Mike is a raging death machine hiding inside a truly gentle but reluctant soul. As tragic as his trajectory could be seen, without it, we wouldn't have the warrior-philosopher we have today. Mike lived through his shit, he deserves the love today that he didn't get then.
When he was 13 years old, he got to spar with Bobby Stewart, who was a pro fighter working with the troubled youth. Tyson fought him raw as an untrained "nobody" and made him take a knee. Tyson impressed him so much that Bobby Stewart took him to meet Cus and the rest is history. 13/14 year old Mike knocking out grown ass men is still terrifying.
People are laughing and looking up to him but Tyson and his team used to go round violently attacking ANYONE They felt they could rob and maybe assault in other ways too.. God knows how many people died or were crippled or traumatised or r@ped by people in his crew the guy was REAL Mean back then and Has shown NO Real repentance about what they did how many women and children and old men and old women did they hurt and terrorise
He was simply a product of his environment. And from what I've seen, Brownsville in the seventies and eighties looked bloody frightening, like a war zone.
I adore Mike Tyson. He came up hard on the streets and literally fought his way up to fame. He has the heart and spirit of a warrior. God bless you, Mike Tyson.❤
Yes back in the early 80s the tuffest guys from Brooklyn would go to other neighborhoods to fight each other for money or bikes or anything of value tyson was from Atlantic ave Brownsville I remember him always fighting in the streets near the check cashing place in Brooklyn nobody could beat him💪
Living a lifestyle on the wrong side of the law and society weighs heavily on a persons subconscious.They feel like the biggest pieces of shit but at the same time would never change the way they were schooled
Mike actually beat the whole “die a hero or live long enough to become a villain” arc, he’s done the born a villain and lived long enough to become the hero. Great, another fight to add to his record, and in fact is probably the best fight he’s ever won.
Mike wasn't 220 lbs even at 16. I was an amateur during his time. Share tournaments with him. He was more like 189 but solid muscle. He wasn't cock back then. But very confident. I'm glad I was 147lb....He used to cheer his fellow competitors. Cool kid..
@@rocaw The story's been around for ages, based IIRC on an old U-God interview transcript. Can't tell you the exact source. But if you google "u god tyson ear rings", you will find videos of both U-God and Tyson commenting on that story.
That's what I was thinking. "I beat people up to steal from them". Crowd: laughter and applause. Mike probably thinks the crowd is a bunch of idiots. He's saying this because it was true, not because he's proud of it. And I certainly don't think he is happy that people are laughing and applauding.
Only Mike Tyson can tell you what it was like for him as a child growing up.He did say he chose instant gratification.While his siblings chose education.I think the crowd are laughing out of shock at Mike Tyson’s remarkable honesty.
Love u Mike.. & GOD is with U, Never fear... ONLY GOD KNOCK HIM OUT LIKE HE RODED U, BRO☆☆☆☆☆ U ARE THE BEST IN THIS EARTH. GOD GIVE U POWER THAT NO ONE CAN DO IT LIKE U IN THRING/ STZ. & ALL TEARS CLEANS UR MIND
Everything this man says it's the truth. That's why I know he did not rape that woman that accused him. She went up to his room and then was dancing around the next day, and then she got a payday and an innocent man to jail .
People don't realize this ....they're laughing but he's dead serious... He lived a tragic life
Exactly! People treat him like an animal at the zoo.
@@JPF1878 good point, i had the same perception, they dont even try to understand why he was fighting on the streets, just laughing at the beast
Mike is a raging death machine hiding inside a truly gentle but reluctant soul. As tragic as his trajectory could be seen, without it, we wouldn't have the warrior-philosopher we have today. Mike lived through his shit, he deserves the love today that he didn't get then.
He had a very hard life but I don't consider his life tragic... And the fact that he rose above it is a triumph.
I relate to your comment specifically.
He was knocking out grown men in the streets when he was 14.
When he was 13 years old, he got to spar with Bobby Stewart, who was a pro fighter working with the troubled youth. Tyson fought him raw as an untrained "nobody" and made him take a knee. Tyson impressed him so much that Bobby Stewart took him to meet Cus and the rest is history. 13/14 year old Mike knocking out grown ass men is still terrifying.
He was also knocking out grandmas at 13 to steal their handbags, your hero people.
It sounds absurd, but if you look at his build when he was 16, it's really not that hard to believe.
People are laughing and looking up to him but Tyson and his team used to go round violently attacking ANYONE They felt they could rob and maybe assault in other ways too.. God knows how many people died or were crippled or traumatised or r@ped by people in his crew

how many women and children and old men and old women did they hurt and terrorise
@@CastleHassall Exactly right.
I love Mike for his honesty and telling the truth.
They will never be another Mike tyson!!
There will never be another like anybody, everyone is the best at being themselves, we are all unique.
@WhoThisMonkey I agree that's why I said what I said we'll never see another heavyweight boxer like mike tyson ever again
@WhoThisMonkey
finally...someone who
speaks the truth..😃
Sonny Liston upbringing and life story was even more sadder and scary. And he still became Heavy weight champion.
Never ever.
Mike is my new favorite philosopher
And I think that is the case with me. I find his interviews very educative
You have to admire Mike's candor.
" Money or I was just robbing somebody. "
i have done it bear times so i can relate to what mike tyson is saying I aint saying it like im proud
Get em Mike !!!!!!;;
@@yannikid How are you doing these days? Have you found any bit of peace yet?
Iron Mike the toughest and most honest man to ever run the streets.
He was simply a product of his environment. And from what I've seen, Brownsville in the seventies and eighties looked bloody frightening, like a war zone.
It was free. N fun
Today too
It was a crack addicted poor nightmare. Dangerous as hell
“Dangerous as hell”. I can’t help but hear Easy E’s voice when hearing that phrase. Lol
A WARZONE!!!!!!!
I adore Mike Tyson. He came up hard on the streets and literally fought his way up to fame. He has the heart and spirit of a warrior. God bless you, Mike Tyson.❤
Love hearing his stories.
The greatest
Are u saved
Mike Tyson is a national treasure. Such a great man.
Yes back in the early 80s the tuffest guys from Brooklyn would go to other neighborhoods to fight each other for money or bikes or anything of value tyson was from Atlantic ave Brownsville I remember him always fighting in the streets near the check cashing place in Brooklyn nobody could beat him💪
He seems depressed remembering this shit
Because it’s negative. I get ashamed of my street days too
He hates the person he was back then
I bet he loved him also

@@mattroom4264 🥺
I love uncle mike …. His stories never get old
people forget he was literally involved in gang warfare when he was younger, he fought to survive
BORN TO FIGHT 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Buddy came out the womb making people wish they never left💀
Mike actually beat the whole “die a hero or live long enough to become a villain” arc, he’s done the born a villain and lived long enough to become the hero.
Great, another fight to add to his record, and in fact is probably the best fight he’s ever won.
❤ so pure and honest that makes u still my idol
Mitch green. remember the picture of him after Mike fought him in the street.
That was one punch. Not even a beat down. Mike was so dangerous when he was young.
Yeah...eye was closed shut 😒 😅
That’s why he’s so great
R.I.P KIMBO SLICE 💪🏾
It's incredible how Mike has grown as a person and is so relaxed and humble now because this guy used to be a One SCARY Dude!
When Cus took Mike under his wing. Mike was 12years old, 220Lbs and Solid Muscle. Iron Mike was Born to Fight
Mike wasn't 220 lbs even at 16. I was an amateur during his time. Share tournaments with him. He was more like 189 but solid muscle. He wasn't cock back then. But very confident. I'm glad I was 147lb....He used to cheer his fellow competitors. Cool kid..
Mike Tyson work ethic practice and skills!
Love Mike, his honesty ❤
Yes Yes. Street Fighter 🤜🤛. Come one Come All.....👌😄
Love you ❤ Mike Tyson ❤❤❤ number 1
Mike... I love you Champ. I just want you have some peace. You deserve that... you put in the work and did right by Cus.
He been doing that for years now
Mike Tyson grew up the same way the Spartans did. Is it any wonder he is such a warrior? They don't make them like Mike anymore.
Thats why m. Bison/balrog was created bcoz tyson is a street fighter
THE GREATEST BOXER PERIOD.
RESPECT ,A MAN OF LOVE.
I love mike !
Yes!! Yes yes yes😂
Great man now! Can’t take that away
People don't know how it be. Mike Tyson is trying to tell them, but it's so beyond them that kids would be fighting for profit on the streets.
No point having a referee in a mike tyson street fight..
"Aand fight...... nine , ten ... he's out"
He was born heavy-handed and a tough chin
I read about this in his book, if anyone out there hasn't read it yet I can tell you it's a really good read.
Bro ! Mike Tyson is GOAT literally all I have to say.
We love you Mike
This is the difference between a combat sports athlete and a true fighter
Mike tyson honesty is ❤
Patrick is a good host. Never interrupts his guest, reads his guests' gestures and takes it seriously or lightly depending on his guests.
He's so pure.
Lmaorotf - were you a knock out artist? yes yes yes!! 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Gotta love Mike !!!
Imagine getting robbed by Mike Tyson in the late 70s to early 80s 😂
😂. People would just hand everything over
The mom of a Wu-Tang member (U-God) supposedly had her ear rings snatched by Mike
Hahaha
@@UniqueG24Any source aboyt that
@@rocaw The story's been around for ages, based IIRC on an old U-God interview transcript. Can't tell you the exact source. But if you google "u god tyson ear rings", you will find videos of both U-God and Tyson commenting on that story.
I like mike but why is the crowd laughing at him robbering people wtf weirdos
I think its because of just how nonchalantly he said it maybe.
It excites people who’ve never been around it turning them into giddy children
Shouldn't you be doing your homework, kid?
Kid maybe it’s time for you to get off the internet😂
I was thinking the exact same thing
They wouldn't be laughing if they were getting robbed & knocked out.
Image having to deal with a young Mike Tyson with a peek-a-boo set up
Cus taught him the peekaboo but also took him off the streets and kept him up in the Catskills. So he's talking about the days BEFORE he was trained.
the power was always there.. even back then... its rhe same power
It wasn’t just me. Everyone did that at that time 💪🏼
imagine fighting tyson bare knuckle without a referee💀
You will die from impact.
Always the best!!
True 👑
MIKE TYSON, KIMBO SLICE 🥊🦍🥷🏾 BOTH MU FAVORITE FIGHTERS
We are lucky having you Champ in our time ❤😂👍
Imagine how many many men were dispatched and knocked out by this beast😂😂
People will applaud anything if the person saying it is famous enough.
That's what I was thinking. "I beat people up to steal from them".
Crowd: laughter and applause.
Mike probably thinks the crowd is a bunch of idiots. He's saying this because it was true, not because he's proud of it. And I certainly don't think he is happy that people are laughing and applauding.
Tyson a warrior
This dude is freaking awesome
The more I hear Mike these days, the more I enjoy what he has to say!
Mike Tyson is a fast killing!" machine!" 🦾
Something I never knew before about Tyson. Makes sense. What a persona
PBD is blown away visualizing a 14yr old Tyson knocking dudes out 4 times a day for money 🤯
Two worlds facing one another 😅
Only Mike Tyson can tell you what it was like for him as a child growing up.He did say he chose instant gratification.While his siblings chose education.I think the crowd are laughing out of shock at Mike Tyson’s remarkable honesty.
Thats How old Brooklyn was even in Bensonhurst , Bayridge and Gravesend .. I cant count how street fights i had back then .
Yo dawg! You not listening yes yes yes .. Tyson 💪🏽
Tyson is the. Best
love for you mike❤
Love u Mike.. & GOD is with U, Never fear... ONLY GOD KNOCK HIM OUT LIKE HE RODED U, BRO☆☆☆☆☆ U ARE THE BEST IN THIS EARTH. GOD GIVE U POWER THAT NO ONE CAN DO IT LIKE U IN THRING/ STZ. & ALL TEARS CLEANS UR MIND
Imagine having to fight mike on the streets 💀💀💀
Imagine bare knuckle boxing Mike Tyson...
I gotta get my medical insurance straight first before I start imagining that.

Love this guy
ASK MITCH GREEN WHO GAVE HIM THAT BLACK EYE 😂😂😂😂
Almighty Tyson
He was knocking out people he was Robbin even women
Those kinda fighting skills cannot be learnt, only acquired !
That literally doesn’t mean anything😂😂
Your type of stupidity cannot be acquired.
He's just saying you can't learn it from a book you need to learn it by doiny
Mike Tyson ❤❤❤❤
I used to fight.. but I can't imagine going to every neighborhood knocking dudes out
Wow what a guy
Bro worked his way out of the worst times and punched his way to the top.
What warriors look like. Mike, a straight up warrior. Many like him, but are not him.
I rock wit Tyson. I think he's intelligent and you can feel his pain
Amazing everything he went through and made it out of
Nobody better!!!
Only thing more terrifying than fighting Tyson in the ring is fighting him outside the ring with NO GLOVES!💀
Mike ❤❤❤❤❤
Mike is very intelligent man
I've never committed a crime I'm my life I promise. For real!
Something tells me mike would be fighting king of streets nowadays
As he’s gotten older he’s even more handsome
Tyson 🔥🔥🔥
I LOVE YOU MIKE TYSON
YOU ARE AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE BEST BOXER OF ALL TIME.
YOU ARE A LIVING LEGEND.
There is no such thing as the best of all times
Everything this man says it's the truth. That's why I know he did not rape that woman that accused him.
She went up to his room and then was dancing around the next day, and then she got a payday and an innocent man to jail .
Tyson NOMER 1
