The UFC middleweight legend, Michael Bisping, condemned former heavyweight boxing legend Mike Tyson’s actions after the latter got into an altercation with a fan on the flight.

Recently, the former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson made headlines. He got into a violent clash with a fan on a flight en route to Florida from San Francisco. As seen in the video uploaded by TMZ Sports, a fan allegedly pestered the boxing Hall of Famer during the flight.

Consequently, ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ lost his cool and allegedly attacked the fan. He turned back and punched the fan in the face, which left him with a bruise. Well, it was quite evident that the fan will get it from the man who is known for his devastating punching power.

Many fans and athletes backed Tyson, as it was the fan who heckled him in the first place. However, Michael Bisping doesn’t fall under this bracket. In a recent video on his YouTube channel, Bisping discussed the incident. He bashed the fan for his behavior but also condemned Tyson for losing his cool.

He said, “Now, we can’t condone this. I don’t condone it. Mike Tyson should have known better. Mike Tyson is one of the scariest men on the planet. And Mike Tyson was a former and the youngest ever boxing heavyweight champion of the world.”

“You gotta control your fists. Certainly when you are acting like your father zen all the time. Now don’t get me wrong, I am with him. There’s plenty of people that I wanted to slap-up. Plenty of people! But you just can’t do it these days, unfortunately,” Bisping concluded.
