who are fighting demons in their lives, knowing that they can overcome them...and that the light at the end of the tunnel is worth chasing.
Peace & Blessings to you, Champ 🏆
Amen Amen!!! ❣

@@imhim220 What's up with you people and snitches 😑 did he snitch on you?
Mike has always been hilarious lol. His stories never disappoint. Glad to hear him say he's in a winning position right now. 🤗💛💪
As long as he's not Charlie Sheen winning I'm all for it 👌

It's well documented that these shows are scripted.
@@jimaglenn of course. Words on a page are one thing, delivery and timing is another.
@@Pete_Finch you should check out the stand up special he did a few years back, it was amazing. Deep and comedic, it was a perfect balance!
Mike tyson said he was macrosnitching like the rat he always been
@@imhim220 Who'd he snitch on?
The greatest thing I have ever heard is Iron Mike saying His in "a winning position" in life now. Wow. So happy for my childhood hero.
Man, I never missed a Tyson fight growing up, and it made me nearly giddy to watch the spectacle, from the ring entrance to the frequent massacres to the post-fight interview. But none of that, NONE of it, compares to how damn great I feel inside watching him smile and mean it.
Guy is happy and living well. He's not toxic any more nor does he entertain his past actions. He's lived and learned and has been judged. He's alright. Let him be him. All respect and appreciate the effort he's clearly gone through to get to that point.
Not toxic? There’s video of him assaulting a man on a plane a few weeks ago. He’s a low life thug
Yes . He makes me so much impressed and inspired
Very well said.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏✌️
Absolutely! ✌🏽❤️🇨🇦
Mike is a phenomenal example of personal transformation. What he has accomplished is truly astonishing, I mean his new avatar. It's not easy to ward off stinkers thrown at you from your past, with so much grace, calmness. Just love Mike for this. Live well, live happy, live long, Mike!!! - Sam
oh. mr know it all. poor little fella.
You can tell by the way he addresses past and even current controversy. Head on with honesty. You can also see the look in his face.
You cannot help yourself from loving this guy (especially if you are old enough to really know), seriously! Talk about a comeback story of a lifetime!
Mike has had a crazy life and the lessons he has learnt you can always see he makes improvements to himself. A true test of a real man to get over your own adversity and make yourself a little better every time.
Part of his grace is simply witnessing a black man, who has faced all this country throws at people like him, survive. This isn't excusing his criminal acts. But he has reformed himself and become an avatar of change. That's amazing.
@@SuperRobertoClemente well said. Not every human can achieve what he did today.
It’s nice to see him doing well. He is a great story teller.
🤣
He was desperately trying to annoy Mike, embarress him, shame him, provoke him. Superbly handled by the champ. A credit to humanity to respond so calmly and just let the attempts to derail him dissolve before impact
How so? Didn’t seem that way.
I like Jimmy but totally agree with you he's trying to goad Mike here n Mike's too calm , love him
@@johnr5252he literally pulled up a clip of him beating someone on an airplane and asked him about it.
@@anonymoususer4866yeah but not in a negative way. He want trying to shake him. Everyone knows that guy deserves it.
He's learnt to think before he speaks nowadays definitely and wised up to their games, Mike's mint 😉
When Mike Tyson states "This could be very interesting".......
it sounds like a threat😁
I love this man. Mike shows us you can be tough AND humble and still be a man.

I agreed totally. If he had stability in his upbringing, he could've achieved many things academically ! Good genes 🧬 having said that.. I'm really happy for the champ, he seems to be in a better place in life ❤
This guys transformation is absolutely phenomenal.!!! Much Respect! 👊🏼
Great to see Mike doing so well, happy and healthy. And handling the interview with class, humour and humility. Legend.
Mike has changed alot. Such a witty funny calmer man. I always liked Mike, he's had some bad times, but now he seems like he's in a good place. Good on ya Mike
This is one of the sharpest, funniest, Tyson talkshow interviews I’ve ever seen. Man his even sharper than before. Get him on the show ones a month - he has million of stories!
You should watch him on Joe rogans podcast if you have the time
MF DOOM! My guy
You forgot about mike tyson being a snitch
@@imhim220 how is he a snitch?
"There's a big possibility I might be the UA-cam champion" .. i never knew this guy was so funny.
“Im macrodosing” 🤣🤣🤣
I am so happy for Mike! He looks so good...blessings brother!!
Wow the way Mike reacts so calmly and with such humor to Jimmy's patronizing comments is impressive 👏
Mike understand the situation that's why. He shows mercy and grace towards jimmy cause jimmy means no harm. You can detect certain stuff on people
Jimmy Kimmel is not the guy I thought he was. Very condescending and sly with this interview. Mike Tyson is a Legend. He deserved better than this.
I love how he can give props to other fighters. He's just so genuine. Love his new mindset and that he's in a good place in life. He deserves it!!
Tbh Jake Paul would probably beat him now, a 60 year old man cannot keep with with a man in his prime, that would be like Micky asking to fight Rocky and expecting to win, even with all his experience he cannot match the speed and power.
@@pauljohnson6019 George foreman: m I a joke to u?
@@pauljohnson6019 Jake Paul isn’t skilled enough.
@@truthseeker6306 He's more than skilled to take Tyson, Tyson is nearly 60 now, Paul will whoop him.
Nobody gave mike tyson props for being a snitch
That New York accent stays strong. What a great and funny interview. As someone who has also turned their life around, I really admire the man.
The people I admire most are those who take up the struggle against their self.
All of us who have struggled against a part of our self to exhaustion and despair, and have finally overcome, we are left humble and understanding of other people's struggles.
Mike is cool, funny, crazy and scary all at the same time 😂
Mike is Mike man! So cool, so funny, so crazy and soooo F'ing scary!!
This man is legendary. Nothing but respect for him
When you think of the Mike Tyson of the past and you see the Mike Tyson of the present, this really brings joy to your heart. He is in such a great place. It takes a brave person to admit to your faults, owe it, and turn your life around. I am so happy for him. You are still the GOAT Mike 👊
remarkable story to be who he was and then do be this person now...unbelievable
He was always the same man. It’s sad that bad people got hold of him
@@chrispudd1815 I agree. I feel he was always a kind soul at heart, he was just young and vulnerable. He got involved with people who were a bad influence and a promoter that took advantage and stole millions from him. Not to mention his personal issues. The things he went through would cause the most stable person to breakdown
@@chrispudd1815 true. the moment his father figure passed away, all those vultures around him were trying to take advantage on him and sadly they did. A young man can only do so much back then and it is very easy to make someone like him to stray away. So nice to see him steering back around the life and in a better position now without big $/ego etc.
@@kristenbarker29 exactly. Couldn't agree more!
Mike seems prepared for any questions by adding "I've never considered that"...that was great!
Mike prepared to be snitching
I was actually smiling all the way through this video. What a great man and so relaxed these days. GOAT.
Same here, had tears in my eyes through laughing. Me and my dad used to set our alarms for the early hours of the morning here in the UK to watch his fights in the '80's when they were broadcast for FREE! Great, great times and so glad I got to watch one of, if not the best, heavyweight boxers in modern times.
Tyson is fine. But, I'm sorry, Ali is the GOAT.
I love where Mike Tyson is in his life now, so happy and back on top of the world, I love his sense of humour.
Still patient, still witty and intelligent. Love watching Tyson interact. What a guy, what a life he's lived.
Jimmy asked the questions we could never ask, but he looked him in the eye like a man. Mike showed true professionalism and humility. Kudos all around
True. Most late night host wouldn't invite Mike on now a days much less ask the questions Jimmy did. Conan might be the only other host that I could see inviting Mike for an interview to promote his stuff.
What?
@@rugr82day what? Huh? Yeah but...wait... What?
@@rugr82day I could see letterman having him with true questions before Conan
Bruh why is he mentioning holyfield so much. Mike apologized years ago and they are on good terms so it's kind of annoying that Jimmy has to bring this up like 3 times in the interview
Mike's sense of humor and willingness to listen and consider different points of view have turned his life around. He's willing to be the butt of the joke, which makes the joke even funnier. He's really grown so much as a human being and had gained much respect from all around the world. Way to go Mike. Keep up the good work
“ That's not me “🤣😂😂
You just can't not like Mike. He has such a pure soul, always wants to spread love and compassion with the world.
Wrong. You can most surely dislike Mike.
I agree he grew up hard which can translate to a life of compassion when you are financially secure
The comment from justified i'm glad it was said
Robin Givens may not agree.
Hell ya this dude continues to touch the world with his transparent heart and soul. Thanks for sharing Mike, we all need to hear it!
I love who mike Tyson has become he really inspires me that one day i can get over my traumas and be happy because that man had such a tragic childhood and then losing everything and now he’s so well adjusted… i know if he gives me hope that i can be happy, then a lot of others must be inspired too. Thank you Mike honestly you just make me feel like if you can do it, my trauma is small compared to you, and if you can do it, i can do it too. Thanks Mike for sharing this part of your life with us, his podcast interviews are amazing too!!
Eat 'shrooms. Snoke the toad. Drop acid. Drugs are the answer.
Peace.
You're trauma is not small brother. Trauma of any kind leaves scars. Wishing you peace and happiness.
Sun him have milions dollars than happy him that's y think!!!
Writing so openly about it means you`re definitely reflective about yourself. This is a very important step you've taken.
Support from the other side of the world.
I believe in you man ;-)

People like Mike life lesson and purpose is to reach people like you and I. Keep working on you brotha! 3 words Adapt,overcome,move on…guess that’s 4. Much love
I like Mike. It’s so refreshing to see his transformation into a more patient and jovial soul.
The turnaround this man made in his life some people wish they could do......like a BOSS!!!!!
Mike is honest, has a good heart, is funny as hell and of course in general and absolute monster in heavyweight-boxing - he is a legend, my motivation and idol as a kid, I hope I can meet him anytime in my life when I move from Europe to the US some day!
Please stay in Europe. There is nothing going on in US but bunch a killings every day.
Bruh, moving from Europe to USA? Why? Lmao
@@LiveYourLifeWithJoy because America is the land of opportunity and is exceptional in many ways, that's why. My cousin was born and raised in Germany and he just moved his family because the city they grew up in wasn't safe anymore.
@@timharper4246 you can't really compare crime % between USA and Europe lmao.
And Europe has the best countries in the world to live on. Sorry, it's nothing personal. Just statistics.
USA hasn't even got Free healthcare. That's some 3rd world problems, along with high crime, poverty and a very poor education system. Sorry bro. USA is better in some things, sure, but in average, is far from being the best... come visit Europe
he beat his wife .... oh yes he has a good heart
Deep down he always had a good heart , every time he was knocking his opponents out he was always jumping first to see if they're ok and other small similar gestures that people weren't able to observe tells a great deal about a person how it truly is on the inside.. But he was surrounded by the wrong ppl when he was younger and that was a bad influence on him, always got his ego pushed by his so called friends and he had to keep up with them and maintain that bad boy image..they stood with him as much as he had a lotta of money and when he was at his worst everyone left him.. I'm happy for him now ,he is exactly how it was always supposed to be.. himself.
Dude you write so philosophical but u clearly don’t know anything about mike Tyson 😂
Yeah you got his character right, but the story is wrong. Late 80s Tyson was a different person. When Cus died, who basically was his father, and Don King came in, that’s when things changed. That’s when he was surrounded by the wrong people.
I love Mike, but if you read his book you’d understand those small gestures and helping people up after knocking them out, was a way of belittling his opponent showing he’s the dominant man. He learnt it from jack Dempsey - one of his idols
@@jorgeat123 My point remains that he lost his way post Cus' death. Call his gesture what you want, my point stands.
@@jorgeat123 I love Mike too, im just glad Sam Colt made us equal!!! 😆
You gotta love Mike. The guy's really genuine. His funny answers outsmart the agenda within the questions being thrown at him while keeping his cool.
Classy peek a boo interviews 😂
I give credit to Tyson for being as patient as he was with that kid on the plane. Mike obviously didn't want to fight the boy but only so much a man can take before he snaps. Those shots looked like lightwork for Mike. He probably could have knocked that scrub out unconscious if he wanted to. He has a good heart and overall such a chill dude. Takes a real man to control his aggressive side and stay humble. Respect 🙏
You said “probably could have knocked that scrub out”
He absolutely could not have he was trying his hardest.

“UA-cam Boxing Championship” led by Mike Tyson sounds like a good idea
UA-cam boxing led by Mike Tyson is a good idea then Jake Paul cant pay people like Ben Askren to take a dive anymore. That fight was so embarrassing Ben looked like he had eaten at Mcdonalds for months instead of training. The first good punch from Jake Paul Ben let himself fall on the floor for the biggest paycheck he ever got. Must say maybe Ben has a future in acting as he is very good at it.
