Mike Tyson is back on our television screens as he aims to make regular appearances to remind fans of his massive boxing return. One such television appearance came on a TV show that UFC President Dana White booked to ensure the boxer doesn’t step back inside the ring! Now, ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ opened up on his tryst with the sharks on the show.

He said, “Listen, I don’t know how they did this. The money wasn’t really that great and stuff, you know? I’m sorry shark world, them guys underpaid me and they had me out there.”

The boxer described the experience as interesting and said, “I was there and it was really interesting man. It was really interesting, I mean how did these guys get me in the air.”

Tyson jokingly spoke about Dana White, who got him the show. However, the UFC President had aims which ‘Iron Mike’ could not understand. He burst out with laughter as he said, “He was doing me a favor. I don’t want Mike to fight, let’s have Mike do a couple of gigs with these guys.”
