    Mitch Green originally lived on 175th St & Anthony Ave and was in a small gang called the Black Warriors before joining the 18th division of the Black Spades in that area. Then he moved to 1760 Watson Ave in Bronxdale Projects, the home and 1st division of the Black Spades, one of the largest street gangs in NYC at the time. He also lived in Harlem for a time in the early 70's

    “He is in bad condition” he is 67 this is how older black men talk. My father is 73 and he speaks better than this, but I will tell you, him boxing, having a bullet in him that can potentially cause lead poisoning, and hitting himself in the head with a bullet that exploded, he is talking very very well. God bless him!

    I know Mitch Green very well and there was a time even if he was rambling you understood what he was saying. He does have a solid story. There were lot of promising heavyweight amateur fighters in his time. Tim Witherspoon, Michael Dokes, Greg Page, Tony tubbs to name a few who were all world champions. He was the one that had great potential but when the streets called him he answered. Boxing and the streets never did and never will mix. The streets will eat you. The confrontation with Mike Tyson on 125th Street (in front of Dapper Dan's) is well documented but the end result was green taking Tyson and Don King to court and got a BS 45,000 settlement. He pretty much bit the hand that fed him (Don king) and he never got another significant fight after that. His team did not advise him right by not telling him to chill and be patient. They had the perfect promo for another fight based on what happened in the street confrontation. It's all good Mitch. We do what most men dare not do and or fear to do. 🥊
