Thanks. Wow, from the look of the guys face Mr.Tyson held back a bit, should've made that DB bleed more.

I think the dickhead (not Tyson) was looking to get smacked to get some coin.

I just got reminded of this quote from years back

“everyone has a plan, until they get punched in the face”
—Mike Tyson

Mike has had anger issues pretty much his whole life.

He’s worked really really hard to not be that guy anymore.

Everyone has a breaking point.

I feel bad for Mike, he’s not had it easy and a lot of that is his own fault but he owns up to it and really tries to be better.

I have a lot of respect for him as a person.

Don King got all of Mike's money.

I guess the guy doesn't know that Mike bit off a guys ear once.

He can have a chunk of my ear for a couple hundred grand.
Which is probably what the dick was wanting. Funny to see him putting on a fake sad face after getting smacked.

Mikey should have given him a "Will slap"

Guy had it coming.

Put me on the jury and Mike is just fine. No monetary or liberty issues.

Don King is only worth 150 million. Someone else got Tyson's money. Unless he spent it....that's my bet.

How stupid would you have to be to pester Mr. Iron Mike Tyson on a plane, on a scale of 1 to 1,000 I'd guess you would have to be 1,000 % stupid.

I hope Mike gets a pass on this.

100%. But if you harass someone enough to provoke the exchange, (and there are witnesses/video), it’s probably not going to work. That was a pretty clumsy and obvious try. And the guy who did it is a world class douchebag with a long rap sheet.

And yeah, he’s lucky that he wasn’t in an elevator with Mike instead of both in airline seats. That would have been bloody.

Seems like every other one of these videos, there's a lot of video missing and with it the real story.

As to why he flies commercial, I work in business jet aviation, and a couple hundred million is airplane chartering territory not owning territory, unless you are ignorant of the costs.

A G650 for example costs well over 2 million without any flying time. 38K a month to park it, for starters. And depreciation is a serious consideration, I have seen privates sink in value at north of a million a month at times.

Billionaires own private jets. Millionaires borrow or rent them. At least the smart ones do. The even smarter ones fly commercial.
