I wish I could speak like him..

[The Great Shark]

"One morning I woke up and found my favorite pigeon, Julius, had died I was devastated and was gonna use his crate as my stickball bat to honor him. I left the crate on my stoop and went in to get something and I returned to see the sanitation man put the crate into the crusher. I rushed him and caught him flush on the temple with a titanic right hand he was out cold, convulsing on the floor like a infantile ******."

Uncommon tenderness and freakish rage living together in that quote. Mike's whole trip nailed right there in one anecdote.

Brilliant poetry from the man himself:

?I'm a ******, but do you think Jesus would love me? I think Jesus would have a drink with me and discuss why are you acting like that? Now, he would be cool. He would talk to me. No Christian ever did that and said in the name of Jesus even. They'd throw me in jail and write bad articles about me and then go to church on Sunday and say Jesus is a wonderful man and he's coming back to save us. But they don't understand that when he comes back, that these crazy greedy capitalistic men are gonna kill him again.?


"I'm just a dark guy from a den of iniquity. A dark shadowy figure from the bowels of iniquity. I wish I could be Mike who gets an endorsement deal. But you can't make a lie and a truth go together. This country wasn't built on moral fiber. This country was built on ****, slavery, murder, degradation and affiliation with crime."

Tyson has a way with words, and is actually very well spoken.

I mean he uses words like fornicate. Sounds like he is a victorian gentleman. Except he used it on a journalist in an aggresive manner.

This should be in the Lounge and not here.

"I don't understand why people would want to get rid of pigeons. They don't bother no one. "

The gentle nature of a convicted rapist.

It pisses me off when people who know nothing about Mike Tyson (other than the bad press and newspaper clippings they've read over the years), talk about how dumb he is/was. They use the quotes about him eating Lennox's kids, and the fornicating with the female reporter, but they never break out any of his intelligent ****.

To them he'll always be the train wreck of a celebrity that he was. To the rest of us, he's one of the most well spoken men in boxing, and easily one of the greatest boxing minds around right now on a technical standpoint.

Mike Tyson was a boxer, and the lounge is more for religious rants and basketball talk.

Ain't that the truth. Christ if I have to see one more "question for the Atheists" thread, or one more "Why do you believe in God" thread I'm going to paint the walls with my goddamn brains.

Ah. Didn't realise it was Mike Tyson quotes. Fair enough.
