During the 1990s, the name Mike Tyson became synonymous with both athletic prowess and personal struggles. His meteoric rise to fame and fortune attracted numerous individuals who sought to exploit his wealth and influence. Moreover, his promoter Don King was among the most notorious figures to allegedly capitalize on Tyson’s vulnerability.

Amid legal battles, ‘Iron’ Mike accused King of deception and fraud, claiming that he had been robbed of a significant portion of his earnings. He even went on to sue the boxing promoter for $100 million, which he won after both parties settled. However, time has shown that Tyson’s indomitable spirit cannot be permanently overshadowed by past grievances.
