This Man Made Mike Tyson So Nervous ‘Iron Mike’ Wanted to Publicly Assassinate Him

‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ was one of the most feared fighters in the nineties. Even the rage in his eyes was enough to send shivers down the opponent’s spine. But this destructible attitude did not come naturally. Tyson has been through a lot in his childhood, which aided him in becoming the ruthless boxer that he is. 

‘Iron Mike’ once shared an incident when he was on the verge of shooting a bully in his head. He stated, “He tried to bully me once. And he is kind of big, he makes me nervous without his gloves and the shorts on. So if he ever tried to intimidate me again. I’ma implant a bullet in his motherfu**ing skull.”

When he was at his best, the boxer was a rage-filled wrecking ball who could easily defeat any foe. But occasionally, rage can transform a person into someone else, endangering their life.

Mike Tyson once thrashed a gang leader 

Tyson fought Mitch Green in 1986 at the Madison Square Garden in New York. Eventually, Kid Dynamite secured a win via decision. But this did not end here. Two years later, Tyson went into a store to buy something in the morning at 4 am. Unexpectedly, Green was the leader of a gang there.

Tyson described in his podcast Hotboxin with Mike Tyson, “He [Green] started talking and saying, ‘What the f*k you doing in my hood, n***r?’ Then it was on from there.”

Furthermore, the fight went on for a while right on the street. Tyson knocked him down a couple of times, but he kept getting back up as he was high on angel dust (PCP). Tyson further explained that he tried to escape from the brawl as he saw an opportunity. He rushed to his car, but Mitch came and broke the side mirror.

Tyson further added, “I got out of the car. I went out of the car and I said, ‘Excuse me one minute. I hit Mitch and Mitch went down and he bent over and I grabbed his head and I hit him one time and his head hit the floor. The concrete. Boom!” 

Green was severely injured due to this, and he sued Tyson over the injuries he suffered.
