Fans go to extreme lengths to impress their idols! However, this fan broke all the records any fan has ever set. In a recent turn of events, Mike Tyson was out meeting some of his fans during a Tyson 2.0 event. That’s when the hilarious yet impressive incident conspired, leaving Tyson shocked and everyone else in the room clenching their stomachs.
A handful of hours ago, Mike’s Tyson 2.0 Instagram account shared a post on the platform. It showed popular internet personality Gangster Granny greeting ‘Iron’ Mike. Moreover, Adam Wilks, CEO of Tyson 2.0’s parent company, Carma HoldCo. was also present in the room. However, suddenly, a fan walks in, wanting to show something to ‘Iron’ Mike.

Adam Wilks breaks into laughter
Sharing the clip of the incident, the folks at Tyson 2.0 wrote in the caption, “Wow[!] You never know what you’re going to see from the champ’s fans.” It began with Gangster Granny hugging Mike, “Hi Tyson, how you doing?” That’s when the clip cuts to the fan walking into the room and saying, “Got a little surprise for you, Mike. [Are] you ready?”

Intrigued by the fan’s confidence and excitement, Mike said, “Let me check it out!” The fan turned around to show Mike an image of him on the back of the fan’s head. The fan had cut his hair to turn it into Mike’s likeness – smoking a cigar. Amusingly, the cigar was the fan’s hair sticking out! Seeing the unusual site, Wilks stated, “Oh S**t…,” as he broke into laughter.
It even left Mike shocked, as he asked the fan, “How’d you do that?” The fan goes on to say, “It also smokes as well.” When somebody in the room asked Mike if he wanted to see his likeness smoke, he said, “Nah, I will pass.” While this fan’s devotion to Mike is unmatched, something similar happened a while back.

Despite brandishing his arm with a striking Tattoo of Mike’s face, the retired boxer failed to notice the tattoo due to being engrossed with the surroundings. While it might have left the fan heartbroken, Mike also missed out on a beautiful artwork. However, if he had seen it, his reaction would have been similar to his reaction in the first clip.
