In this edition of Larry King Live Mike Tyson discussed the infamous rematch with Evander Holyfield, his potential for reinstatement and answers questions directly from callers.
I love how Mike blames everything solely on himself and nobody else, humility is a rare character trait for a fighter of his caliber
BearXBunny sign of a man who fears God
what a man does
Demon no it’s not
Jeffrey Lebowski yes it is
Demon no it’s not. It’s a sign of character.
We are blessed this man is still alive. One of the brighter minds around
Yousuf Abusaly 🙏🏽
He’s actually got brighter with age
@Fit Boy Abdul
He's well educated tbh dude
Boffum
Mike tyson is not that bright tf compared to lewis and klitschko hes dumb af
March 2024
We don’t have interviews like these anymore. Respectful. Engaging. What an era this was. Two masters at their craft.
I think Larry King is the most respected interviewer ever. He doesn't even make Tyson angry.
i watched 1000 interviews with Tyson and its clear that King knows how to speak to him and get around the tricky stuff without triggering him
doug575 he pisses him off once per interview but the thing is while Mike gives him the death stare Larry moves past whatever he said to him and that makes Mike be like “This guy doesn’t fear me...” and he calms down
Old school guy with common sense
@@BagzAndPresident Lies. Larry didn't say anything offensive to Mike not once during this video that's why Mike didn't get upset
@@BagzAndPresident Cmon man, how can you call yourself "ASMR" and not have any asmr videos?
Everyone thought Tyson would be in jail or dead by now, and now he's doing better than Holyfield, Lewis, and everyone from his era! Tyson has overcome everything and is back on top! That's the Brooklyn spirit and mental toughness!
Alvalanker Highwind It ain't over til God says it's over not man.
Lol Lewis is in good health and a lot richer than tyson
Mike has more money than Holyfield but that's it. Lewis has more money and is also enjoying a great life and reaping his legacy. Tyson is what we think of when we hear boxing tho, him and Ali. They're all about even.
Lennox is still very very very rich...
Lewis is married to a Ms. Jamaica contestant and live in Florida, healthy, and net worth is close to $150 million compared to Tyson $3 million. I do agree that Tyson has come a long way and appears to be happy. Tyson made money but he took care of everyone and everyone had their hand out.
Everyone trashes Tyson for being wild. Yes he was, but he always maintained a level of self awareness, and self consciousness. Anyone who grew up poor, and shoots to getting 30 million dollars shoved down their mouth every other month, will of course have trouble going down the path of righteousness, every person is hard headed. No matter his struggle, Tyson was always blessed with the ability to eloquently express his feelings, and relate to himself in a way that no one else could. I've quite simply have never felt so sorry, but yet so proud of a fighter like Tyson.
Yea, Mike became World champ at only 20, unified all major belts at 22 and had all money in the world by 24! its not easy to keep yourself motivated when you've achieved all that in span of few years.
Lïght Yagami I second that emotion 👍
Self awareness and consciousness? Hahahah..
Whoever has a high self awareness/consciousness is a highly developed human being.
He might be now though
I think most people had the impression of Mike Tyson being this low intelligence bully who is only good at boxing because everyone (including me) only saw him boxing, his biting and his jail convictions ... but lo and behold, now watching all these old interviews he actually come across as a VERY intelligent, philosophical thoughtful person ... in fact he's so respectful and well mannered towards Larry King, he's like a real gentleman ... and then I also got to learn that he loves taking care of pigeons, who would have thought a man who look so blood thirsty and animalistic in the boxing ring would be have such a gentle heart towards such a soft and fragile animal ... wow
GUN well said
Mike Tyson is such a complex man. Sensitive, good hearted, genuine man but incredibly paranoid and misguided with a upbringing in a poor society... And he just so happens to be the one of the most dangerous people in the world. Crazy life, inspiring :)
Amazing video man!
Thomas Hedley yes lets hope prison taught him a lesson .
Thomas Hedley not a poor society but a misguided one . Humans only get taught by what's around them
So hilarious all these years later how silly the stereotypes were... this man is so intelligent and wise beyond his years even here at 31...
He is an angel in beast body able to kill with bare hands.
@love & peace Hillary's not dangerous lol. For sure you are a partisan right-winger saying dumb shit like that.
I could listen to Mike Tyson for hours straight!
He is a good man for real
I could too! Love Mike!
ya ok - do you not know hes a convivted rapist, woman beater and a life long junkie. He is the farthest fucking thing from a good man lmgdao. Get a clue.
a good man for real bahahaha lololololol lmgdao again and again
swear
@@JanderSunstar dirty rapist
The intelligence & articulation of Mike Tyson is not widely known.
Much respect to this man who went through A LOT...
He seems to have so much clarity of mind here well spoken eloquent humble. Top guy even now
What ever made people think this guy wasn't intelligent he's a brilliant man
Yes. I agree.
Tyson is such a paradoxical individual.
The voice and when he gets mad
@@sanjaminic1978 that he is. Idk he answers stuff like I do. Just that I'm not him
The lisp
Im happy mike tyson made it this far in life considering where he came from!
Facts 🙏 god bless mike man. Hes an inspiration for me and so many people in this world
People should realize how brilliant Mike is. Humble and prideful. To this day he owns who is, where he came from, and his mistakes. Nothing but love for Mike!
Mike Tyson is underrated as a human being. Such a clever and insightful guy. Was driven mad by the sycophants who got their claws into him like King and those destructive people.
"Do you think your image will change?"
2021: everyone loves Mike 💯
"don king will never steal from me " - he really got him didnt he
Sad realy,tyson has the innocence of child in some ways 25% of the time and the fire of a warrior the other 50% the other 25% is like philosopher. Interesting man in all honesty.also Don King is a pile of shit 😉
putting Mike in prison for something he did not do was a shameless mistake, but at the same time his mind opened so much due to the hardship
How do you know he didn't do it, were you there? A jury of his peers found him guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. If you have evidence to the contrary that will exonerate Tyson, tell me where I can look at it.
@@Screencappedhats is a jury, does not matter if is of his peers or my peers (this words-peers- have not importance here, they sound more important than they are) like i said he did not do it, I can't exonerate him either. To go into a very long debate with someone over here is not doable. We just express our opinions based on the information we have just like the jury did. But the jury did not have access to all information at the time. If you loose or win is not always fair, it is as good as your lawyer is, what he is able to push. It is not perfect justice it is whatever comes out. There are people sitting on the death row who are not guilty, many were exonerated based on new technology, until them they were guilty in the eyes of the jury (of their peers) This is already a long explanation but still very short for the purpose of convincing someone.
@@Screencappedhatsnobody gets charged guilty for rape and only does 3 and a half years in prison come on now that man was innocent.
larry came to prison to interview him, there both from brooklyn, they have a mutual respect for eachother and they were actually friends behind the scenes.
oscar dagrouch exactly. After watching that interview my respect for Larry went up. He didn’t provoke him, he responded to Tyson’s comments, treated him with respect...it was a great interview. I feel like Tyson doesn’t like most reporters (for good reason because most bring up the past to try to belittle him) but he and Larry have great report.
@Diarmid O'Connor yes how could he possibly have done that
@@lizzylu4660 "rapport"
He's a good communicator, intelligent too.
Mike comes across extremely well and is quite articulate in this interview 👏
Pete Taylor wtf? Shut up
Hes a good example how someone can turn his life around. From low, to stardom, falling all the way down, but picked hinself back up, and all that pain and experience made him a better person over time.
He was Boxing with life it's self ...Get knocked down just get back up again continue to fight. He's a true warrior.
Rest in peace Larry King. I love him
Thanks so much dude they were no clips left of him on TH-cam that I haven't watched he's really a interesting guy to watch
Adam El sayed lol same here..i have run out of Mike videos
Turn off your station
Junk Finger hahaha
Same here bro Like watched his whole life
Hotboxin podcast is for you I’m sure
Best tyson interview I've seen in a long time
“You can tell your success by your adversaries. They are not after no loser”. Insightful.
It applies to DJT.
That quote applies to D.T.
Mike is such an intelligent person. I love him.
Mike Tyson look so handsome with facial hair and hair on his head 😉
Such a womenly comment
Rose's Flowers kinda the same thing. Craig Ferguson
I look forward to your letters
Kinda looks like 50 cent
roses flowers yesssssssssss💕
@@ramycraft5349 they both from new York 50 and Tyson
I love mike with all my soul. Long live this man
For me, Mike will always be the GOAT💯💯
Rest in peace Larry king love this interview love mike Tyson.💯💯💯💯.
Rest In Peace to the REAL King, Larry King. 🙏🙏🙏😭😭😭😞😞😞😞🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊
He's a genuine human being, a gentle giant. We love you here in New Zealand. God bless you and your family, Mike Tyson.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of the better interviews with Mike.
freakin love him, great interview
5:04 Larry kings shoulders look like coat hangers
marty mcfly LMAO LOOKS LIKE HIS HEAD IS EDITED ON
Lmaoooooooo
@@BagzAndPresident brilliant lol
JOE 😂
His traps(if he even has traps) are upside down
I love the link between these two have. Just two boys from the tough old streets of Brownsville Brooklyn 🌃 2 champions in their own way 🏆
Love iron mike but can we hear it for one, if not the, greatest interviewers of All time... Larry King
Tyson is really intelligent love to hear him speak
Mike is very smart and don't get enough credit for that!
This interview shows this man to be very smart and level headed, great man.
The most honest man in this world. He owns up to his flaws. I deeply respect him for that
Look at Larry Kong's shoulder's. lol
😂
Arm wrestling match between him and Tyson !
/\😀/\
Tyson has a good soul man.
Only Larry could interview Mike at that time because Larry had respect for Mike & Mike had respect for Larry...
Last time CNN was watchable was when Larry was still on. They forced this man into an early retirement, and 10 years later they STILL cannot replace him and their ratings STILL have not recovered. Bring back Larry King!
tyson was born an adult, Larry was born old 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thatth tho true
So candid, he's an eccentric and can become inflamed and unhinged at times but he's undoubtably a well intentioned guy and the way he's turned himself around in recent years shows a real effort to change his place in the world. That takes courage and determination and that deserves respect.
There is chemistry between these two, it's clear that they are friends
Apparently Tyson is so much more intelligent than most people thought before. This is 2020 now and now he’s back in boxing
Mike Tyson is amazing he is so genuine, I could spend hours listening to him drops jewels..
thanks for this upload this is rare, been looking for this for awhile
Matt Locke I love your Mike tyson video man
Tyson looks has respect for Larry King
I think King had a good rapport with him. They did several interviews over the years and every time Mike was just like this, always respectful and candid. Some of my favorite interviews of his.
i think everyone who goes to larry king has alot of respect for him
there both from Brownsville Brooklyn so have something in common
I think he kinda reminds him cus as far as age and maturity
@@humanforfreedom9583 bed stuy
Mike is a sweetheart! And at his best no one could touch him!! Not even the great joe Luis
I love Mike Tyson.
Mike loves Larry...Great connection/energy
king mike so down too earth an humble but also a animal in the ring
True Legend ❤✌
Yes sir
How the hell can anyone not like Mike Tyson? It's impossible! If they just listen to him speak from his heart for 5 minutes its a wrap.
Wow.....th-cam.com/video/g-hNmkSdliU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=y-hzN84wjXk8CkBM
The first caller was a real fan.
100% 👍
mike tyson,great boxer and larry king,great interviewer.
obviously ive known who larry king is forever but this is the first interview ive ever watched with him, hes the best
His image did change because he he loved by so many people. Probably the most loved boxer in history
Larry King Live the first podcaster.
Get well soon Mr Tyson I keep you in my prayers may Allah bless you and keep you safe always ❤ from Zara
the best fighter ever, a champion for the ages Mike tyson
100%, There will never be another Mike Tyson again!
Tyson is a gray role model for those young men pulling themselves out of bad situations.
Don’t give up on yourself ever!
Be careful with the decisions you make when your younger and give yourself an opportunity to mature and grow into your own man👍
Great job Mr.Tyson 👏
I love listening and learning from your insights snd wisdom!
You an intelligent man and have allot to offer to society!!!
Cus is proud of you and waiting on you to join him behind the big gates 👍
Mike helped me through tough times, made me respect life and others, confirmed my hate towards egos throughout my like
life*
Tyson and morrison fight would have been great to see.
Mike would've shattered Morrison's chandelier jaw into a million pieces within a round.
@Ryan Guidry tyson and mercer are my two fav fighters of all time
Maybe 5 minutes after the Douglas fight.
Honestly, in my opinion, I don't think Morrison had that bad of chin. It was his conditioning that would get him knocked out at times. His conditioning wasn't the best but people have to realize he was a power puncher also and power punchers always have a chance. If Tyson and Morrison ever fought I'd say Tyson would beat him of points.
Mike would do what Ray Mercer tried to do.
I was 10 days old when this was recorded
I wasnt exist 😅
This was so inspiring to watch: Two masters at their craft who actually were personal friends in real life; let's see whenever that comes about again.
Mike your Mike you're a legend and I'm going to write amazing songs about you , I promise starting tomorrow
Thanks for posting. I haven’t seen this clip.
I love you , Mike Tyson.....u r the best
Amazing man mike Tyson
Mike somehow gives knockout interviews as well
great interview!! the two greats
Mike made that interview possible not Larry King because Larry King took some cheap shots at him
Mike and Larry have known eachother for a very long time. It would be nice to see another interview with them
There is.
best man of all time
Iron Mike he's a legend. I love his honesty and he should be proud of himself always.
Man ! Mike really loved the word "Ironic".
So much irony in life. Mike saw more then most.
97 was the last year Mike was in the peak of his physical shape. If he fought Lewis even at the end of the 90s would have regain the title for the third time
Ammar Z lol
A post prison tyson would have been killed by lewis
Ammar Z He was supposed to fight Lewis in 96 as he was the mandatory but dropped his WBC belt and went after Seldon and paid Lewis $4 million compensation, Lewis would have beaten him. Tyson always had problems against big guys who would keep him at distance using the jab and by the time Lewis was trained by Manny Steward he only lost when he got lazy in the ring but went onto win in both rematches. Tyson was good to watch but there was better fighters than him and Holyfield had his number due to styles, Tysons style was Taylor made for Holyfield a boxer who hardly took a step back so that is 2 guys that were better boxers than MT
@@stuart73m just no
@@stuart73m delusional lol. Lennox was knocked out by McCall who was Tyson sparring partner and Lennox wasn't a big name or bought anything to the table and didn't even have a title. Much bigger fights were out there. King offered Lennox $13 million to fight mike. Lennox turned it down which would have been his highest payed fight to date. Instead he took king to court and got 4 million court fees. Not side step money. The rest of that money went to Holyfield who wanted to fight Tyson in The ring and not in the courts.
Tyson is a good person self made and tough
Mike's got a good heart
Mike Tyson one of 2 or 3 hero's, besides my dad.... with all his and all our faults, he is an amazing man.... what a life, and it's not just strength, he is so intelligent, so deeply thoughtful.... and also, he's like a dominant buffalo bull that had to fight his way through everything, but he's humble and thougtful. He tells the truth. and there is nobody that even come close the excitement I see and feel when I watch him fight.
The man. Legend. executioner.
Tyson is outstanding in the ring whoever wins the match.Amazing boxing style ever saw. He is the greatest legend of all. From 🇱🇰 Sri Lanka
Larry: "And Where do you live?"
Mike: "I don't know"
Hahaha
I think Mike had a very good relationship with Larry King.
Did many interviews with him.
"Does it bother you at your age to be told to stay out of trouble" Ouch...
It might hurt if you weren't the barbarian king. Mike Tyson didn't care about something so petty and small.
Mike Tyson is the Greatest man of our era 👊🫡👊
"I think people are good by nature, but I think public institutions corrupt them"
Much knowledge respect to both men. The people who disliked this video must be negative people
i cant stop looking at his eyebrows
Lol
Mike is the best of all time
Tyson in 97'="don king good guy" Tyson 2018-"don king is a scumbag"
Innocence... 😔
He fucked Tyson outta millions
Mike Tyson is a very honest man and intelligent Dude. ✌️
Mike speaks very articulately, allways has. Such a great fighters, a legend.. It will be a sad day when he leaves this earth. I identify with Mike so much on a personal level. The way he has been manipulated and railroaded by humans. The man could break your face if he wanted too. But he isn't like that, he is respectfull and good to you if you are good to him. He's just like all of us, trying to find his way in life.. He's made a few wrong choices, but who hasn't? People like Dessere Washington and Don King tried to destroy him for $. But he has allways bounced back... Your mate Daz from Australia.
Tyson doesn't have the same thoughts about Don King nowadays!
Don King is lucky to be alive for what he did to Mike.
Some Balkan guy would cut him from ass to mouth for that money.
@@balkanboy1203 mike beat up don king many times. At one point don was afraid to be around Mike because he kept beating don up.
