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.”

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.

Mike Tyson’s airplane fiasco

Tyson was in the news for punching an airplane passenger on April 20.
