Mike Tyson and his pigeons

The former champ has loved pigeons from the age of 9. ‘Iron Mike’ had a very rough childhood while growing up. In fact, he claimed that the pigeons were an escape from the bullying he experienced as an overweight child.

Tyson has had his share of insane pets, including the Bengal tigers. Besides that, Tyson, an animal lover, also has an array of pigeons. The champ had a special preference for the ludicrously expensive Janssen racing pigeons. Furthermore, it is said that he paid a whopping USD 20,000 each for his three Janssen pigeons.

Additionally, the monthly upkeep for his array of cats and birds cost the champ a mind-boggling USD 400,000.
