    Whats crazy about Mike is that he really hates the attention .

    I attended the Hopkins Joppy fight in AC few yrs back an after wards me and my boy were leaving the areana ..We were heading down toward the lower level and the floor seats were letting out ..Low and behold by himself Mike Tyson walks out toward the escalator and this was just after he got his tatoo ..And people just swarmed him I was like abiut 3 feet and all I heard him say was " **** man I hate this I just want to get to my car "
    And he looked in my direction and I was what do I do :lol:

    I don't particularly see the problem here.

    Murnaghan attempted to explore a wide range of subjects with Tyson. Some he was more amenable to discussing than others. Murnaghan handled the situation well and so did Tyson. I would consider that to be a basic investigative interview. Oprah is not the news, therefore the questions and research time available is going to be significantly different.

    There is no story here other than Tyson acquitting himself well in an interview. Dermot Murnaghan would have conducted far more spiky interviews than this one with Tyson.

    ^ it was the way he asked the questions. He said pretty bluntly "you bit a guys ear" , you said this, did that. The dude then had the audacity to bring up his daughter. Mike was right when he asked "what are you trying to elecit out of me" , these interviewers are just leeches.

    That Sky **** was really trying to get Mike to say some crazy **** so they could spread it all over the tabloids and have an "exclusive"..... why would he bring up the stuff about his daughter - just because he's Mike people think they can ask him anything.....****...........and then to bring up the thing about being Muslim.......why did he even mention that and the war in Iraq..... Sky didn't ask Blair once anything about his beleifs being a closet Catholic and his decision to go to War based on his religion which would have been a more appropriate question...

    Mike did bits a guys ear and his daughter did die under tragic circumstances. Murnaghan is a journalist and would have been in dereliction of his duties not to ask about the subjects that stick out as rather major points in the mans life that may have shaped the world view of this intriguing man.

    As for Redondos comments, I would have thought it obvious that as former Prime Minister of Great Britain, Tony Blair would have insisted on having prior sight of the questions being posed to him and insisted on having the right of veto long before they got to air. I don't think Mike Tyson understood that he was going to get asked serious questions rather than the fluffy bs he might usually get asked. Regardless of that, he acquitted himself well and that should be the point here rather than getting carried away with a guy doing his job and quite frankly, doing it well.

    What exactly is a closet Catholic anyway?

    WoW, you can see Mike was excited in the beginning of the interview and that could have been one great interview, but soon as that piece of **** start bringing dirt from 15-20 years ago, Mike just like anyone, was getting aggravated!!!
    Then, the piece of **** had no shame and wanted to jump on to subject of tragedy with Make's daughter, that was it: Mike pretty much had to cut in and tell him DON'T TALK ABOUT IT!!! (If that ***** kept on, then Mike should have ripped his heart and shoved up to his ass!!!)
    Unfortunately Mike has had to deal with these type of scum all his life, so he got good at dealing with piece of **** like this one!!! (He could have said: **** you *****, You don't like it? Turn off your station!!!!)
    But it's painful to watch some absolute jerk off torturing the Iron Mike Tyson on TV like that!!! (I wish he'd "punch him in the tip of the nose and drove his nose to his brain", ****ing turd totally deserved it!!!!!!!)

    You think punching him on the nose would have been better?

    Murnaghan was doing his job, and Tyson doing his. Lets not get carried away on a nothing story.
