Mike Tyson's epic 2003 Hotel lobby brawl

**ross** · 08-02-2012 01:49 PM

In the eighties he was the most famous person in the world next to michael jackson, im not sure there is anyone comparable today to the fame they had then as no one is consistantly in the headlines as much. Tyson had his own nintendo game, was a spokesoerson for the FBI, was sponsored by pepsi etc. Maybe David Beckham comes close?

I wish hed get off that vegan diet too. Have you seen how thin his neck has gone? Maybe thats not excercising but bis neck especially looked visably smaller after he lost weight.

I don't think Beckham is anywhere near the worldwide megastar Tyson was. I think he looks better than he did when he was fat, no matter how thin his neck is lol

yea, I saw Mike at Wrestlemania in Miami (hey I got in for free lol), and Tyson looked tiny compared to all these wrestlers lol, was the shortest of the bunch and looked very skinny

I heard v Tyson poked Warren in the eye but I also heard he got his own back and made Tyson sign something in the Saverse fight dressing room. Think that's why Tyson went a bit mental and blasted out poor Lou and said he wanted to eat Lennox children and never came back to England.

We've gotten a bit off topic, but these are some good Tyson stories none the less

During the Lewis fight Tyson was smoking pot and was not taking his training seriously but the British media thought they would make out he was training hard to build up the fight. Corrupt gits.

That hardly makes them currupt

I remember seeing a picture aken of Mike on a beach in Maui where his traininc camp was. In this picture he was stood in his pants, on the beach with agroup of hippys smoking potwith them

I remember another one of him jogging...... with his baby in a buggy! Maybe if your normal bloke at home and want to getfit but not when your the highest profile athlete in the world about to fight in one of the mosthigh profile fights ever!

He had abunch ofyes men around him therefor his moneyand to do as they were told. Idiots like that Steve "crocodile" Fitch! Who was he and what the fuck did he know about anything? He used tocome out with shit like "we call the sparring ring the killing floor"
