Mike Tyson is a classic example of the quote “We have two lives, and the second begins when we realize we only have one”
You're on a good drug we only have one life and there is no second. How about that
@@joelavalos319 yall both right LMAO
but it starts very slowly, picks up momentum, and then you realize what you have achieved long after you were in the moment
Nice
How can this man fight Jake.
“No one will ever know the violence it took to become this gentle” M. Tyson
@@vinnothelizard idiot ... look into it ... or you a racist prick ... conviction dont mean you done it ...
@@vinnothelizard research it prick no evidence , 3 people came to testify to say they were with tyson at the time desiree washington was saying , guess what judge didnt take into consideration.
But u?
@@lucaswhitepridemaclean9447 but me what? Have you seen quotes there?
Chillax, weeeed.
This is a prime example to NEVER give up because it’s never too late to change.
ok whitey privledge would know
Amen
Grace of Allah? Allah isnt real. The only way to success and eternity is through Jesus Christ and the fact that Mike doesnt see that yet spells doom for him.
@@skinnie2838 I agree only Jesus is the way...I hope Mike finds salvation with Christ because the Koran isn't the way. I was referring to Mike's progress from where he was b4
Mikes character hasn't changed but yours has if you like this devils advocate
He only knows how to be himself. Always keeping it real. Mike Tyson.
Mike Tyson is one of kind doesn’t take sh*t from no one..
Wow...that was tearful and deep... To know a man is to not see him
@@e2dwf976 iii
He's my hero... Yet I've just found him if that makes sense. Never had a chance to hear him really.
Mike is far deeper than people give him credit for. Brutally honest and yet humble.
Amen
There is Ali and Mike. Spreading the word. Bless u
Pigeons.
Grace of Allah? Allah isnt real. The only way to success and eternity is through Jesus Christ and the fact that Mike doesnt see that yet spells doom for him.
Always true to himself but was a product of his environment which made him make bad decisions. Amazing man.
As an Italian, I feel proud a good ITalian old man took care of this lost soul and saved his life. RIP Costantino D'Amato.
John Elmot yep
Cus D'Amato was Greek I believe
nO
Spot on
He died before Tyson even became big lol...
Wonderful and down-to-earth. Brought tears to my eyes.
Same here
Mikes a Legend… very humble guy and glad to see him finally just at peace. If you’re reading this may you be at peace as well.
No matter what color God made us Peace and love is what we all need🙏
Is this comment in heaven? :O
You too JUMP MELO thanks for the vibe and energy you bring.
Especially legendary was him raping a girl and going to jail for it despite being rich and having the best lawyers in the world
Thanks.
"By being sober, I'm able to SHOW UP for my children" , I love that, who else does?!
Hoping he sticks
Nah, I hate my fucking children that why Im not sober. I feel guilty when I hit them if i dont drink.
ME!
Anyone that drinks is trash
History and Reviews I drink casually and I'm not trash my friend
I’m a school teacher and I try and show my students who Mike Tyson really is so that they too can become a beautiful human being in spite of whatever terrible background they are born into
Great example of real life.
You should listen to his audio book on audible
👍👍👌
A beautifully convicted rapist? Nice to see "teachers" promoting such role models...
Steven Finston , you should also Show the Real Face of your Country how america controls the world how stealing oil , killing children with F-15 s destroying their faces. Can you tell the realities ?
God Bless Mike Tyson. He's seen it all. But look at his life arc...he's constantly learning and maturing - becoming a man in full. I wish him nothing but the best.
Hear here! -The loss of his Mother, and then Cus left him adolescent, and that must be a bad place to be when the peak of wealth and fame hit. - He's grown into a man I want to be.
Cus the italian didn't lie to Mike when he said he was beautiful. To be what he is today from what he come from, is truly amazing. I really enjoy hearing him talk. Very very intelligent
Mike is the Realest!!
Iron Mike never sold out!
Mike Tyson in the ring was great! But this Mike Tyson is the people's champ!
You’re wrong he did but he took it back that’s why he’s even more inspiring to me
True that but Micky Rourke is also a realist.
so true, so hard to find figures with a voice who haven't sold out!
@@gstuartdong Butler dugles. Coch. Croud. Team. Fight
this guy speaks from his heart ! no sugar coating he tells it like it is 👍👍👍👍
its a great quality to have.
Mike Tyson is one of my hero's. I'm a recovering drug addict and alcoholic ex-convict Muslim revert born in the 80's. Mike gives me hope that I can be accepted by people as a good human being with all my imperfections. Thank you Mike. AsalamuAlaikum brother.
Wassalam.
Spoonburner
Walaikumassalam brother..so proud of you!
Mike is as brutal with honesty and humbleness now as he ever was in the ring. You don't hear this from many. So incredibly refreshing.
He’s just so brutally honest, he’s hard not to love.
There's no denying he poured his heart out on this presentation, I love Iron Mike the boxer/slugger, and now I love and truly respect Michael Tyson the human being.
For sure
I wish I could have written that. You stole the words out of my mouth(Thanks for that)
the monsters back now though
Don't forget his best version : the convicted rapist
@UCL2WuWHVvlTFoTeV_KqDRQQ of course they would be at least one ignorant fuk on here !! U don't know sh!t!!
“That darkness inside of me.” What a courageous and honest self-assessment. One of the most frightening and formidable boxers of all time is able to see he still had to overcome his dark side. What an incredible testimony. We all need to learn from his humility.
trying hard Understanding God alpa bitch ego tripping
After listening to the to his incredible recounting I now realize that his awesome persistence, glorious winnings, even the losses when he grew older, were all a massive victory by a real man of great truth and courage. I've been at times asked who I thought in the world measured up to being the perfect gentleman. Before he took his fate and victory in hand, in those terrific years of discipline, courage and victory, I now look back and see that it is the immense victory of the man who, like Mike, fought and discovered the power within himself to fight and reach heights that most of us only dream about .That too, incapacitated by fears.Mike overcame it all. We know and saw that what he did in the ring was a climbing of those steps into victory. I will bet that he is on his way to greater victories. In faith I will say to Mr.Tyson : I can see and hope I will be around to see you winning those greater victories. Your fights in the ring proved that , as Les Brown says, a man who will not listen to a world that says it's impossible.Good luck and God bless you and your family Mike.Yoiu'd be amazed at how deeply most of the world admires you. Cheers. By the way, your speech could only have come from someone with intense power. Adios and zgoc blesd.
Lets all forgive racists and rapists ... THEY are the real victims lol
@@jannorris4140 - There is no one expressing that sentiment at least not from me. The idea though that someone is irredeemable gives no one any chance. Tyson may have done horrible things and been a horrible person, yet he has made some acknowledgment of his mistakes. If that counts for nothing then what is preferable? We should just assume he is invalid forever as a person? I don’t know how one could forgive a rape, but at what point has he made himself unworthy of any redemption? The only way forward is to see we all have acted unconsciously. While I would never ever condone violence to women it’s a stunningly real occurrence. What is not common is acknowledging one’s unconscious evil actions as unacceptable. Him acknowledging may not erase the past, but it begins a step forward to remake the future. Men like Tyson who had been trained to be driven to be as violent and intimidating as he was seldom make any acknowledgements of being wrong. It matters to own your past. It matters because many still respect his formidability, which many people experienced in the ring.
@@owenwilberforce6138 Many people are irredeemable and dont deserve any more chances. Thats why we have death row. Right?? . Im not saying Tyson is one of those though.
There are other choices in life, Tyson is one of the best advocates for the lost youth. You cannot deny Tyson's life lessons and stories.
People just have to no idea how intelligent this brother was. I would love to meet him someday.
Yeah man seriously..
👍 totaly agree, this man is loved in scotland from his scottish black brothers.
+Persian Life Ok? Typo? It's not that serious.
Intelligent indeed my. Intelligent indeed.
Totally agree with you my friend...Mike is definitely an intelligent guy, but for me, Mike has something more valuable and more beneficial than intelligence... Mike Tyson has wisdom. Mike Tyson is a wise man, a very wise man... Mike has great self-awareness, and he's willing to be completely honest about his past, and about his experiences, and about his life, and ultimately he's completely honest about himself, including all of his flaws and all of his failings... The wise man has complete and utter knowledge of himself, and ALL of his past, both good and bad, and has acceptance of himself.... The intelligent man, the smart man, and the Grade A student, they will have lots of knowledge about other people whether past or present, and they'll have lots of knowledge of historical or current world-events...but will they have complete and utter knowledge of themselves...
Mike Tyson is one of my heroes. I love stories of broken men who find redemption and self awareness thru self improvement and sheer willpower regardless of the hand they were dealt in life.. i find anyone who can talk honestly and freely about thier life's demons and be frank about thier choices right or wrong to be empowering. I encourage anyone to read his autobiography and you will get a good glimpse inside of this man's psyche and perspective.. he is deceptively intelligent and surprisingly well read and has great insight as he gets older into what it takes to be a man and how to own ones tragedies and triumphs gracefully I hope to one day meet him and give my appreciation
I agree with everything you said.
Amen
die you also read about Jake the Snake Roberts?
Everything you said 100%. It would be so amazing to meet him in person!
Arrahdre highly intelligent,charasmatic,honest..and above all humble....mike is king of the ring..
Can’t get any better than Mike . Most realest straight forward person i know .
Ronald Allen
Me too ✋ I absolutely agree with you 💯%. 🌹🏆❤🙋🏻♀️
You a legend Mike. Great speech from the heart ❤️ Very inspirational.
this is a better speech than any politician or preacher could do
Really .
This is the best thing i read today. I do agree with you, he is very honest and has changed a lot to be a much better man... Good on you both.
Cause it was pure from the heart and soul.
The difference between truth and lies.
K God yes indeed!!
He is an example of how to start over and win the small battles
Furious Styles yes, well said
Tears for those who've had tragic childhoods .
Who else is more qualified to speak other than Tyson, on life’s transformation? This guy speaks from his heart! Bravo 👏👏👏
18:45 “This could be a beautiful country if we stop being elites and treat each other like brothers and sisters and stop acting like we’re better than everyone”
Damn.. Right there.. WORD 👌👌👌👌
Doctor Mashigo ya heaaaard brotha
Then he says something about "The people running this Country". YO! Protect him. With more time he will spill more and more information. We do not want him to die like Tupac (not comparing him to Tupac)
Whis he one day will run for Presidency
@Jerome Jozwiak What a moron you are, would not surprise me that after posting that idiocity you went right to vote Trump
I'm so impressed at this man . This brought me to tears..... My Gosh maybe there is still hope for this world ! Thank You Mr. Tyson
CHAMP !!!!
"...When I went to the institution..",that's jail right?.
@@alphabogeyman7462 yeah
I could not agree more.... I just could not....
Hello ann
Why come watch an inspirational Mike Tyson video and make an ignorant comment like
“There is still hope for this world”
I don't think they expected to hear him get that real about reentry. I love his honesty.
For real bro. Mike is such a Awesome human being. He has a huge heart. Which is crazy when you hear him speak of his past. He is a true inspiration to those that had a very tough up bringing. You can do anything if you work for it. Mike proves that.
What a humble, honest and very transparent person. Mike is down to earth and telling it like it is! Love you Mike!!!
I ve refused to watch any of his fight videos where he lost. That's because to me he never lost. I love this man with my soul. Love from east side Nigeria.
Even me..... I refuse to watch all his loses.. and don't think I would ever watch except I sit with Tyson, and we both watch it together only if also wishes!
That’s called bring delusional.
Much respect. Tyson remains the best there ever was. His losses were mainly due to indescresions, and its painful to watch them. I have never watched his loss video more than once
Me too .
@@dssfffdddss333 same here but not because I refuse to believe he lost. for me at it's just too painful and sad to see him lose. last 2 fights I ordered on ppv, vs danny williams I remember screaming at the top of my lungs cause it looked like a classic 1st rd tyson ko was about to happen. but danny survived and as the fight went on it wasn't looking good for mike. even without the twisted ankle i don't know if he had enough gas in the tank to keep going. and why pick enormous opponents? younger tyson would have had a field day- huge, slowish guys were just big heavy bags, perfect for target practice. but stamina and even punching power was obviously nowhere near what it used to be. wish freddie had trained more of tyson's fights- he came out looking really sharp and not 1 punch ko head hunting.
mcbride was a disaster but really solidified that there's no way he should ever fight again. was kind of funny in the post fight interview he said something like he should never have lost to a fighter with mcbride's skill level which is proof of why he should retire. would've been nice to see him go out with a W but it is what it is.
I still never watched holyfield 1 and lewis fully from start to finish. at least he had his moments from each loss and arguably ko'd douglas in a modern version of dempsey's long count vs tunney. to me louis and dempsey are #2 and #3. iron mike is and always will be #1
Tyson needs a really good Netflix movie on his life. It would be epic.
he did a documentary and he felt intruded
@@adamsandler1211 ...Documentaries are good. But its nothing like a good solid movie. Every celebrity thinks its intruding, until you cut them the check. Then they start opening up, lol.
They’re making one with Jamie foxx as Mike, he tales about it on his podcast
it's already been a Mike Tyson movie but only up until the Busta Douglas fight..but there's a lot more to the Champ to mention now.
@@texasscratchking4568..Its far more now. They need a real one with a real serious budget behind it
I met Mike Tyson once and he was a complete gentleman. I think he is a great man and God chose him to talk about his path no matter how rough it was. He is helping so many.
I believe that too
A tortured soul who turned his life around, a real inspiration!
unique mix of humility and intelligence.
Helpsome
Bpo
He still rich and unique not humiliated..but guess what you might be poor and good in criticizing others.
@@JeanMarieRPayne Are you confusing 'humility' with 'humiliated'? The 2 words have nothing in common.
Mike Tyson will always be a boxing legend. 1 of the best ever.
Mike is doing his best work outside of boxing right now.
He is the best ever
THE best ever
he's alexander
Mike Tyson has finally found his peace. It is such a beautiful thing to see.
This man makes me cry. I’m amazed at what human beings are able to achieve, the insights and growth. The Evolution of Consciousness. I salute you, Mike. The Earth is a better place because you’re here with us. Aloha all.
Mike Tyson I hope you read these comments mate because the world loves you dude your an honest voice in a world full of bullshiters. Mike is a dude man 100% legend in and out the ring, have a great life now mike you've earned it mate ✌️
Keep up the good work, and focus on God alone.🗽
Well said and yess we love mike ❤

My God he's genuinely decent man
SuperLaney81 of course he is! He always has been. The media skewed the image of Mike Tyson..... Mike will always be champ in my book.
Hearing him speak gives me hope, Mike is a smart and from the heart, man.

@@morgoth1946 yeah, if you stop using my stolen identity you still can.
I could listen to Mike talk all day. He's inspiring...
Yeah. Mỏre genuine than Pat Reily
I've been watching Mike since he was 18. His honesty is infectious. I would love to meet him. He acknowledges his faults and weaknesses but that is his greatest strength.
Mike is REAL. The champ was the best puncher of all times. But the champ is an amazing human.
Mike Tyson is one of the select FEW people that I enjoy listening to when he testifies. Everything he says is just clear and down to earth, so unassuming. We need that in this world of instant gratification.
His humility and honesty
Is overwhelming. Wishing
Mr Tyson and his family
Peace.
mike was always depicted by media as an uneducated thug. but til you get to see him outside media exploitation you see a boxing historian and scholar and from his lifes struggle he has become a sage.
ELIHU EL couldn't have said it any better myself.
ELIHU EL Mike created his own monster.
ELIHU EL I agree
I think white society should take the issue of how their media behaves more seriously because it's actually poisonous. Especially in regards to black men.
ELIHU EL I never saw him like that
Mike has an amazing testimony. God has a purpose for him because he was never supposed to make it
New American he obviously was supposed to make it that’s why he made it..
@@rasheedporche5361 that's deep man🖖
"I didnt know anything about being a tough guy, but I thought I was" Well said that's called humility. Alot of violence is rooted in that self image.
Mike may not be boxing anymore yet he's words still pack a punch . Very happy to see he is doing so much for young people and the community. Right on champ .
Damn that pun was bad
Mike you are my hero.. Through all adversity, you chose happiness. That is the biggest knockout punch you can give life.. G.O.A.T
That's Deep. I love it. I feel the same way too.
Its like Stallone says in the Balboa movie - nobody knocks you down as hard as life does - but Mike has picked himself up and moved forward.
You're a beautiful human being, Mike.
Man, Mike's ups and downs have been so public. I feel like it's so rare to see such a powerful transformation be so public. In a sense we've all been along for the journey. Mike, you're an inspiration. People can change.
Mike is so natural. He is super clean now and has been through many cleanses mentally, physically, and spiritually.
I respect his life. It's a fucking movie.
Confidence breeds success; success breeds confidence.
Keep it up, Mike.
Realest
Dude just drops mad jewels of wisdom on his podcast. Nothing but love for Iron Mike.
@@mikefelix6338 His will is stronger than his fear.
that was the real Mike, the man with real character, a true champion outside the ring
He truly has grown into a special person.
@@vinnothelizard Yea right, chick comes up to his room in the middle of the night. Were you there? No? Then, STFU!
he always was a special person :)
I am enjoying Mike Tyson's conversation....love his energy!
Man this was very very enlightening. Mike Tyson is a legend!
"I am happy I am able to give my children what I didn't have"
Amazing!!
Respect is something Mike never has to worry about....We ALL respect you.
I never realized how charismatic and likable Mike Tyson is....Hell of a transformation. Happy Mike had a spiritual awakening. He is happy on the inside...
Mike Tyson is a most fascinating and real person. Full respect for the man. I could listen to him for hours.

Ditto on your comment 👍.
"I'm really grateful for my life now."
Much love.
Amen me too! Neve gives up.
damn mike's come a long way
HE REALLY HAS!!! He deserves all the credit in the world, if you can turn into what he is after where he came from then NOBODY has any excuses!!!
Light Up The Darkness light up the darkness, man.
"After the Dark there is always a brighter Day" Mr Tyson the light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter. Your spirit epitomizes the eloquence and grace of a man coming out of the dark. All power to you my friend.
I love you Mike, you still the best ever

12 years old, and was out burglarizing and robbing folks. My god.
He's full of shit. In his autobiography these stories have different endings. The kid didn't get shot but ktfo.
Mike is the most genuine and honest person I can think of. His obvious intelligence has thankfully been given it's due through an enlightened soul. I love this guy.
Who would of thought he would of became the man he is today..
He is a lot smarter that we give him credit for. Thank you Mike for your words, very inspirational. I feel motivated. He is a wonderful speaker, he keeps it real, does not kiss no ones butt. Gives hope to the poor and underprivileged. Have a new level of respect for this man, God Bless him and all.
Mike you are such an inspiration.
One of the most inspiring stories of all time
One of the most admired men in my mimd. I grew up in the same Bronx he did , had some of the same Gus D'Amato's in my life. There but the grace of god.....go Mike.. your amazing out of the ring!
Love love love for the authentic MikeTyson

I am a married white mother of 2, and I have plenty of my own demons; some I can talk about and some that I hope never see the light of day. It is so inspiring to see such straight forward honesty and hear about this level of personal triumph. Mistakes will happen, but that doesn't take away how far he has come, and I love that!
Mike is a real champion. He conquered the ring and now continues to assess real world challenges and faces them head on, showing the way to succeed and overcome, with humility and honor.
I could sit here and watch all his fights/interviews and never get tired of it.. still one of the humblest person fighter next to GOAT ALI
Real talk and the definition of humbleness right here!
Mike Tyson from a prize fighter to a inspirational speaker, who has learned from failure, and productivity has become apparent! A rare honesty.!
Here is a man that truely speaks from experience and almost literally seen and done it all. Great respect for Iron Mike, the greatest and most evolved boxer that ever lived 💪🏾
Mike Tyson deep down has a good heart . He tells the truth, which is rare nowadays amongst famous ppl.
wow, I'm really happy for mike. He's been through the fire and came out to be real gold
Pure gold.
Salute you Mike from Russia,God bless you.
Bless
Instant gratification vs. long term gratification.
Street life vs. alternative.
Thanks for sharing. Peace to you Mr. Tyson.
mad respect for mike..i always liked this man.a product of his environment..hes been around the block and came out on top.. hes got great attitude and very smart dude.all around great man doin the best he can,giving back..A true inspiration,A true champion

They need to hear the truth.
Me too lol.
V4AR these ppl need to hear it more
Right! The title says PRISON RE ENTRY and who re enters prison but someone who's been in prison? But as I listen to audience there is a lot carefree LAUGHTER😔
I love it that, despite the governor’s best efforts several times to get him to make a statement in favor of religion, Mike just tells his truth as he really sees it; that, all we generally know about religion is what our parents and other people tell us about it.
I think Mike’s final statement on the subject (about hoping that things such as the parting of the Red Sea is true) was just a polite kindness extended to the governor permitting him to save face after trying so hard to pressure Mike into a statement of faith.
Mike has a lot of integrity. He doesn’t feel the need to pander for the approval of people with better formal educations than he has; and, I admire that. The champ tells it straight from the heart, even if it’s not the popular thing to do.
The honesty of this man who has been there and done that is simply from the heart, and it shows. Hats off to you Mike Tyson. I think u might have become the man you wanted to be..x
