Since then Tyson has gone bankrupt in 2003, losing his $400 million fortune, been involved in several drug-related run-ins with the law, and got in trouble for comments he made in the media about Sarah Palin. Despite all this, Tyson has managed to build back his brand and is now worth around an estimated $10 million, mainly thanks to his cannabis company Tyson 2.0. He’s also helped soften the media and public’s perception of him by exposing his flaws see in bing.com interviews, appearing in movies, such as The Hangover, and revealing more about himself on his podcast, Hot Boxin’. “My sights are set on becoming a world champion, and now I have a chance to prove myself against the greatest heavyweight champion ever, the baddest man on the planet and the most dangerous boxer of all time,” Paul said in a statement. Michael Gerard Tyson was born in Brooklyn, New York on June 30, 1966 to Loma Tyson and Jimmy Kirk-patrick. Kirkpatrick left the family when his son was two years old. As a youth Tyson joined a street gang at a very early age and was in trouble with the law many times before he was 12 years old. After an arrest for armed robbery he was sent to the Tyron School in 1978, a correction center for juveniles in upstate New York. It was there that his life changed direction. The school’s physical education teacher saw potential in the young man and introduced him to legendary boxing trainer Cus D’Amato, who lived near the facility at the time. Tyson thrived under the new structure and discipline in his life. Tyson moved in with D’Amato and when the boxer’s mother died when he was 16. D’Amato became his legal guardian. Tyson was sent back to the Tyron school for a time after he was threatened with a gun by his then-trainer Teddy Atlas. The trainer had heard that Tyson sexually abused a 12-year-old girl and was trying to frighten him. Tyson made stunning progress as an amateur and decided to try out for the Olympic team at the age of 17. After failing to make the 1984 Olympic team, D’Amato decided that it was time for his fighter to turn professional. Tennis star Arthur Ashe, who won three Grand Slams and fought against racism and AIDS throughout his career, also marks the skin of the great boxer, with the text ‘Days of Grace’, as does the image of a dragon. All too often we find ourselves setting lofty goals to try and accomplish and in the end, we fall short and never meet them. For most people, Mike recommends just making it through the day. Setting expectations, but taking it one day at a time and making sure to utilize each day to its fullest will have you consistently reaching your goals. Tyson did have plenty of talent and raw punching power, but the legendary trainer fine-tuned his craft. D’Amato taught his new protegee the peek-a-boo style; that turned Iron Mike into a capable defensive fighter who was able to withstand his opponent’s advances before sending them to the canvass. The decision to get the face tattoo would be emblematic of this ultimately troubled period of Tyson’s life, and reflect on his future choices. In the years since Tyson retired, he’s more or less rehabilitated his public image as a troubled brute by being open in interviews, with self-deprecating humor, and getting involved in some cheesy B-movies, such as 2017’s legendarily cringetastic China Salesmen (prepare to facepalm your way through the fight with Stephen Seagal, viewable on YouTube). Tyson has started his own weed empire, Tyson Holistic, which, according to the Sun, earns more than $675,000 a month. Tyson himself reportedly cuts into his profit margins quite a bit by consuming (with his friends) $40,000’s worth every month at his Tyson Ranch in Mojave Desert, as Marketwatch says. He’s also talked about building a cannabis-themed resort. “Our team has worked diligently with all parties involved to reschedule this monumental fight to a date that ensures both Jake Paul and Mike Tyson are fully prepared, with equal training time, as well as allowing us to keep the event at AT&T stadium in the midst of the Cowboys season,” MVP co-founder Nakisa Bidarian said in a statement. After over three years since the exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr. on November 29, 2020, Mike Tyson is returning to face an opponent who is 30 years younger than him. In this regard, several people have already shown great concern about Tyson’s health. For example, right after the date of the fight was announced, Stephen A. Smith highlighted that Tyson walked with a cane in his hand the last time he saw him at a UFC fight. But, now, Tyson seems to be in tremendous shape ahead of the upcoming matchup. Tyson did the cardinal sin of tattooing and got his partner’s portrait inked on his left forearm. If there is one thing you never do it’s tattoo a lover’s name or image on your body. Tyson and Monica Turner met in the mid-90s and married in 1997. They stayed together until 2002, when Turner filed for divorce claiming Tyson had committed adultery throughout their five-year marriage. The divorce was finalized in 2003 and the two went their separate ways.
