Very interesting and yet sad at the same time... I do believe Mike is living well off as we speak regardless of how public his finances are. You can search using the same title to find episodes 2-11... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWHdqp9VHi8 Please post your comments.
i have a couple of his documentary and it is so sad what he has become is just an accumulation of a life time of heart breaks , everyone around him who cared about him and loved him died, and then others he started to trust ripped him off, he was never the most innocent of people but he was definitely under control with cus.
i've been a big fan of tyson but he really needs to grow a pair to face LIFE, needs to use his brain a little more than he's done for past 30 years, and needs to stop whining in every interview and actually do something. and a lot of people need to stop encouraging his whining by giving wasted, futile sympathy. mike - just shut up, use your head, and do something!
well he tried to do something when he started boxing, it hits you hard wen everyone around u dies, i agree that he does complain, but then again alot of boxers do, no one can say that his story is not sad, from a happy boy to a miserable suicidal bankrupt man.
i know life isn't always fair and easy. you just have to make the best of it. average joes in this very same country - the usa - have to deal with death in the family. someones sisters gets cancer, son gets sent to iraq so greedy oil companies can turn millions into billions at the cost of his life, etc - tyson isn't the only one. and lots of those unfortunate souls face it and make the best they can. of course no amount of billions could make up for having a tragedy-free life - but tyson was given 300 million to turn his ghetto life around and what does he do? waste it all and do crack. i repeat my first post - grow a pair, use your head, do something, stop whining. millions of americans do it every day. someone asks me who-tf am i to say this; true, i haven't been AS unlucky as many but i, we, all had our hardships. also- i don't find his WHINING interesting at all - think it is lame & boring. after the first 10 interviews - i got bored.
fair enough good points i do see what you mean. i just mean that maybe when lifes in the fast lane and your being manipulated left right and centre, someone who says he wants the best for you rips you off 30 million, a **** that quite possibly didnt happen. he does need to stay out of the limelight and settle down a little now, stay with his kids and maybe do some commentating.
That was a great Beyond on the glory, it really shows how he truly is in alot of his interviews, he seems to still have the brain of a 13 yearold in a body of muscle. I would really love to see Mike try and become a commentator for Showtime, his knowledge of boxing seems to be alot better than other boxers such as Lewis or Jones who has been off and on commentators for HBO over the last 6 or 7 years. It seems to me that hes one of the most respected and well liked in out of the boxing community, I would love to see him take Farhoods spot or even take Grays spot as a guy who just does interviews.
