What's even more stunning, in my opinion, is the fact that no matter how deep, intelligent, eloquent, human, or true something on RU-vid is, people still fucking dislike it...Y Tho?
You learn something new about Tyson in EVERY interview. He is actually coming across as one of the most intelligent celebrities ever imo. Not academic smarts, real deep intelligence on the most important parts of life! Yes always been real intelligent, just couldn't articulate it that well in his younger years. Top dude!!
Hes my idol. He was a broken kid raised in hell. I understand all the rage and his spontaneous weird answers. Now look at him. Completely changed man, humble as hell. Would love to hang out with him.
Tyson is officially one of my role models. It doesn't matter what he did in the past, but how he rose from it and overcame it. His words are wiser than any singer or actor in the biz. Mike Tyson's honesty and sincerity shows his struggle and above all, his heart.
You wouldn’t be saying this unless Mike had given several people permanent brain damage. Mike is just another person. You only love him because he hurt people. Think about that
"From My experience, if any little success I may have had." How modest. I'm one of the guys that go out the door being inspired by this guy every day. How much have most people accomplished when they were at the age of 19? He is constantly grilled in social media and is still able to be down to earth. I watch Tyson vids everytime I go to workout and hit the bags.
zerg ling the way he answer rand acted in the last question make me feel sorry for him bro. Mike Tyson has had everything in the past, money, fame, girls, friends. but now when he bankrupt and felt down. there is nothing around him. not even a friend. He was very lonely.
"This is not the toughest guys world, this is the smartest guys world he says and he is so right in that comment that the toughest and honest guys cannot survive until they play with the required rules o the new era of 21st century" be wiser my friend , here are the words of the wisdom of the one of the toughest guys ever lived on this planet. ...
The most ferocious fighting machine God ever created treated an obviously gay man with complete decency and respect. Mike Tyson has always been a better man than he wanted people to know he was.
lol creatures like you never fail to amuse me. God created "the most ferocious fighting machine" Tyson. People created countless actual machines that can kill Tyson in couple seconds. Sounds like this "God" thing is pretty useless.
Tyson's class. No heavyweight was as skilled as him, regardless of records. Nobody had that combination of speed, agility, power and offence. The head movement and accuracy was astounding.
Tony Gareth absolutely mate, I think Mike Tyson is one of the most talented boxer that ever born in our century. people usually say Mohamed Ali was the greatest but for me, He was not. The way Mike Tyson fight to his opponent drive us so excited.
People forget how BADASS Tyson really was. Combined with his openness. A great character like Iron Mike transcends all other tough guy before and after him. Because a tough guy will tell you his faults and his attributes with no fear of being judged. And iron Mike is takes it to an all new level. He’s the definition of “A Standup Guy “ .
Mike is so genuine, intelligent and down to earth. His sincerity and mature way of looking at life never ceases to amaze me. I wish him the best. dude has been through a lot
***** hahaha look at the hoster 's eyes. he was so scare, He thought in his head. Oh my God, how can I take the punch from this guy. look at his face, I could even die before he touched me
I think Mike Tyson is loved because #1 his skill #2 when he speaks it always seems sincere good or bad #3 despite his fortune and former ruthless tongue he seems like a down to earth person. ONE LOVE Mike... always be my favorite fighter
I appreciate Mike's sincerity every time he speaks and how he always tries to find some thing he can learn from in his past. In my opinion the most interesting person in the world
"In 50 years?.... that I'm the most destructive, ferocious fighter god has ever created. yeah, that's what I want." You could cleary see that soulless scary look he always loved to display once again on his face.
"Life is about losing. As we get older we lose our hair we lose our teeth our mothers our fathers our sisters. But its the ones who overcome their losses in life and can shun away adversary and are always willing to fight at every particular moment in life are the ones that are able to transcend..."
mazhar rehman Mike tyson has done Neck bridge exercise too much in order to build his neck there fore it hard for him to speak softly. I have done this before and quit after that because I figure out it s not good for your neck and brain.
Mike Tyson is intelligent , humble , articulate and incredibly self aware . To have gone through what he has gone through and to have this demeanor and attitude deserves alot of respect and I for one have a ton of respect for Mike T. Fascinating man .
0:27 Sacrifice and adaptation 1:49 Skill is repeatable, luck is not 2:37 Fame and premeditation 3:18 Life - Losing and transcendence 3:58 Fear, Respect and Love 4:46 Growing up, loss, change and gratitude
If he continues to devotedly work on himself, I think that there may be something profoundly positive about self discovery and the possibility of rehabilitating from a deeply painful life-story that he might also be remembered by. Keep going man!
Had he been born to a nice, wealthy family, he would have had a good career in any of the "professions" (Doctor, academic etc). Because he was born into poverty, guns and hookers, he became a boxer...and the greatest one at that.
templetonbob Because he was in a youth home for people with bad child hoods, and he saw people coming from the boxing gym across the street and he wondered why they were so happy being beat up, so he went there and discovered Boxing like that, if you dont believe me, try to find the interview where he said it. ( cant remember the title for it on youtube ) but i remember that he said all this in an interview and you can find it on youtube.
+Alex The Beard people like you should stay away from videos like these, maybe watch boxing or MMA for about another 10 years and you'll realise that Ali Fedor and Tyson are the goats
It's great to seen him recovered and ready to live his fight of the life to be better person than he was before. He is very smart and dedicated person, god bless you Mike!
WOW.... Mike has come a long, LONG way man.. Even more so after watching this i believe he is... The greatest man ever to step in the ring.. well done Mike..
Mike Tyson is one of the most misunderstood sports men of our time. He is intelligent, honest & speaks with a lot of sincerity. I have HUGE respect not just for his boxing achievements and god given ability but the way he has changed his life around and learned from his mistakes.
Mike is a clever, wise and articulate man. Mike Tyson is in the pantheon of great fighters. The fighters who beat him would never have lasted against him when he was focused. Those fighters should never ever mention having beaten him.
No doubt Mike will be remembered as the ferocious fighting machine he was, but I truly believe he will also be remembered as the wise, humble and inspiring man he became after that.
By the time he was 17 Mike knew more about boxing history, fights and past fighters than anyone in the world. Jim jacobs had the largest fight collection the the world, mike would train all day, and watch and analyse fights interviews and the conduct of each fighter all night long whilst cus would talk to him and aswer any questions he might have had. Every conversation they had was about him being heavyweight champion of the world. Mike Tyson, the Greatest fighter than ever lived...
thank you Mike for your inspiration u went from a man who people thought the worst to someone who people can relate to and find sincere! i really loved your docuementary!!
I totally agree! I said the same thing to my brother. Mike changed over the years, got smarter and calmer. The funniest thing happens when he is asked the last question, his expression changes and some residue of the beast within answers the question. I even think he felt uneasy reminding himself of the monster that lies within.
Interviewer: What will people remember about Mike Tyson 50 years from now? Tyson: That I was the most destructive, ferocious fighting machine that God ever created. 👏👏👏
Mike is in a much better place these days. I'm so happy for him and wish him the best. Still even in his darker days, Mike was the most exciting heavyweight ever. He was frightening, funny, insightful, and entertaining. He still posesses those qualities even to this day.
Whats crazy is despite verything you hear about him, he's clearly a really nice and very smart guy. I'm glad that he got past whatever problems he was going through in the past.
Man, I cried so much in the beginning of this interview, during his answer to the first question. You can see the deep pain and sadness in Mike. I sincerely hope he achieves the highest peace within himself and fights for his life back.
You can hear the pain in Tyson's voice too but also, show's how... determined a person he is as not too many drug addicts, and abusive people can so drastically change themselves like that. I am bipolar and am an addict etc. so can relate, I'm only young though, I'm trying to change now but, it's hard. But, haha, what's great is... even though Mike is tryna be humble and thankful now, he still ended by saying 'the most destructive and ferocious... (you know the rest)'. So he's still got that ha
This seems like a guy who, at a young age was at the top the world and had everything he wanted. But now he's learned humility and great lessons through age. I really can't help but give him my utmost respect now.
Hes my idol, im 16 and just started boxing, but watching this, looking in his eyes when he said what will people remember you as in 50 years and he said a fighting machine, it looks to me he doesnt like, he wants to remembered as somthing more, instead of a killing machine, a kind person. and thats what im taking away from this.
