The world was shocked when Will Smith approached the stage and slapped American comedian Chris Rock. That incident raised some more critical questions. Even though it’s been more than a year since the slap at the Oscars, it still remains a topic of discussion among fans. And former two-time Heavyweight champion Mike Tyson recently opened up about the incident and shared his thoughts on the whole scenario.

In a recent episode of Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson, the implications of the slap at the Oscars were discussed, and Tyson even had a stern warning for Will Smith.

Mike Tyson’s warning to Chris Rock

If the fans know one thing about ‘Iron’ Mike, he doesn’t shy away from sharing his opinions on different notions. And that’s how things prevailed in this episode of the podcast. Tyson gave his take on the slap to the guests on the podcast. And, when things got a bit serious, Tyson shared insightful advice for Comedian Chris Rock.

The 56-year-old said, “From my experience, anybody is capable of killing you.” This might sound rude and off-topic to some fans, but that statement has some truth. Then a guest added, “The scariest person is the dangerous one in the room.”  The former champ said he would’ve never put himself in that position as Chris Rock did by joking about Will Smith’s wife. Tyson also credited passion as the force which made Smith do what he did at the Oscars last year.

Tyson also let his philosophical side out and said, “what’s happened has happened. Million years ago, it was written. It’s already been written you didn’t navigate yourself here.” It is safe to say that Tyson has given a neutral and well-thought answer to the incident.

Mike Tyson and his association with Hollywood

The person who once dominated the sport of boxing at a time also tried his hand at acting, and it can be said that he did not do a bad job. Tyson made his acting debut in the first Hangover movie and since then has been a part of numerous movies, including IP Man 3 and many others.

Tyson always had a relationship with Hollywood. From being married to Robbin Givens, a prominent Hollywood actor at the time, to being involved in movies himself, Tyson has seen it all. The former two-time Heavyweight champ has become a gentle giant and every bit of that is loved by the fans.
