The Nelk Boys, namely Kyle Forgeard, Stephen Deleonardis, and Jesse Sebastiani, were talking on their ‘Full Send Podcast‘. During the conversation, Deleonardis mentioned that Tyson did not face any trouble with the law for punching the JetBlue airplane passenger.

In response, Forgeard mentioned how the passenger deserved it. He even emphasized how the passenger’s face was annoying, to begin with. Forgeard said, “Of course he deserved it. Dude, that kid’s face was f*c*ing annoying. Like just seeing the guy’s face. Did you see the guy’s face? It was so f*c*ing annoying. I do not know why.”

Further, he also added, “I think, everyone agrees, the guy deserved it. I mean why like? Mike’s such a calm guy. Like you’re always a little scared if he’s gonna like you don’t wanna piss him off.”

Deleonardis also chimed in, saying that the passenger deserved a lot more. He said, “He’s such a respectful, great dude. And that kid he should be able to do it to him again and again. That f*c*ing kid deserved everything.”

However, Sebastiani hilariously asks why everyone, him included, is intimidated by Tyson. He also adds, “I don’t feel intimidated around any of the UFC guys.”

To this, Deleonardis hilariously responds, “Mike has a couple screws loose in the best way possible. Mike has f*c*ing loose, like everybody. I have screws loose. But Mike will f**k you up if you talk sh*t. But he’s also the nicest f*c*ing dude on the planet. So just don’t piss him off.”

Moreover, the Nelk Boys also decided to start a GoFundMe page if the passenger decided to sue.
