Mike Tyson once said, “Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.” The saying has survived his illustrious career, being retold on multiple platforms.

The former undisputed king of the heavyweight division was known for his fierce power inside the boxing. In an incredible career spanning almost 2 decades, Tyson cruised past almost all of his opponents with his sheer knockout power.

However, the former heavyweight champion has had his ups and downs. Be that as it may, he has never felt better than he is feeling right now. Talking about his ego, which had taken a toll during the tough times, here’s what Mike had to say.

“It’s so much more healthier than it has ever been.” 

He has taken on some of the most prolific boxers, skilled punchers, and lethal strikers. However, after everything was said and done, it was Iron Mike getting his hand raised inside the ring.

“I am gonna go to Plan B, punch him back.”

In response to his famous quote, Tyson was asked what his plan will be if he gets punched in the face in the upcoming exhibition bout. Needless to say, he had a reply for the ages.
