Doesn't matter how it was intended.. the interviewer took it as a IDLH threat (immediate danger to life or health). And I for one do not blame him AT ALL! lol😂... you got it champ. I'm out bud ✌️ like a pimp playa!..
He was crying. There are few things to make a man more upset than losing a child. It's immediate rage ,horror, and the greatest sadness you can imagine... all at once. I've had many of these interactions, and I greatly respect people who can understand and reconise that. Mike was ready to die or kill someone else. He needed to leave, reconised it, and did it. It was incredibly emotionally mature.
He said that split second was scary. I’d imagine that was the split second after he said “you have to leave” and before he said “you understand, thank you”
That wasn’t a threat , that was a man who doesn’t break down infront of cameras he politely asked you to leave and shook your hand and was polite all around then to and deal with emotion alone .
No. You are a little off base. I’ve seen that look from a man capable of terrible things. It wasn’t that he cared about breaking down. It’s the rage of losing your child.
Exactly. Thank you! I’m in recovery myself and saw a lot of trauma in my using years that are now surrounded by shame and guilt in my mind. I 100% felt what he said right there. He just needed some space.
He shakes his hand, says thank you politely and even smiles for a second, trying to show he's not mad at him. I think MT reacted absolutely reasonable 👍
@@tanneralberson2772it wasn't a threat, it was a warning. Mike was holding back something that no father should ever feel, and that feeling is dangerous for everyone around him. Dealing with some demons is harder than you know.
@@tanneralberson2772its because the guy in giving the interview laughed under his breath. Listen very closely after Mike said "I couldn't handle it at all". who in the F would laugh at someone emotional, pouring his heart out?! That old fart lucky he didn't die.
Yeah, but the racist jerks (including apparently the interviewer) who put this crap out there to try to get some click bucks certainly are trying hard to imply that.
He was in no way being threatening, he was being polite asking for the interview to end as it brought everything back in a sudden wave of emotion and needed to escape. Bless him.. 😢
He was not threatening the interviewer however He talks about considering shooting up the hospital his daughter was at, directly after her death. It feels like he is about to snap every time the topic is touched on (in interviews at least). I don’t think the poor guy was ever able to truly grieve her loss. I pray someday he finds peace.
@@kowengrogg2546but... Even Joe Rogan noticed Mike's energy change, the table that day, in the JRE podcast studio... It wasn't big enough, Joe could feel it! Mike is Mike!
You can literally see Mike has so much pain in his eyes and the instant switch when he tells him to go you see he goes into a very dark place where nobody is going to be safe around him. It was a polite warning letting him know I'm about to get extremely violent.
Some people have just lived under a rock there whole life and get afraid of people showing too much emotion because they’ve never been through anything so they don’t understand
Everyone has a weakness. I'm a retired fighter, and a father. I was pretty tough in my day too. Maybe not Tyson tough, but tough enough. I would be breaking down too. Heartbreaking.
@@jacqulinenijman5329 Right. It was his eyes but then he was like "You understand, right?" It was tough for him speaking about the loss of his baby girl.
So knowing mike from seeing and hearing so much of him thats actually him in the last seconds before he cant hold it all back anymore. Like if any little thing hits or someone tells him to hang on or something hes going to go off. The way his daughter died... we cant blame him for the anger over heartbreak
We have Cus to thank for that. Taught him to be a real gentleman. I’ve often seen some of his classiest/most human moments when he’s hurting or angry. But I’ve also seen plenty of the opposite so what do i know. But we are lucky this clip was captured. A lot of lessons to be learned from this vid
@@adr77510 the fact is it can be both. If you have ever lost a loved one you would understand. The other fact is, Tyson recognized his limits and ended the interview before something bad actually happened. The interviewer was clueless.
Mike has suffered loss on many levels but two things that can never be taken from him is his courage of a savage warrior and heart of a loving father. There will never be another man or champion like him.
Yeah, agreed. But I don't think Mike trusts the media, and for good reason. He can at times seem like he feels like he's being used and exploited (maybe some truth to that). So yes, he was respectful... but that shift in him was pronounced and pretty frightening. Dude is still Iron Mike.
Idk i saw his eyes change. I think mike knows himself and gave the guy his warning cause Mike knew the interviewer didn't intend to be invasive. Look at the eyes.
If you lose your parents you're an orphan. If you lose your wife or husband you're a widow or widower. There is no word for the pain of losing a child.
@@valerie190makhi @valerie190makhi I dont usually post sympathy comments on things, but I am truly sorry this happened to you and your little one. She never got the chance to grow up and live a life, but her memory will live forever in your heart. She was probably too precious for this world anyway.
Sometimes people can remain humble and real,but assertive at the time. The death of a child can make life very real and in your your face type reality that haunts you.
Right! It’s not “you have to go” cause I’m about to beat your ass it’s more like “ you have to go” because I don’t want to cry on camera he even says “you understand right” He made his whole career on being hard he doesn’t want to lose it with a camera shoved in his face and either would anyone else
@@Misssydneyi wouldn’t necessarily say just that, I think this is more so on the fact that yeah, hes a star and and hes saying some pretty heavy stuff on camera, like he knew “I had to get high” didnt feel good to say to a camera while at the same time hes feeling really heavy while talking about his daughter. Like theres just a lot of shit going through his head at that moment, he just knew it wasn’t a good time to talk at that moment because yeah, it coulda gotten worse. but you get me? I wouldn’t say its much about keeping that “hard” look he has.
That look in his eyes when he said you have to go now right, you understand! That was terrifying because he looked like a pitbull that was being nice enough give you a bark before he bites!
💯 yup, so tired that people always talk shit like he is a monster. He wanted the interviewer to leave so he could mourn. Fuck me this makes me sad to see
I think that he was getting pissed off and didn't want to kill him. MT lives in Vegas, my home town. Mike went through a shitload of abuse from EVERYONE INVOLVED WITH HIS LIFE. After his trainer/ father figure died. Mike lost it all to the fucken leaches in the boxing world 10s of millions of dollars. His wife sued him for rape... and won got millions for years. He's got or had serious anger issues, he was a monster in the ring for a reason. He lives well now and we don't hear much about him but his life is better. Thank God
I think Mike looked at him after he said “I couldn’t handle it” and remembered he was just another cold zoo-goer that didn’t actually give a rip about him or his situation or his feelings. Edit: I finally found the full interview, and they got with Mike before the left and Mine said “it’s in, I gotta grow up and stop crying”. And the interviewer guy said “it’s okay Mike, you’re allowed to cry.” He was actually just embarrassed, and felt vulnerable.
That interviewer, was petrified when Mike said that, after all who asks a person a question like that ? Were you the same person the next day, fr that’s what you ask a father who buried his baby girl? I’m gonna say he’s lucky Mike held back. I didn’t even know any of this. I’m sure many didn’t, What was the guy trying to do? And why is he sitting in a circle talking to people about how scared he was ?
@@tonybalongna....the interviewer was asking personal questions that forced MT to tap into a negative place that he didn't want to go. MT already knew that man was going to keep DIGGING and PROBING for an an emotional response that would get him higher ratings AND MT IS INTELLIGENT ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT MAN WAS PLAYING A DANGEROUS GAME. That man wasn't concerned for his well-being, just the ratings ❤
I have so much respect for Mike Tyson, he battled his demons and made a choice to get help, some never ask for help, may they Rest In Peace. God Bless you Mike. 🪶🖤🙏🏼💀🪶
Did you not hear the switch in his voice, man went from sad to ready to kill. I'm not saying he's an animal, he's just Iron Mike a man who would cry for you over the can of whoop ass he's about to open on you
@phillipaquino895 absolutely! Other ppl commenting that Mike didn't want to cry in front of journalist had it all wrong. That absolute shift in his demeanour was him recognising the monster was going to surface and he didn't want it happening. Journalist was right when he said it was the most terrifying few seconds of his life. When my own daughter died at 3yrs old totally unexpectedly and suddenly I know how angry I felt, so can totally understand what raw visceral emotions he to this day experiences over the loss of his daughter.
I knew a man who could be terrifying. I’ve seen that look. You don’t argue, you don’t question. You follow direction or curl up on a ball till the storm passes.
@@brendafitzgerald3797: soo sorry 4yr loss, did u notice how much mike tyson was sweating in tht interview after he said those chilling words,u hav2 go . I bet mike tyson would hav found the nearest bag and boxed it until he dropped😢😢😢.
He was in unbearable pain and couldn’t talk about it. He was respectful to you, even said thank you. It wasn’t a threat. Did you look in his eyes? I feel so bad for him 😢
He was polite and I thought maybe he was about to start crying and did not want to show that in an interview. For whatever he has done or been I believe he is a good father.
You didn't lose a child you as an asked about your dead child. Mike apologized and said that he was sorry that he had to leave because he was digging into the feelings of my emotions asking questions about his child.
Yeah, your three year old daughter killed in an accident at home…. As a dad of a girl who is about to turn three, I can honestly say there wouldn’t be anything worse…. I can only imagine (feels like imagining a nightmare) the anger you would feel every second. At the world, at anyone that could e helped, and most of all yourself.😢. I’ve lost a lot of people close to me, in different ways. But I can imagine any of it being worse than losing my baby girl. To add being interviewed about it. Argh, he showed some much restraint and wisdom in telling him “you have to go now” Shit was about to get really dark, and bad.
The camera rolled on, and Tyson was very polite, even offering an apology. I appreciate how this interviewer managed to turn the event into a narrative about himself in a series of interviews recently, casting Mike in a monstrous light.
Totally agree. I'm sure it would have made him feel so much better in that moment to pound the absolute heck out of that guy. But he didn't do it. He has really evolved. Respect to MT.
@@nannem9716 That dude would die a thousand times if Tyson for some reason fails to control his emotions. He's a very lucky guy to be alive and it's astonishing to me that most people in the comment section (not you guys) couldn't realize that.
Is so not ok to deal with emotion like that especially as a man, let truth be told nowadays the westerners encourage men to deal with emotion like little girls
@@TheGonzogibby Reality and honesty can be chilling. I'm sure the interviewer didn't mean it in a way like he's scared of him. It was simply surprising for him i'm sure.
@@ok9908 you’re right, they are. But no, he meant he was afraid. I mean, I get it - but turning mikes very visceral pain into a kudos-getting anecdote on talk shows isn’t very cool imho
My heart just aches for Mike, man. I felt the pain of losing my Mom 2 years ago replayed again! He could barely speak! God bless you Mike…you have a 👼 now watching over you. 🤍🪽💫
Yeah, that's what I'm not getting here. People act like this is the most terrifying thing in the world, but Mike is being completely reasonable and courteous.
@ginge641 He's saying he feels himself losing control. Watch the eyes, they literally change for an instant. If he snaps, he could actually kill some one.
@@madguy8485Lmao bruh this ain’t like in the movies. He isn’t gonna kill anyone, he is telling to him leave because he doesn’t wanna ruin the podcast with his emotions. He isn’t gonna attack anybody bruh
@@madguy8485Bruh please stop, it’s cringy. He’s just letting the interviewer know he has to leave him because he’s getting emotionally overwhelmed and wants to be to himself. What do you think that Tyson is the hulk and kill some dude who’s doing nothing to him for no reason?
He actually said to him also that he’s not supposed to cry. Why does he feel a man is not supposed to cry? It’s cause we born to be that way. But it’s ok to break.
With all due respect to Iron Mike, those were real tears and sadness, but no real emotion. He broke down and tried to hold it in as long as he could. He thought crying would make him less of a man. I'm glad he got himself back together now
He has found some peace. He has done an amazing turnaround in his life. He deals with things a lot better than he used to. I been following Mike since the 80s. He’s such an interesting guy. That’s a hard topic for any person.
He is just a piece of garbage, thats all ! You admire a sick, who reaction to her daughter Death is getting high in cocain ?? Man what went wrong in your childhood ???
@@EatonShitson hahaha, sick ! You forget the all the crazy shit he did ? F... off, i'm crazy and i tell you je is dangerous, and he will kill someone, you will see !
@@thegavinsdad1234yea that might just be what happened to his daughter.. he lost control. Hope I’m wrong tho. “A moment of patience when you’re angry can spare you a thousand days of sorrow.”
Makes you wonder if there is really god there, allowing small babies anf childrens getting killed, born with life threatening genetic defects, something so pure. If there is god and seeing all this is one of thr most sadist being of all
The pain in his eyes! Everybody see Mike as a big tough guy but losing a child will break down the strongest of men! That moment Tyson needed a hug and for someone to say I got you!
@dandavies7539 I never want to experience that pain. I'm 45 & Iron Mike got me into training boxing. I've watched him for years now. I'm not a big celebrity worshipper but I love that guy. Mike has always been very emotional but the pain of his daughter passing is honestly too much to bare. Have a good 1.😊
@@adrianmichell2751 exactly!!! I think it's s*** journalism when journalists asked questions like this. I have seen a handful of people respond in the same way you did. How the how do you think I feel? How stupid that this journalist is saying it was chilling and scary or whatever.
Everybody needs to hear the song Dirty Laundry by Don Henley! One line in the song is a newscaster delivering the news and telling you about a plane crash with a gleam in her eye!
It is the worst pain I ever felt losing my oldest Son. I have been shot, stabbed, burned,and numerous motorcycle wrecks and the pain was no where near as painful as losing my Son.
A sensationalist journalistic prod he felt his heart skipping a beat . The probing of a grief ridden man who is a remarkable man and a man who is a survivor. You shone a light on the shadow and shit your pants with what you're looking at. Mike Tyson was pushed and prodded bye you're ilk . Danger Will Robinson!!!!
I think Mike did him a humongous favor by being super humble and the interview gave him the respect by not arguing, shaking his hand and getting his mic off asap! Poor guy
@@H4S- Things are far from perfect. There are many place we cannot live. We exist here because we evolved to live here over millions of years. There is no reason to believe in any god. You don't even know what one is.
This is not the first time I felt compassion for mile but definitely the most heart wrenching…so much power and he was for that moment a helpless child..disarmed
@@bonniejosavland3227I'm so sorry for your aunt! Kinda reminds me of my grandma. She lost her mom when she was really young and her dad married soon after to a woman they loved. She died and the next step mom treated them like trash. Her dad then died. She got married and had 12 children. 2 died as infants,1 died just shy of his 3rd birthday and 1 died at the age of 20 when he drowned. When my dad,the baby of the 12 kids,was a teenager her husband died. She would end up losing 2 more children before she passed away. One from cancer and one from a heart attack. So literally half of her children died before her. I don't know how that woman got up in the morning! 💔
He asked you to leave because you were the first person to get him to truly open up about his feelings on that day…I couldn’t imagine…My prayers go out to you Mike Tyson and to your family as well…
He lost a child and was overwhelmed. Unless you have lost a child you cannot understand. He was very polite and the interviewer blew it out of proportion.
I buried my full term 9 month old son, Alas born still. But i buried him 7 weeks before i turned 18. My girlfriend was just turned 17, im 38 now she's 37 and we've just broke up in june. We share another son and three daughters now. Im still broken. Still to this day, ill never forget that time. It was horrific
@@justinneal2266I also thought he had bad grammar but no, just bad punctuation. What he means is “That is the nicest (way that) the toughest person on earth (i.e. Tyson) could be (to this person or anyone, especially in such situation)”
The pain was so intense and so deep. He wasn’t threatening anyone, it was so close to the surface that he could not discuss it any longer. So sorry for that pain and the loss of your daughter.
There is nothing, and I mean nothing, in this world that can prepare you for the loss of a child. It's been 27 years, and it still haunts me like yesterday...
Mike Tyson has such a gentle pure ❤ he's so sweet, loving and cares about everything good in the world. He's not motivated by money AT ALL! He is a healer. Thank you for being such an inspiration to me and all of gods creation 🙏❤️🌟🌹 your AMAZING! 🏆 Go get em tiger 🐯
You, idiots, missed the real point. These interviewers are using his reaction to his daughter's death as a means of public entertainment. Oh, woe to the interviewer for being scared after trying to exploit Mike`s emotions for the rating. Having the interviewer come on a whole panel to further the exploitive entertainment. You people are sick.
@@bobbylacy2374you’re delusional for judging this off of one clip. The next part of the interview was Mike saying “I gotta be a man I can’t cry” as he stood up and the interviewer calmly said “it’s okay to cry, Mike” and it was a very heartfelt and beautiful moment. But here you are saying the interviewer had no compassion off of a clip that showed him for literally 5 seconds 😂
@@r.d.9399 I think honestly there's a lot of hype in that. What I saw was a man in pain who couldn't bare the interview anymore. Likely because he's smart and knows the media are the devil themselves. He wasn't going to give that bag of bones the satisfaction of that kind of footage. I don't blame him. Our deepest pain isn't for the public at large.
In the last three years I lost both of my sons. When you go to the depths that you go to with that kind of grief and when you have problems with rage and anger you have to know yourself! I have become a recluse since then. I've always had an issue with anger and rage and I don't trust myself. If you knew the circumstances especially of my oldest son's passing you would understand why. When the most precious things that you have are taken from you and you have nothing left to lose you have to know yourself inside and out! Things can go left really fast. And if you take this frame-by-frame you can see the switch in his eyes. Where they go from shiny to dull. I know that Darkness!
