Tyson was asked, “Could you fu** it up?”

The former champ replied, “No way. It’s gonna take two seconds for that thing to kill you. I ain’t that fast. I’d be dead so quick I wouldn’t think about fighting. Before I thought about throwing a punch, I’d be dead.”   

Fans of Tyson are aware that he is a student of science, history, and art and that he enjoys delving deeply into these interesting topics. Additionally, he kept pet tigers at home, so he is aware of how much faster and deadlier the animal is than a human.
