All media had their eyes on the boxer Mike Tyson in the last period. Tyson was put in the spotlight this time because of an incident that he had on a plane. A passenger seating behind Tyson was provoking him. After a couple of minutes, when he was not able to take it anymore, he threw some jabs at him leaving him bloodied and sore.
There are a lot of rumors about what led the fighter to such an aggressive response. However, the exact reason is still not completely clear. Regardless of what it is, the solution to the problem might have been much different. By simply contacting the flight attendant. As a result of his fiery personality Tyson will now face charges.
Mike Tyson Almost Attacks Another Fan
Not a month has passed since the occurrence of the incident that put a light on the ex-boxer, a new one was on the verge to happen the past weekend.
While in Vegas, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, Tyson was attending an event before the Shakur Stevenson vs Oscar Valdez fight. Friendly as he is, he took photos with fans and spoke with them in one of the walkthroughs leading to the main hall. However, this friendly appearance was to be switched with an aggressive one really fast.
It is widely known that Tyson is a short-fused guy who does not tolerate when someone violates his personal space. When at the arena hall, in the river of fans, a woman that was walking behind the boxer tried to stick her finger up the boxer’s nose, or eyes. It is not clear what exactly she was aiming at.
The fighter immediately reacted when he sensed what was about to happen. He turned back to confront the one who was trying to reach him and got in a fighting stance. However, when he spotted that it was a woman, he pointed to his security to escort him out of there fast.
The controversial life of Mike Tyson is full of such incidents. He is no stranger to violence outside the ring. Some of the incidents end in a good fashion, and some not so much.
For example, back in 1992 Tyson faces a conviction for rape and is in prison for three years. In 1997 he is disqualified from a fight for biting off his opponent’s ear. In 1998 he assaulted several people after a car incident in Maryland.
It seems that the Baddest Man on the Planet is a magnet for problems and incidents. Seventeen years after his official retirement, he is still in the tabloids. Judgments and praising are still targeting him.
Since 2017 he is a proud owner of a weed farm in California. Tyson owns about 20 acres of land, all seeded with marihuana. He is a major advocate for the use of marihuana for medical issues.
Seems like he finally managed to knock down a whole part of the USA. Everywhere where it is legal, Tyson’s weed is prospering and making a great deal of money for the ex-boxer.
