How Tyson’s ego shaped him throughout his life

Tyson had a troubled childhood, which saw him use violence and anger from a very young age. However, Tyson’s mentor, Cus D’Amato, was able to channel this anger into boxing, turning Tyson into an unstoppable force. This led to Tyson developing a huge ego which was only fueled by the success he was seeing at such a young age.
