“We’re doing business with guys right now”- Mike Tyson

“Na, na we got many guys. Listen we’ve got so many guys that want to do this, man. We’re in calls, we’re doing business with guys right now. You’re not going to believe the names when the names come out. Sometime this week we’ll have the contract done. And whatever money we get, it’s going to somebody else. I’m not going to make any money – probably the company, my wife because she’s partners with me, she’ll make some probably. But my money is going to charity”. Said Tyson
