Comments Thread For: Mike Tyson Nearly Beat Up Michael Jordan During A Dinner In 1988

I'd put A 1988 version of Tyson, getting irate after a drink right up there with a Great White Shark attack for fear inducing.

Definitely, LoLoL! I once was in a club in Detroit, Leon Spinks, Tommy Hearns, some other known boxers were there hanging out. I was sizing myself up behind Spinks, noting to my friend how small he was to have been HW Champ .... Leon turned around, looking pretty pissed at all the shiet he was constantly getting from folks ... and having heard my lil convo. Needless to say he had blood in his eyes ... I almost swallowed my tongue, "hey man, how are you?" I asked.

He looked at me for about 15 seconds then smiled at me like (you know your azz is busted), and said "hey man", and walked away.

My friends were like, "dammit bro, you about to get us all knocked out", lolol!

Tyson would have been 10x's worse ... folks better run if he's drinking and mad.

King James would not have snuck out the back door like that.

LoLoL! At no point. But Young Jordan was a slim dude, he wanted no part of Tyson at that time. He probably quit talking to Robin altogether.

Mike Tyson, Forever my idol, He acted like that for a reason ... That guy deserves to be beaten

Funny how people call Floyd a piece of **** then turn around and praise Tyson.

It’s good to see you’re still your own personal cheerleader.

Sounds like you and Tyson were cut from the same cloth. Said no one ever (except you of course)

That's right! I can give myself accolades. It's called confidence. You should get some. It's simple, I know what I've done, been through, and accomplished. At the same time though, I can call myself nothing compared to many others.

Based on your reply, you would have preferred the latter.

I was just throwing my experiences out there, and how I relate to Tyson.

Your reply says that you are insecure.

It's ok man. Try lifting some weights. Join a boxing or MMA gym. Go through some FKING trenches and come out the other side, and maybe you wont be insecure anymore.

And then you woke up from this dream because your mother shouted your breakfast is ready, and then you sat and watch her drag her bad leg around the kitchen, serving your breakfast.

Well, it was actually part nightmare. Lol

Thank you for the compliment though. Much appreciated. : )

And you didnt die bro! I can see that the clown in you is alive and not so well.

Lol

Who at social gatherings did Mike Tyson not "nearly beat up"?

[Bda31175]

MJ, Brad Pitt, a gorilla in the Bronx zoo. I'm getting tired of reading about people who narrowly avoided getting planished by Mike several decades ago.

All these are what makes the Tyson story interesting... I bet Deontay Wilder in similar situation now, would have been looking for a photo opportunity with Jordan.
