Fans know Mike Tyson as one of the baddest men on the planet. Even at 55, he still possesses the speed and power that made him one of the most feared boxers. Outside the ring, however, Tyson is one of the nicest and most genuine guys there are.
A meme is going viral, that uses Tyson’s lisp to recreate another viral meme. The ‘Now Kith’ meme is trending on Twitter again. So today we take a look at what the ‘Now Kith’ meme means and where it originated from.

Now Kith meme – Where it originated from
The ‘Now Kith’ meme originated from a meme called the ‘Now Kiss’ meme, which is a webcomic holding up two dolls as if he’s forcing them to kiss. The ‘Now Kith’ meme is the exact same, the only difference is, it shows Tyson holding two pigeons and saying, now kiss.
‘Iron’ Mike Tyson has a bit of a lisp, so he would say it as Now Kith instead of Kiss.

Now kith (Mike Tyson voice). We had a serious caption for this, but we couldn't bring ourselves to post it. 🤷 Happy Velentine’s y’all.

What’s next for Mike Tyson?
Mike Tyson is fresh off an exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr. The former champ is still in training and looks to be in exceptional shape for a 55-year-old. ‘Iron’ Mike wishes to fight again after the success of his comeback fight.
Tyson, on an episode of his podcast Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson, revealed a list of his potential opponents before the end of this year
“I want Holyfield and I want Lennox Lewis this year. I want both of them, I think I can get em both this year … else if I box an exhibition with Tyson Fury. If I do that – even if I can get those two guys, I’ll say this is a wrap, I can go and live my life. And that’s just exhibitions. I’m going to break all my true records with exhibitions.” (h/t BoxingScene)
