Most people don't believe it but Mike Tyson nearly knocked me out. About 20 years ago I was in Las Vegas and I bumped into him in the lobby of Caesar's Palace.....literally! I was walking and not paying any attention to where I was going, largely because I was starring at some good looking woman. Apparently Tyson must have been starring at the same woman and we collided. I fell on my ass. Tyson is much larger than me and it felt like I had walked into a cement wall. That guy's chest is just as hard as it looks. Took me a few seconds to get my bearings, then I looked up at him and said: "What the **** did you hit me for?" As he was walking away, he laughed and said: "I didn't need to."Comment

Who lies on here. Of course we believe you. Sounds funny. I heard shaking his hand is like shaking a statues hand.Most people don't believe it but Mike Tyson nearly knocked me out.

Being a boxer has been great for me because of the opportunities it sometimes gives me to meet people... Muhammad Ali (shadowboxed with him), Archie Moore (he was a mentor of mine since I was 15), Willie Pep (we live near each other, gave him a ride to the airport once), ... Ken Norton, Foreman, McClellan (when we were amateurs), Bones Adams when he was 13, Cornelius Boza Edwards (he helped me work a corner once in Las Vegas back in 2002, Michael and Leon Spinks, Gene Fullmer, Carmen Basilio (he hit me in the balls once when were kind of slap boxing, true story), Aaron Pryor 9many times including once in 1989 when we were sharing a dressing room in Rochester), andmany others. NOTHING compares to meeting Aliand even people that aren't big fans of his will often tell you that... there is a certain (powerful) presense about him...crazy stuff..if you met him u likely know what I'm talking about....Comment
