Mike Tyson Interview goes bad.

[Miramonti]

That is awesome. "Mike, we're doing live TV." "I don't give a shit. What are you going to do about it?"

"I'm gonna fvck you up, Mike, that's what."

*turns and runs for life*

 

[SandEagle]

wow, he should have punched that the reporter in the face and bitten his ear off too.
how dare a canadian talk to an american in that manner?

 

[SP33Demon]

Tyson shouldn't have let that slimeball rattle him like that, but I love his honesty. Not sure he's going to make it in politics though, he's too honest and will end up knocking someone out the first time they insult him.

You might have to start looking for bombs soon anyways.

Have a nice day

 

[zinfamous]

Mike Tyson should be applauded for having the discipline not to kill that guy with a punch.

 

[futurefields]

tyson is a hero and he didnt rape that woman

 

[alkemyst]

tyson is a hero and he didnt rape that woman

QFT. America created Tyson and he did his job.

So sad how we crap on him today.

If anyone here hasn't seen it, he has great movie out...it's all stand up, but he fully explains his life and his choices.

 

[Jadow]

he did beat up Robin Givens though

and should have went to jail for Holyfield's ear

this man is unstable

 

[AznAnarchy99]

If anyone ever gets a chance, watch this movie.

People are dwelling on things he did 25 years ago. Tyson is a guy from the streets so he's rough around the edges but he's trying to be a better person and media personalities egg on him by bring up the past.

Again, dwelling on things that happened decades ago. Get real dude.

 

[Red Squirrel]

Hahaha I heard about this today and finally got around to watching it, I was expecting some big blowing up type deal but I can't believe how Tyson is calm and subtle about it, I think that makes it even more awesome. The "F U" at the end was priceless.

I've seen it his stand up is pretty horrible actually, and I was at a good upscale party when he did the ear thing, but he is in the Ray Rice category also.

I'd imagine might be someone else is.

Nice to see he's trying, but really, for what he's done in the past he casually makes what I do on a daily basis and is a bit of BS because of that.

Makes that amount for saying I'm sorry non stop.

I only said good for Mike, because of his reaction to the interviewer being the same way.

Is like watching one small skunk make a big skunk mad.

 

[Triumph]

Wait wait wait, why the hell am I the only one to notice this? You're telling me that a journalist thinks Mayor Rob Ford should be worried about how a celebrity with a criminal history could tarnish his image? You mean THIS Toronto Mayor Rob Ford?

Holy cr@p, turn the page and get off of 56k, this is 2014.

What the hell do you expect? Grew up dirt poor in the slums, bad education, bad childhood. The only thing he was good at was fighting, and he was basically taught to never back down and try to kill the other guy.

You think Football players lack class? Holy hell, Tyson was like 100x worse. Yet since then, he's cleaned up. That newscaster deserved the reaction he got. Frankly, Tyson handled it pretty damn well for someone with his life experiences.

 

[surfsatwerk]

The man likes Phil Collins as much as I do, he gets a pass on most atrocities both real and imagined.

 

[Printer Bandit]

that news anchor was floating like a butterfly.

 

[xaeniac]

mike is wild

 

[ThatsABigOne]

What a moron.

We crap on him today? No we don't you clown. There is a reason that pretty much everyone is standing behind Tyson on this interview, because "we" don't crap on him.

Yeah, making mike tyson mad is a stupid ass idea, even at his age, he could probably knock the living crap outa him.

Probably? lol. You might be dumber than alky.

 

[darkswordsman17]

The guy's logic is shitty, but then why the fuck is Tyson promoting Ford in the first place? The whole thing is just WTF. The reaction is totally blown out of proportion and the headlines over it have been stupid as hell. Tyson just said it was a shitty thing for him to say, which it was (although not for calling Tyson what he is, but for the shitty logic and trying to connect the two issues).

I'm also pretty WTF at the people trying to act like Tyson is some saint now. He still openly jokes about horrible shit he did back then. He's entertaining and he has made positive changes but he's still living off his old image too. Watch practically any interview and half of it is about how he went from being such a fucking psychopath to who he is now. He outright jokes about being a pussy towards women now compared to how he used to treat them. He's also openly admitted that he used to force himself on women. It's straight WTF that people are calling the rape conviction bullshit.

 

[ThinClient]

The thing about Mike is that he served his time. He was in a different place.

He's ton SO MUCH to repair his image, make right, and be a positive influence on society that it's almost in bad taste to call him out on it. He paid his penalties.

I really don't care. Rapists are pieces of shit. They will always be pieces of shit.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

What exactly makes the rape charges/conviction bullshit? I never looked much into it previously, but doing some quick Googling it looks worse than, say, that whole Duke LaCrosse team thing. And three years in prison for that is almost nothing.

This, although I'll add that it's not surprising to see alkemyst on a rapist's side.

EDIT:

On December 29, 2006, Tyson was arrested in Scottsdale, Arizona, on suspicion of DUI and felony drug possession; he nearly crashed into a police SUV shortly after leaving a nightclub. According to a police probable-cause statement, filed in Maricopa County Superior Court, "[Tyson] admitted to using [drugs] today and stated he is an addict and has a problem."[135] Tyson pleaded not guilty on January 22, 2007 in Maricopa County Superior Court to felony drug possession and paraphernalia possession counts and two misdemeanor counts of driving under the influence of drugs. On February 8 he checked himself into an inpatient treatment program for "various addictions" while awaiting trial on the drug charges.[136]

On September 24, 2007, Mike Tyson pleaded guilty to possession of cocaine and driving under the influence. He was convicted of these charges in November 2007 and sentenced to 24 hours in jail, 360 hours community service and 3 years probation. Prosecutors had requested a year-long jail sentence, but the judge praised Tyson for seeking help with his drug problems.[137] On November 11, 2009, Mike Tyson was arrested after getting into a scuffle at Los Angeles International airport with a photographer.[138] No charges were filed.

Yep, dude really fixed his life up.

I'm totally destitute and broke. But I have an Åwesome life, I have an Åwesome wife who cares about me. I'm totally broke. I had a lot of fun. It just happened. I'm very grateful. I don't deserve to have the wife that I have; I don't deserve the kids that I have, but I do, and I'm very grateful.

 

[Grooveriding]

He's a convicted rapist. Not many crimes are that foul. Fuck his tender sensibilities about his crime. He can GTFO and go home. Ford has been a blight on the city, so this whole fiasco is no surprise.
