The nineties was a golden period for boxing as some of the greatest boxers of all time were in their prime. Mike Tyson was one of the figures that carried boxing on his shoulders in the latter part of the 1990s. He was regarded as the most brutal boxer to ever have lived. The man is renowned for being aggressive, but sometimes your own anger can lead you down unspoken paths.

The recent episode of Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson was a rather special one, as Tyson’s therapist was invited as a guest. Furthermore, they talked about Tyson’s life and how he prevailed over everything in life despite the circumstances.

Moreover, as the podcast progressed, Mike Tyson stated, “I can’t even explain and articulate, it’s just a really serious mindf**k. You know, not being able to control yourself, like an instinctive animal. And it takes skills, and I was just very grateful and very lucky to have the opportunity to meet brother Seano. There’s no way I would have done it. I would have been dead by now.”

Mike Tyson’s therapist reveals the dark truth about the boxer 

The Baddest Man on the Planet is considered the most ruthless and tough fighter in the history of boxing. However, behind the tough guy, there is a little boy from Brooklyn who had a disturbed childhood and has now become one of the most revered athletes in the world. Even though Tyson has moved on from his past, the boxer still feels its lingering effects.

Furthermore, his therapist Seano described, “You could pay him a compliment, he want to kill you for it. It’s too painful sometimes to feel that intimacy, to feel that love, to feel that care. And just wants to be left alone, and what he just did that we’ve had many versions of that, and he had to learn how not to run away and face that. Because he knows better than anybody, he’s talked about the greatest enemy. The greatest fight he’s ever had is his mind.”
