He has had quite a life on both ends of the spectrum, it's so easy to see and hear how enlightened, authentic, at peace and truly happy he is. He had everything but had nothing, He now has nothing but finally has everything! Amazing indeed!

He proved to himself that he was great beyond his god-given talents by coming out the other side of the spotlight a good man. I admire the fuck out of mike tyson, he deeply inspires me

@@erikarmstrong1831 Yes, underdog. Despite being undisputed WC, he still was an underdog. Every guy he met in the ring thought he could take MT down with ease, cause they were taller, heavier, had more reach, were smarter than Mike. Mike was quite small compared to most other heavy weights. He always had to fight 'in'. Mike always felt scared. Scared to be beat. To be in oblivion again. To not matter. Never forget, aggression is only a way to express fear. When do you get the most aggression? When someone fights for his life. When he's filled with the fear of death. Mike fought every fight with the strongest fear of being defeated. That's what made him the most aggressive boxer man has ever known. Ali was an artist, Mike was - as he calls it himself - ferrocious. Out of fear of becoming unsignificant again. So, yes, underdog.

Cus gave Mike the best gift any 14 year old child could have is consciousness. Mike was using the Law of Attraction the whole time. WOW he inspires me so much. I love you Mike you should never hate yourself bc everything you went through was to show us kids that had a hard life and that have made some horrible mistakes that we can be forgiven and get redemption as well. Your living did not go in vain. You were chosen Mike and you are the best, smartest, and fastest fighter I have ever seen in my book and my kids will know about you.

I also have a complicated past, as Mike will put, so is gonna be interesting, looking for it and full admiration for Tyson, for the calm person he has become in the last 20 years or so

His story is an example of what can happen when you cant curb your basic instincts and fall in with the wrong people while the govorment has your card marked making an example of a 'bad role model'. Its amazing a grown woman beauty queen agrees to pay the 'baddest man on the planet' a hotel room visit at 11pm at night willingly and not over a cup of green tea then cries rape later so she can cash in and get her fifteen minutes of fame .

Very well put. I have his book and as I was turning each page I just got the feeling of "He needed to write this down to release it all from his system" You are totally right though, he doesn't want pity or sympathy, he just wants to be recognised as a man who accepts he has done wrong but is doing everything in his power to make it right. I don't think he realises himself just how brave and mentally strong he is now. A true true human champion in my opinion.

This is my favorite Mike Tyson interview, the fact that he turned the interviewer from a teacher to a student as the interview progressed is amazing to watch. The level of respect the interviewer had for Mike from start to finish is awe-inspiring, you can clearly see the sequence of events of a man with a 9th grade level of education talking to a professor who taught at Princeton University with countless accolades and at the end of the interview the professor is the one who felt inferior and wanted more. Mike is a special human being, he has reached a level of greatness that only a few can achieve but yet humble in his approach. His insight and wisdom go beyond his achievements in the ring, the stories at every turn helps us to apply them to our lives so that we do not make the same mistakes. A fantastic interview from beginning to end which is validated by a standing ovation.

Self destroying with drugs, but overcoming addiction for the love of family. To conquer one's own ego after such universal fame is the great winning fight.
