I had the pleasure of shooting this video... I was impressed by Mike's knowledge and love of the sport.. It's a day I won't forget... It's a different side of Mike I was happy to capture...
So YOU;RE the one who shot and posted this!!! I'm from Catskill, and knew Mike when he showed up at age 13. I'm the white old guy in the striped t-shirt, who Mike puts in a head-lock. I didn't realize someone was recording the whole thing from the moment he arrived. Thanks for making such a great memory for the Ca
tskill crew!!! Randy Fried...
Great vid
@@1catskill 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's nice to see Mike this happy. He's like a kid in a candy shop in this boxing museum. His knowledge of boxing history is impressive.
Thanks for capturing this side of mike for it's history to jude him by more accurately
Mike is a walking boxing library
Mike's knowledge of Boxing is amazing.
A
Fit Boy Abdul He loved studying the greats of the past
Yessir 😎
Yes it is! It's something to do your craft but it's a whole other thing to KNOW your craft.
@@humblewarrior7593 on point!
This is probably one of the reasons why Tyson was so good back in the day, all this knowledge watching all these classic fighters, emulating their styles, their strategies, taking the best bits of each fighters and implementing them into your own style, backed up with great trainers like Cus,Teddy and Kevin, how could he not be great?
Harry Callahan he didn’t emulate anyone and he didn’t look up to anyone except Ali he said so himself.
Harry you are 100%right
@@Cryptic-jl3qz he's no Alexander I'm Alexander I'm jack Dempsey I'm Sonny Liston I'm cut from there cloths , also Mike has mentioned a favored Duran aswell
Mike doing the tour guides job better than him 😂😂 LMAO
Lol
Ian Clark Tyson not only a great champion..
I know Right 🤣🤣🤣
Word he knows everything bout that place, if an alien came to earth tryna find out the whole boxing history of time, give him Mike to talk to he’ll break it down fight by fight 💯
Baddest tour guide on the planet 🥊
Mike used to be this scary guy. Now, you cant find any more humble and nice person. I`m glad it turned out so well for him!
he started off humble and well mannered in the 80s and that changed when Cus died and some terrible people entered his life. He's always really been like this, but sadly easily to manipulate by bad people
@@Cenot4ph he was programmed to self destruct that's why he needed to be kept on a leash by those people who truly cared about him until Don King came.
He is no scared but very chilled man
@@fayaznasiri3220 to an extent!
True
Mike Tyson could literally go all day talking about boxing
No one has been on top of the world, dominated the heavyweight division, spiraled out of control and regained himself and reestablished himself more than Mike Tyson. He's a better human today than he's ever been. And this is a clear indication of the amount of focus he put on mastering boxing. His knowledge is staggering. Iron Mike Tyson is a true inspiration. Congratulations Champ! You really defied ALL odds.
***** truth brother!
Perfect comment. Tyson has is my favorite boxer of all time, and I feel so privileged to be able to watch clips like this while he’s alive and well. Wish him the best. He deserves it all
@Robert Scott Mike Tyson didn't dominate?!? That's the stupidest thing I ever heard. 20 years old, undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. A record. 50-6 with 44 knockouts. He made them look easy.
Prime Tyson was the best human
Mike is a Brilliant man.
The way he overcame everything has made him great.
I see Mr. Tyson is in his element and is so enthusiastic. Cus D’mato really inspired and nurtured him, and Mr. Tyson loved him for that
Mike Tyson remember all of the thousands of people he has met in his life. He remembers every boxer from his childhood. He’s clearly not received brain damage during his career. His memories are very ‘vivid’
In his book, he stated that he has a photographic memory. I believe that when it comes to his boxing knowledge, it is really amazing how knowledgeable he is about the sport. You can tell his passion for the sport.
A true gentleman and boxing scholar. Mike is the man.
even i never meet him,but i can feel he is very humble person.
i hope n wishing u Had happy life always.
God blessed u with u family.
i still find it amazing to this day that some people don't know what a smart and caring man Mike Tyson is. it was always evident
He's like a kid in a candy store,knows his history too
There's no one like him in this era cus at the right place and right time.
If Cus had been fifteen years younger when he met Mike, Heavyweight boxing history would be completely different.
Lewis, Holyfield, Foreman, Tua, Klitschko’s, Bowe, DOUGLAS, Mercer, Morrison..., HE could’ve defeated every name in the 90’s, and walk away a billionaire if only he stayed disciplined..
@@izzyyizz5851 that's a fact thou
Tyson was a student of the game and became the youngest world champion ever , he should not be so humble he made HISTORY
Youngest Heavyweight champion ever, Benitez was the youngest ever at 17
Benitez was the youngest from Puerto Rico
I believe Tyson was the youngest undisputed champ ever.
Let the guy be humble if he wants to be
Arran Vid yes not saying it’s a bad thing he’s just using it as a example that he’s just so great and what he did
The all time Greatest - Iron Mike Tyson , this guy is just spilling the history - he seems to know almost everything about the photos he is looking at . Sir , In my eyes - you are the greatest . Much respect sir 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Tyson knows so much of his sport it's amazing.dont think there's any other fighter out there that knows as much as he does.his knowledge is unbelievable a man who truly loves his sport
Mike has pulled the greatest con job on the world promotes himself as being naive and uneducated when in reality he one of the most knowlegeable and intelligent people you could meet
He’s like a kid in a candy store when it comes to his boxing knowledge of the past greats! Mike the Great!!
Mike is great, and is so humble when asked about being in the boxing hall of fame.
he has a alot of knowledge about boxing
There will never be a boxer as ferocious as iron Mike Tyson
Mike Tyson is a real humble dude .
Mike you are the real example than everything is possible wao you are amazing god bless you n you family everybody around Puerto Rico love you champ 🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷(JOSE CHEGUI TORRES) REST IN PEACE🇵🇷THE CLOSED PUERTORICAN TO MIKE TYSON REMEMBER CUS,T JUST TO BE TRAINER OF CHEGUI TORRES . BLESSINGS!!
I really admire his state of mind nowadays.
I think he did find his place in the real life outside the boxingring.
Respect.
Mike never knew how to act like a celebrity just a real ass fuken person thats what a peoples champ really is. Love you mike
That was just Amazing!! Tyson in his prime was one of the greatest!! just a marvel to see!! Now he just a beautiful person!! student of the game!!
12:35 -
Mike's asked how it feels to be a part of boxing history and all those names. He says he's not in the same league and all the past fighters motivated and inspired him. They were legends to him. I've seen almost every fighter and feel Mike is the Greatest fighter of all-time. Yes things went south after Cus passed. Yes he lost some fights AFTER his prime. But Tyson in his prime was the best i've ever seen. His power was the greatest of all fighters. His speed was even more impressive. By far the quickest heavyweight, ever. His defensive skills (bobbing, weaving, eluding) was in a league of it's own. His knowledge of the sport is unsurpassed (you can see that in this video). He understood every fighter, every style and put it in his own package. This made him the best ever.
I really love how he takes so much time to take pictures with everyone who asked. Really a class act.
I shed tears of joy when I see the champ so at peace with himself , so at ease with the world.
thats called having money lol
Mike is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to his craft!!! Seems like he's really happy, that makes me so happy.
Now I understand why he was the greatest boxer. He is actually really smart, his memory is amazing. No wonder people say you have to be exceptionally intelligent if you want to become number one in any field. this applies to Tyson. His boxing IQ is superior.
Mike is like an encyclopedia of boxing.
I bet you can name some matches going way back into the late 1800's with fighters and he would know the background story on them.
agreed , Mike's Boxing knowledge is incredible.
Ian Cahill Yeah Mike spent so many hours of watching tape with Cus when he was young.
I cried listening to Mike . I have always been inspired by him and even when he lost . He had a way of taking the defeat like the mighty warrior he was. I understood his pain because my life mirrored it but without the fame. I could have sit here and listened to him forever. People have to understand when you come thru the struggle he did the money doesn’t heal the deep wounds within. I’m very happy to see my hero in such a great mind. Iron Mike you are a great representative to the sport and life. That’s why you’re the fighter I love the most . I appreciate all that you gave good and bad . Much Respect Champ you deserve all the admonishment we give . Much love and respect. Thank You 🙏
That was the best Mike Tyson video I've ever seen! Well done Mike you are a living legend
For sure,after retire from boxing,mike look very happy,healthy,and out of press presure,
Hope the best mike for you and your family man.greetings from greece
Mike is like a kid in a candy store. Amazing student of the sport.
Mike Tyson is the greatest fighter ever lived.
Yes the most dangerous
Ali
Dangerous man
Naaahhh he was an easy fighter to beat if you tied him up and frustrated him. ALI WOULD HAVE BEAT HIM. HIS DANCING WOULD HAVE MADE HIM QUIT LIKE SONNY LISTON DID. FOREMAN WOULD HAVE BEAT HIM ALSO BUT ALI GREATEST OF AAAAAALLLL TIIIIIIIMMMMEES
Darold Perry You can believe that bullshit if you want. Plenty others tried that method and was so far down on the scorecards. Mike started resting with them. Knock that shit off.
Aw man. What a nice, huge chunk of gold this footage is.
So humble, he even cracked a joke to put his towel with the greats robes. He doesn't had that robe with his name on it. That how simple he was, he always just had his towel with hole where he can just put his head on. But still for us here in Manila you are the Greatest Kid Dynamite Iron Mike Tyson!.
Mike, Cuss would be so proud of the man you've turned out to be, especially with the poop storm you were forced to live through. P.S. Your millions of fans are proud of you too. Sure miss watching you in the ring.
Holy cow! Mike should be the lead docent for that museum! What a fantastic sense of history, people, and dates the man has in his head! Amazing!
Mike is a boxing historian he's shy to admit it (I know a Lil things about it lol) he's also a very good linguist don't b fooled by his accent he's very smart
Its not an accent. He talks w his tongue. He’s from Brooklyn .
Malik H He has a speech impediment and Brooklyn has an accent
shit he a proper historian
still the best for my money!. i remember his fights in the 80's, when i was a teenager, and just being astonished at how fast/accurate/brutal/he was. just a completely different vibe to anybody else. a chilling fighter, and i'm so happy to have lived in the tyson era!.
It really is nice to see Tyson appear so happy... No man deserves to live in hell in his own mind... As most of us get older we learn to appreciate the true important things in life and that's mostly family and happiness...
Mike was an awesome boxer...He is a GREAT man!!!!
shit, Mike has so huge knowledge about boxing history. Love part when he said: these guys inspired me but I'm not in their ligue. You are Mike, You are part of this ligue, I would even say you are top of this ligue. Gtreets from Poland
Mike a Harvard walking sports library. He can handle any tough questions in any interviews
It takes as much passion about the history as it does the future to be a true great, Tysons like a kid in a candy store here, lovely to watch
It's amazing how good of a person he turned out to be I respect him allot would love to meet him.
He's always been a good person..just misguided.
Poor myke. He lost all, i mean everything. Now he is living his best life, being celebrated and respected. So honest, so informed about a game he dominated. My best fighter ever. He has respect for the legends before him. Amazing. So much respect for this champ. CHAMP!!!!!!!!!@
Cus taught Mike everything he knows about boxing history, mike was blessed by an angel crossing paths with Cus. MIKE is the GOAT
Pure class , in the ring and out. I like seeing him in a good space now. thanks for sharing your wisdom with us .
great to see micky happy in good place ,he knows his history of game should write book and his thoughts great place hall of fame ,,,,
Yep he's in great shape too right? Glad to see Mike's life in order I love that dude he's my Brookyln homeboy been thru alot...
yes i agree to make it out and survive with so many people hanging on read alot of his life film you tube seems at peace kiki and children and good friends he can trust brother
Say what you will about Iron Mike, he is a student of the sport. Cus, Jacobs and Cayton sat him down and had him watching old fight films until he became an A+ student. This man can tell you about each fighter on the wall, guys we've never heard of, but deserve to be recognized. To the point where Tyson should be hosting the tour of the Hall of Fame. It's important to me that these great old fighters receive the respect they deserve. CHAMPIONS LIVE FOREVER!!!
It would be such an honor to met such a humble man.. Mike’s eyes reveals a new man.. a loving spirit.. Mike you’re an inspiration!
mike tyson is an encyclopedia of boxing
One of my favourite Mike Tyson videos, I hope it stays here for eternity
Wise words: You are a part of this history. 12:34 Mike never looked at himself in the old greats league. Because he was inspired by the old time greats. Looked up to them because they were heroes.
Its amazing how smart he is. 99% people can't do or remember all the information about fighters and dates.
A true student of the sport.
Thotchu Thot The First unbeatable old JACK JOHNSON T-Shirt , I want one, JACK JOHNSON CAME TO AUSTRALIA AND TOYED WITH OUR HEAVY WEIGHT CHAMP LIKE A CAT 🐈 PLAYING WITH A MOUSE 🐁 . He was like a foot taller and literally made Tommy Burns at 5:7 tall a complete joke... Look Burns up and you will see that it wasn’t boxing skills but just the balls to get broken bones and smashed teeth back then amongst white fighters. The first fight that should have happened but didn’t was Johnson vs Dempsey. I’m 99.9% shore Dempsey didn’t want to fight a black man. Seeing he was happy to fight WILLARD ID SAY DEMPSEY WOULD HAVE BUT THE WHITE ESTABLISHMENT didn’t want there white Hero to lose . Most would agree I think Jack Johnson would have won but DEMPSEY WAS A SMALL SMASHER WHO IF 1 landed , his aggression might have made JOHNSON a touch more respectful then playing around.
you just got to show mike the love he deserve he is a real nice humble person
This is the most enjoyable non-boxing behind the scenes video of Mike Tyson ive seen, looked like he was having such an enjoyable day looking at all the history and his knowledge base of boxing history is absolutely amazing. Imagine boxers fighting 40 -50 rounds way back in the day and some boxers fighting just for food-!! I really liked seeing this side of Mike after all the crazy years when he was fighting his ass off getting used by people who didnt care about him and so much money stolen from him after all his hard work. It seems like he's in a much better place now emotionally and thats great to see. Heres to better times now Mike.
When I was a little kid I heard about this American boxer who bit the ear off another boxer! it was all over the news in my home country (Iran). I couldn't imagine how this could have happen! I remember I thought to myself how vicious this guy could be!
Many years later, I got to watch his interviews, his matches and read about the story of his life and understand that despite sometimes being angry and out of control, deep inside he is a lovely person! I got to know that you cannot judge someone by looking at a single point of their life and one horrific incident cannot define a person!
Mike Tyson, you are a hero!
Mike is awesome. Nobody is perfect and this guy has been through a lot and came out on the other end with a great sense of humor. Proud of you Mike!
Showing the youngest heavyweight champ much love.
I love these types of footage,you feel like a fly on the wall as opposed to an intrusive direct interview. You get to see them act naturally
I always liked listening to mike about Cus and boxing. Walking book of knowledge.
The best scene was the final scene: Tyson in the Old Madison Garden Ring surrounded by mementos of great boxers and asking to have his towel included among the robes.
Mike is full love man. You see with people and it's all genuine.
Mike your the greatest. Im glad life has been good to you finally.
So happy Mike is doing good.
Man has had one of the most unique life's ever.
Tyson still looks in fighting condition.
I like the fact that he is very interested, he's impressing those guys around him. He didn't disappoint.
Mike you always been inspiration, as a brooklyn born kid growing up watching you I learned nothing was impossible, no obstacles that cant be overcome. Thank u Mike we love u the last true peoples champ.
Man I love Mike Tyson. Have done since I was 10 years old.
Mike should work there once a month it would bring loads of visitors
What makes Mike Tyson even greater is his people skills, he has become the most beloved legendary figure in boxing .
He has become such humble person now :) I have been following his journey closely and have seen all documentaries and youtube footages and mannnnnnn his life story is rich..
This little hall has more history than all of UFC/MMA.
warms my heart seeing mike happy enjoying life
Watching Mike examine all the artifacts on display--his knowledge of and interest in the subject matter is demonstrably vast; it's almost as though he took place in boxing history's most notable events since the sport's infancy. 'Gotta love Mike Tyson. I almost don't even want to call him "Iron Mike," as he has once again reinvented himself, and captures the hearts and imaginations of audiences worldwide.
I love Mike, my all time favorite fighter. His boxing knowledge is undeniable.
Thanks for sharing. Such a interesting insight.
Great upload. Thanks ✌️
Mikes a good guy never forgets old friends
Always a pleasure to watch a man enjoying something he loves.
The passion knowledge and realness...pure Mike Tyson!!!
love it he is an amazing Historian he said he isn't but believe me he is
What an unbelievable fighter he was. I've still not seen anyone with the kind of aura he brought to the ring.
Mike definitely knows his boxing history. It was interesting to listen to him talk about it and get his opinion on different fighters
Hi when Mike talking it’s like he’s going in with a jab or body shot he just awesome
As far I see .Mike tyson knew all of the past era's fighters very well..his knowledge in boxing is much higher then we know !!
That's why he respects the past old era's fighters...
And I don't think so any fighters know about old fighters facts and in today's era iam pretty sure today's fighters doesn't even know a single facts about old & past era's great fighters..
Mike tyson just full with knowledge on boxing..
That's why he is the greatest fighters if all time .he really deserve to be in that status..
👑👑👑
It takes a real man to know his mistakes and rectify them and say sorry to to whom he wronged and change for the Better am happy for tyson
I would have loved to be there WOW
Nice one . This was great to see .
I would have loved to have been there, that would have been an awesome day, getting to meet and chill with Mike Tyson at the boxing hall of fame.
Bill Maykuh yeaaahhhh - u said it
Love it The IBHOF should be Respected and the Induction Ceremonies should be on Showtime or ESPN
I can see there are a lot of good people in the world than bad people Mike is back on his life happiest than ever coz ,good people around him .
