Tyson wasnt just a trained boxer he was a trained killer he was trained to show no mercy he even said when he got in the ring he wanted to kill anybody who faced him he also said these guys who think their tough their not tough when i bring that pain to them
Mike Tyson knew the meaning of the word entertainment. He was a wild showman, formidable and naturally super skilled boxer. He follows this up by coming out as a self aware individual with heart and inate wisdom. Honestly, who could ask for more from a sportsman? ✌🏽
You know what’s crazy about Mike as a showman? He wasn’t even trying to be entertaining, he was like a ancient gladiator people were just genuinely excited to see him possibly execute people
@@jameysummers1577and the snake Don King! He was a true piece of shit! How anyone could have him as a manager after the hundreds of millions he stole from Mike is beyond mind blowing to me! He should have ended up in an alley with extra breathing holes instead of robbing other fighters after that!
Even with all the legendary help money, fame, women, drugs, alcohol got the better of Mike, Teddy and Kevin both said he was becoming controllable when he let that snake Don king come in they all drove the coaches away first fight Mike had without Teddy or Kevin. He got his ass knocked out by a “”Buster.
Great interview. It shows the side of Tyson as a human being, not just some title winning champ without a heart. Long Life to Iron Mike and the rest of team Rooney.
mike is amazing. no heavyweight ever had that combination of speed, defense, and power all in one package. if D' Amato had lived longer he would have ruled much longer and his life may have stayed on track. Still inspires me to this day.
it's sweet to see tyson like this; so hungry. also so eager to prove he's a good learner. wish i had that drive. kind of wish i could go back to fourteen and have it
Tyson's soul of a fighter died the day Cus did (the only real father he ever knew, trusted and loved) ... it's sad because if he didn't this man would have become the greatest fighter of all time!
Larry brought out a good point. That style does not allow a fighter to have a long career. Just short blazing intense careers. That style takes a lot of energy to maintain and its possible to contain and maintain it for a long period of time. Tyson served his purpose. To be the youngest Heavy Weight champion ever.
I love how Tyson is with the birds and did u see the owl standing so close to him ??First off,Tyson was born on the same day as my daughter June 30th,and my favorite animal is the owl ..Growing up and now iron Mike is my idol idc care about the ALLEGED bad things changes my opinion about him NOT AT ALL I knew I had some sort of connection to him!!!And I’m stoked I do!!! 8:17
Respect to the best boxer ever seen in planet earth.Ali was more clever but not more gifted and talented than Tyson was.No one has been and will never be better than him.
Honestly Holyfield Buster would have lost to Tyson if if he still had cus & not married givens or went with don king. The only person that would have really given him a challenge would have been Lewis
His opponents werent on the same level as the opponents during the golden age of boxing, but what made him so amazing is the way he beat his opponents. Explosive power, insane speed and a chin made of rock. He reminds me of an ali in his prime with the durability of joe frazier. He could have been one of the greatest of all time. But he fucked it up bigtime and even still he is considered one of the best.
I don't think there will ever be another boxer that comes close to Mike in his prime unless human beings start practicing prenatal genetic augmentation . Nevermind a generation...he was a once-in-a-SPECIES freak of nature.
Mike Tyson was the only heavyweight that was worth his salt after the old heavyweights you have boxers like London s aj he would get to hold the spit bucket in the 80s
really the reason he didn't fight the top guys like you say he didnt is because people were ducking him, there was not a line waiting to fight a strong striker like Tyson, he is one of the greatest of all time and one of the youngest to win the title the way he did straight up knock outs
TYSON WAS DEFINITELY ON THE SAME LEAGUE AS MUHAMMAD ALI BUT HE HAD SO MUCH RESPECT FOR HIM AND HE USED TO SAY HE IS THE NUMBER ONE CHAMP OF THE WORLD ALI IS. THAT'S HOW MUCH RESPECT HE HAD FOR ALI.... MUHAMMAD ALI WAS JUST A GENIUS IN BOXING AND HE WAS THE FASTEST BOXER ON HE'S TOES AND THE WAY HE MOVED ABOUT BOBBING AND WEAVING.
Im training to fight and I wanna adopt the exact same style of Tyson. The same techniques to intimidate and mentally have my oppenent beat before the bell the rings and believing it and ur opennent can see that fire in ur eyes burnin and he knows he has no chance. I love to fight. Nothing excites me more than to fight and to do it like the guy had just killed my mother.
This man is great!! I wish Cus would've been ten yrs younger when he took Tyson in. He would've stayed protected from the dirty part of boxing. I believe he would've retired 55-0. ❤️ 2X 🏆 🙏
I just really enjoy him. I dont know why some just stick with me. It's crazy thinking of how loyal a fan I was when I was like 8 or 9. He was like a an action hero. I don't like to say, cause new roads, new day in new futures, but I counted the days for him to get out of jail. I remember waiting so I could watch boxing again. Thats American pride anyway you look at it. That man was an American force to be reckoned with! Can't say I've felt that sturdy guarantee anywhere else. not heaveywieght.
Don didn’t have mike in Cleveland… Don lived in Orwell, and Mike lived 5 miles down the road from me in Southington on 534. It’s a church now, but Mike built that home from the ground up. When he lived there, it was a really nice house.
How ironic is this. His own people (blacks) betrayed him and the white man was actually overpaying him. So sad. Your most beloved ones are the the biggest danger.
I think more importantly then an unpredictable recourse hungry woman is a good circle of genuine friends who can be there when he needs that support. Women aren't designed to deal with the male struggles. The second a woman sees you at your lowest or weakest, they instinctively lose respect for and leave.
very true! Alot of his first 19 opponents had at least some talent and they were the only ones standing in front of him. The average guy on the street would would not tell those guys they were bums to their faces.... Lorenzo Boyd, Sammy Scaff, Reggie Gross ect...
Men piss better, more prestigious, more successful lives for themselves away on women everyday; instead of taking care of business first, then the woman. The advice Tony Montana (played by Al Pacino) in "Scarface" at the beach, was actually good advice. Anyway, however his career turned out, he will always be the favorite fighter of all time to a lot of people all over the world. For us all, it was nothing less than a blessing, an honor, and a privilege to watch Mike Tyson perform his art.
Cus was just like a proper father to him and he respect cus to the nines. After cus died mike Tyson became a champion but he was still very heart broken because cus wasn't there to see it happen because cus always knew and told him you are going to be a world champion one of the days you'll see. He dissaplind Tyson properly and took him out of the street gang stuff and made him become what he is now. Nuff respect for cus Rip cus. You was a good man and a romodel to Tyson. ❤
Tyson fell prey to not only himself but those around him who latched onto his naivety. I think Tyson was often misunderstood and severely criticized by people who nothing about him or his internal situation.
Mike being such a popular personality it was inevitable he was going to be milked by the media with their negative comments because that's how news sells.I think he kept very quite and if we had been put in his shoes we would have reacted even worse. E.g how do stay calm when being falsely accused of rape and being robbed of your money....injustice after injustce and to how he was treated. Not making excuses for him but he was 20 and on top of the world and white america didn't accept that
Tyson admits to cheating on Robin, she says he beat her and he told Jose Torres the best punch he ever threw against anyone was her yet people make her out to be the villain and him the victim.
Im a pro sean johnson thats one thing you dont want to do beacause if you focus on someone elses style you wont succeed. By all means have the same attitude and intent but find your own style
If Cus had lived and Kevin Rooney, Bill Clayton and Jim Jacobs been behind him and Tyson hadn't been so naive and gullible in allowing that murdering Bastard Don King to brain wash him I honestly believe Tyson would have beat Rocky Marciano's 49-0 record and retired undefeated 🥊🥊🥊
Theres sources that dispute that but even if she did get some money off him she did it after he battered her and cheated on her so its bullshit to make him out to be the victim.
Going to prison fucked Mike's career up. After he got out you could notice the difference in his movemet speed. He was slow, his herculean power seemed to have diminished and he was slow.
That's a sweeping generalisation if ever I heard one. Tyson didn't go to D'Amato, Cus went to him. If you're going to make a point put it in the right context .
Tyson wasnt just a trained boxer he was a trained killer he was trained to show no mercy he even said when he got in the ring he wanted to kill anybody who faced him he also said these guys who think their tough their not tough when i bring that pain to them
Larry merchant literally knows nothing about fighting 😂
He was better than anybody else at bringing that pain to the other fighters
Mike Tyson knew the meaning of the word entertainment. He was a wild showman, formidable and naturally super skilled boxer. He follows this up by coming out as a self aware individual with heart and inate wisdom. Honestly, who could ask for more from a sportsman? ✌🏽
Well said

As boxers go he was VERY special indeed.
Forget his demise , remember on just how AWESOME he was.
85-88 the world watched in awe.
Teddy Atlas + Kevin Rooney + Cus 'd' Amato + Mike Tyson = Unstoppable force in the world of boxing!
Then add Robin Givens........It all comes falling down. "Women weaken legs" like the legendary Mickey said.
@@jameysummers1577and the snake Don King! He was a true piece of shit! How anyone could have him as a manager after the hundreds of millions he stole from Mike is beyond mind blowing to me! He should have ended up in an alley with extra breathing holes instead of robbing other fighters after that!
Teddy atlas was a bum and still is
Even with all the legendary help money, fame, women, drugs, alcohol got the better of Mike, Teddy and Kevin both said he was becoming controllable when he let that snake Don king come in they all drove the coaches away first fight Mike had without Teddy or Kevin. He got his ass knocked out by a “”Buster.
@@jameysummers1577
uno dei piu grandi, un misto di velocita tecnica e grande potenza...... grande mike
Great interview. It shows the side of Tyson as a human being, not just some title winning champ without a heart. Long Life to Iron Mike and the rest of team Rooney.
Mike Tyson is the most legendary person alive for me.God bless him.May he be healthy and find peace.
mike is amazing. no heavyweight ever had that combination of speed, defense, and power all in one package. if D' Amato had lived longer he would have ruled much longer and his life may have stayed on track. Still inspires me to this day.
mike tyson is a great man and great boxer
One of the greatest fighters in history he made history a living legend.
Tyson has become such a wise man, but you see how he paid dearly for every ounce of his wisdom.
Tyson's story really shows the importance of fathers or father figures
mike is a man cuz he said that ali would beat him in a fight that's show mike praises the legend
it's sweet to see tyson like this; so hungry. also so eager to prove he's a good learner. wish i had that drive. kind of wish i could go back to fourteen and have it
Mr Tyson your greatest of all TIME
Mr. Iron Mike Tyson fought some big size people in some of the best champions in the world..and that's a Blessing and he still going.
Tyson's soul of a fighter died the day Cus did (the only real father he ever knew, trusted and loved) ... it's sad because if he didn't this man would have become the greatest fighter of all time!
You don't think Tyson was one of the greatest of all time? Who in your opinion was?
Great man Tyson, love him.
Larry brought out a good point. That style does not allow a fighter to have a long career. Just short blazing intense careers. That style takes a lot of energy to maintain and its possible to contain and maintain it for a long period of time. Tyson served his purpose. To be the youngest Heavy Weight champion ever.
Play Mike Tyson was a good man❤
Tyson never fought bums! he made his opponents look like bums.
11:37
OMFG
YO FUCK DAT
Imagine seeing that before fighting someone LMAO
I love how Tyson is with the birds and did u see the owl standing so close to him ??First off,Tyson was born on the same day as my daughter June 30th,and my favorite animal is the owl ..Growing up and now iron Mike is my idol idc care about the ALLEGED bad things changes my opinion about him NOT AT ALL I knew I had some sort of connection to him!!!And I’m stoked I do!!!

Respect to the best boxer ever seen in planet earth.Ali was more clever but not more gifted and talented than Tyson was.No one has been and will never be better than him.
Holyfield dominated Mike twice.
Mike was impressive, but not even the greatest in his own era.
Honestly Holyfield Buster would have lost to Tyson if if he still had cus & not married givens or went with don king. The only person that would have really given him a challenge would have been Lewis
Buster Douglas beat Mike
His opponents werent on the same level as the opponents during the golden age of boxing, but what made him so amazing is the way he beat his opponents. Explosive power, insane speed and a chin made of rock. He reminds me of an ali in his prime with the durability of joe frazier. He could have been one of the greatest of all time. But he fucked it up bigtime and even still he is considered one of the best.
That. Bring. A. Tear. To. My. Eyes. If. He. Lost. They. Would. Not. Love. Him. No. More 😢. Wow. Love. You. Tyson ❤
They never mention holyfield headbutting tyson like 1000 times, in both fights
Yep I’m pretty sure that’s why Mike bit him, Holyfield was constantly head butting him
6:45 Even though these are just tiny clips its amazing that we have this piece of history. He's probably about 14 or 15 here.
I don't think there will ever be another boxer that comes close to Mike in his prime unless human beings start practicing prenatal genetic augmentation . Nevermind a generation...he was a once-in-a-SPECIES freak of nature.
This is such a good video. Thanks for this.
He headbutted him like 3 times actually, and he was getting points taken off for it. THEN Tyson had the urge to bite his ear.
iron mike thug life.
Mike Tyson was the only heavyweight that was worth his salt after the old heavyweights you have boxers like London s aj he would get to hold the spit bucket in the 80s
Nice, thanks for posting this .
Mike you are great.
I have all respect for you.
He is great champion only losed when distracted he was in my mind the greatest
Of course we will still love you Mike ❤.
really the reason he didn't fight the top guys like you say he didnt is because people were ducking him, there was not a line waiting to fight a strong striker like Tyson, he is one of the greatest of all time and one of the youngest to win the title the way he did straight up knock outs
love u so much my blood brother
What about me?? Do you love me?
fav of all time

mike tyson.....you are my idol........when i go to the America.....i'll visit you....LOGAN
tyson the legend
jesus look at the size of him! as a teen he was like a fully grown weightlifter build wise lol
Tyson is the best killa boxer ever!!!
If Tyson trained hes legs he was a fucking beast!!
Don didn’t have mike in Cleveland… Don lived in Orwell, and Mike lived 5 miles down the road from me in Southington on 534. It’s a church now, but Mike built that home from the ground up. When he lived there, it was a really nice house.
He was not prepared for lift after being the best😢
Legend ❤
Holyfields use of the head in both fights was terrible,not defending what Tyson did,but it doesn't seem to get mentioned.
Jake Lamotta told Tyson to avoid all the garbage, because thats all we attract.
nah ali didn't have the power tyson had
Mike really loved his birds but he should have stuck to the pigeons lol.
love Mike Tyson, my counties are next week under 45 kg
There were shots fired? No. That was Tyson spitting holyfields ear out.
tyson came up when the great heavywights were retired and old. sure he beat holmes but holmes was in his forties.
Holmes was 38 mike was a different animal
How ironic is this. His own people (blacks) betrayed him and the white man was actually overpaying him.
So sad. Your most beloved ones are the the biggest danger.
Looking forward to seeing the new HBO documentary they did on Mike
If only he had a good woman...
Yeah, him, me,and 1 Million other guys.WHO CAN find a good one?
Proverbs 31:10 "WHO CAN find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies".
Amen 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I think more importantly then an unpredictable recourse hungry woman is a good circle of genuine friends who can be there when he needs that support. Women aren't designed to deal with the male struggles. The second a woman sees you at your lowest or weakest, they instinctively lose respect for and leave.
This is proof that women can literally ruin your life
very true! Alot of his first 19 opponents had at least some talent and they were the only ones standing in front of him. The average guy on the street would would not tell those guys they were bums to their faces.... Lorenzo Boyd, Sammy Scaff, Reggie Gross ect...
El mejor de todos los tiemposss
Nice Dempsey Roll :)

That Dirty Money hungry Robin smh
Tyson fell prey to not only himself but those around him who latched onto his naivety.
I think Tyson was often misunderstood and severely criticized by people who nothing about him or his internal situation.
11:36 WOW! two different levels of speed and technique there
Mike Tyson won't say it or these interviewers but don King was his down fall ion care wat nobody say
Mike being such a popular personality it was inevitable he was going to be milked by the media with their negative comments because that's how news sells.I think he kept very quite and if we had been put in his shoes we would have reacted even worse.

Dirty fucking business. Mike didn't stand a chance.
And he also didn't wanted. That's more for the evil, weak-hearted...
He was too young and the people that had his best interest in mind died. Pretty sad
thats why I stopped boxing
dude was knocking fools out cold in the jr olympiads. did anyone even land a punch in london this year??
What year was that interview done at the 2:36 mark?? do you know if its avaiable on youtube.. If you know please respond Thanks!
Im a pro sean johnson thats one thing you dont want to do beacause if you focus on someone elses style you wont succeed. By all means have the same attitude and intent but find your own style
If Cus had lived and Kevin Rooney, Bill Clayton and Jim Jacobs been behind him and Tyson hadn't been so naive and gullible in allowing that murdering Bastard Don King to brain wash him I honestly believe Tyson would have beat Rocky Marciano's 49-0 record and retired undefeated 🥊🥊🥊
I agree
So Robin, Ruth and Don were in cahoots against the man who been with him from the start.
@NamIsIll what race was jose torrez? im guessing puertorican
6:20 Kevin Rooney Sounds like Danny Devito 😅
The afro at 11:55 is legendary
Who can tell me what he says at 0:08 - 0:15 ? please answer
no one dislike talk ab He is the truly Legend!!!!!!!!!!
He made it a hot line i made it a hot song
Mic Em - Rookie N Vet
Mic Em - Rookie N Vet
Mic Em - Rookie N Vet
Mic Em - Rookie N Vet
Tyson in the 80's would have defeated every opponent he ever lost too. and You-Tuber Jack Paul would not even last one round.
what is the point of that headgear at 12:40. doesn't cover the chin and jaw
Legend!
what year was this filmed?
Well said.
Dayum this narrator has a sick voice
Theres sources that dispute that but even if she did get some money off him she did it after he battered her and cheated on her so its bullshit to make him out to be the victim.
He'd make the letter 's' disappear by biting it off and after surgery it would look like the letter 'z' :D
Goldiggers, snakes and manipulators all around him. You gotta have a strong mind to be able to see through all that deception.
0:08 - 0:15
"It's just my nature and I mean to reach for you, to take your heart, your blood, your spleen, or your liver"
Going to prison fucked Mike's career up. After he got out you could notice the difference in his movemet speed. He was slow, his herculean power seemed to have diminished and he was slow.
how do you explain him dominating the heavyweight division?
Wish i knew him I'm not the best but know when to say no
what year is this program from?
That's a sweeping generalisation if ever I heard one.
Tyson didn't go to D'Amato, Cus went to him.
If you're going to make a point put it in the right context .
Well said!!
