Tyson was traveling from the San Francisco International Airport to Florida on a JetBlue airplane when the incident took place. It was reported that an overzealous fan was harassing Tyson while seated behind him. Tyson asked the passenger to calm down.

However, the fan did not relent. An irritated Tyson then turned around and proceeded to punch the passenger multiple times in the face. Early in May, San Mateo County District Attorney’s Office announced that Tyson will not face any trouble with the law for the incident.

Fans seem to have made in a game to annoy the ‘Baddest man on the planet’. Merely weeks after the infamous plane incident, Tyson was embroiled in another encounter with a fan.

He was posing for pictures with fans at the MGM Grand Garden Arena when a woman leaned over and put her finger across his face. This move annoyed Tyson, who turned around to confront her.
