In the sport of boxing, legends like Adrien Broner and Mike Tyson have left an indelible mark, not just through their boxing prowess but also through their outlook on life outside the ring. Recently, Adrien ‘The Problem’ Broner turned to Instagram to share a clip of ‘Iron’ Mike, conveying a strong message about friendship to his followers. Broner himself has been going through a rough patch in life, as his mentor and coach passed away recently.

Moreover, Broner is supposed to face Chris Howard on December 2 as part of the ‘Only in America 92 Celebration’ organized by legendary promoter Don King. Meanwhile, Broner has been active on social media and decided to share a forgotten clip of ‘Iron’ Mike. What prompted Broner to share the clip of ‘Iron’ Mike talking about friendship is not known. However, Mike’s strong lesson on friendship should explain how Broner is feeling right now.

Mike Tyson claims only people who know someone can hate them

In the story ‘The Problem’ shared on his Instagram, ‘Iron’ Mike confessed no one can be really sure who their friends are. However, Mike suggested friends become enemies because they got to know you. “No one knows who their friends are. Only reason they become their enemy is because they were your friend,” said Mike. He went on to suggest that people don’t develop sudden animosity toward someone for no reason.

Mike emphasizes that only the people who know somebody can develop contempt against them. “Somebody that gets to know you, they get familiar with you, and familiarity as you know breeds contempt,” said ‘Iron’ Mike. He then explains that friends develop jealousy and want to take his place and can’t understand why he is successful. “Then they want to be you…they can’t understand why a guy just not so attractive and non educated man rises to the occasion,” said Mike.
