    When you asked him if he was into cage fighting and he replied "if two bugs walk across the table and start fighting, I'm into that!". What an epic answer. Some people like Mike just seem to come up with memorable answers effortlessly. I can remember a few good ones from him.

      The man is a legend. I`m old enough to have been a fan back when he was coming up. In the 80`s there was nothing more exiting than a Tyson fight. After he came back from prison, i had an issue with him. To much trash talk. But the man he is now.....I might be even a bigger fan. Salute you Mike 😊

      Reckless was a bad word, defensive should have been used if your going to publish a description of another man's career stability. Watch and subscribe to hot boxing with Mike Tyson and listen to his story. Your 40, you assume a responsibility if you are going to describe another man's talents to a mass audience, especially if they have no information on him. Your heart is in the right place, however misrepresentation of a legend can rub his true fans wrong.

      @@fg5563 Oh for fucks sake...are you one of those people who only belive in freedom of opinion, but only if it matters to you? Who are you to tell me what I should or shouldn't have said? I assume doing that make for a miserable life sometimes. Mike Tyson had a span of years of saying what he wanted, when he wanted and however he wanted to. Quote from an interview, from when he was young: "I'll talk to you how I want to talk to you, fuck off." He has even admitted to his faults and failures of being reckless and young and immature. He said he hates how he acted back then and is embarrassed by it now. That to me is earning wisdom and growing up, so my comments and statements are justified. Also I'm pretty sure Mike doesn't need anyone to take up for him, even though you feel like a "Protector" of sorts. By the way, it's "you're" not "your". 👍

    Tyson is genuinely one of the best humans of our time, and this are not just words, he really is, he struggled so much as a kid, portrayed himself as a tough rock which he definitely was, a tough rock with a giant gem inside, and now we re looking at that gem totally exposed. One of my biggest impossible wishes in life is hugging Mike, I think I’d cry like a mf, I really look up to him.

    The thing with Mike is that he went through a lot of bad things in his life when he was younger, but he bounced back. He’s a true fighter. He seems very happy and has definitely found his way. Some people would have given up and gone in a different direction aster all that. Good sit-down. Looking forward to part 2.
