From a once-intimidating and feared persona, the former heavyweight champion has embraced a more playful and lighthearted nature in recent years. Throughout his boxing career, Tyson was known for his ferocity and formidable presence inside the ring. However, as time passed, he began to explore different facets of his personality outside of boxing.
This transformation was marked by his involvement in various entertainment projects, such as acting, podcasting, and even venturing into the world of music. The once-feared heavyweight champion has since embraced his playful side and endeared himself to a broader audience.
