    6. Lack of remorse or guilt
    7. Shallow affect

    9. Parasitic lifestyle
    10. Poor behavioral controls
    11. Promiscuous sexual behavior
    12. Early behavior problems
    13. Lack of realistic, long-term plans

  2. Who gives a Damn! can we give all the Tyson threads a rest, why are people so fascinated by a guy who's been out of the ring for 3 years and hasn't won a fight in ages??:huh
    For his sake he better not F@CK UP again, he's on probation for the drug charge if he get's busted again (and he probaly will):deal his ass will be going back to the slammer..

    Your a ****ing ******* for asking that question.
    Mike Tyson is entitled to his own privacy and space.
    The same as you.
    Leave the guy alone.
    Or provide data about youself -- name, where you live, what you do, who you **** etc.

    Get the picture.
     
  6. Why is Tyson ****ed up by Robin Givens, Don King and of all people Givens mother:huh, Mike is a grown adult responsible for his own actions, why blame others:-(..

    He's undoubtedly an intelligent man....he's undoubtedly a psychopath too. Sociopath? That's barely breaking the crust.

    Tyson was already troubled before Robin Givens, ruth Roper, and Don King.

    Cus's "perform in the ring and i'll look the other way to your bad actions" attitude did not help.

    Neither did his abusive childhood.

    he might be but he could sure fight so who cares? same thing with lamotta to whomever mentioned his name. and what did lamotta do that was so bad anyway? so he lost his temper and hit his woman once or twice, things happen.
