Does he mention Robin Givens? I know many gave her & hr mother a bad rap, but wondering if my conspiracy theory is far off & she was made a villain in the media, or does Tyson agree & clown her..if he mentions her?

All's lost! Everything's going to shit!
The story I decided to stick with.
Con King.The problem.
He couldn't get in with Tyson's crew because they knew the deal. So Don began to woo her & mother. When learning of how strict Mike's $$ thing was, meaning his team got him whatever he wanted..BUT! They managed his money, so Don convinced Mike & Robin to make their own path and when they went to get a house, Tyson couldn't.
Don used this as leverage from a racist perspective.
"You see Robin, they treating you husband like a boy. IT MUST HAVE BEEN HUMILIATING to look for houses, & learn these white boys are holding your husband's money."
The mother comes in to help convince Robin to break him away from those dirty white dudes hording Mike's money.
Some years later I heard Robin tell a version like this lamenting..." I didn't realize that before they were his coach , trainer & team. They were his family. I couldn't see it then."
Then add on their youth, his zombie-drugs---psycho tropics that can bring out a rage if isn't on the regular, well that marriage was destined to fail.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Yes, he saw her but in an unconscious state and very frail. He did not like what he saw and pretended to his sister that he was going. She slapped/punched him when she found out she had died and he did not tell her. He then pretended that he did that because he did not want to break the bad news to her when in truth he was never going in the first place. Not a very nice person when you think about it.

Atlas made a big thing out of threatening Tyson with a gun but really it was less dramatic and more comical. Tyson said he patted the butt of Atlas niece and afterwards Atlas threatened Tyson with a gun. Teddy fired the gun up in the air as they were under the Police station Atlas ran off.
It messed Tyson’s hearing but Cus did not want to press charges as Teddy was on parole and would have been in trouble. Tyson belies that Atlas wanted Tyson to become a pro earlier because Teddy needed the money but Cus wanted to wait until after the Olympics because he hoped Tyson would win and get a big money TV contract.

Interesting, I think or thought one of the movies on Tyson has Atlas shooting near their home by a tree.
Another story says he caught up to Mike somewhere out the blue.
I take it seriously because Atlas is an emotional nut job. I believe Teddy when he said "if you touch my niece again, I will kill you. Their somber reunion a few years ago convinces me that Mike KNEW to stay away from Atlas.
But on a side note- no need for new thread. Tyson has a 430 plus acre resort called weed university. He found his Utopia!![]()

Jim Jacobs and Bill Cayton made Tyson sign a contract where they took 33% of his earnings. They then made him sign an agreement that if any one of them dies their wife would get their share. Cayton even got a Police escort to get Mike to sign because he could not get out of the house because of snow.
Tyson felt betrayed that they never told him that Jim had cancer in the time that he knew him.
Cus did not take a penny as he was bankrupt and preferred it that way. He was classed as an advisor in the contract.
Cus only asked that Tyson looked after Camille when he was in hospital. Tyson honoured that promise as Cus and Camille had adopted him and made him part of their family.
After each successful defence he would visit Cus grave and open champagne bottle.
