Good interview. Mike is still a mess.

[P4P GOAT]

Okay this is my take on what i heard from Mike in the interview. He strikes me as a VERY insecure person. I think Mike is so insecure that he cannot contemplate that someone could like him for the person he is as apose to who he was(Heavyweight champ of the world)

This is why i believe he does bad things, because he is testing those people, if they walk away from him he has been proven right. I think its kind of a self destruct button.

His insecurity's seem to consume his thoughts. Ive been a bit hard on him in the past, but you cant help feel sorry for the guy, because its so obvious that he has these demons.

I want to see the interview by Charlie Rose when Mike was younger. I wonder if I e-mail the Show they can post it up on their website.

Not positive, but maybe it was because he was bullied a lot when he was a kid and didn't have any male friends until he started to whoop some ass. It took fighting to get friends. They liked the fighter and what Tyson could do but did they really know the person who was Mike as a kid before he started to show his anger and fight back?

I hope he enjoys the rest of his life. He has been through a lot of hardship.
