<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Alexander Volkanovski: Net Worth 2024, Record and Business Ventures</strong></h2>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Who is Alexander Volkanovski?</strong></h2>
An Australian professional MMA fighter, 35-year-old Alexander Volkanovski currently fights in the Featherweight division under the greatest promotion of the sport, UFC. He was born in Wollongong, New South Wales, on 29 September 1988.

Despite training in combat sports and even winning two national titles for Greco-Roman wrestling at the early age of 12, by 14 years he opted to try his hands in the Rugby league as a front rower. This won him numerous accolades but as fate would have it, as he turned 23, his interests shifted towards MMA. A fan of UFC events, he debuted for the promotion in 2016.

The noted UFC fighter, Alexander Volkanovski, is currently awaiting his fight against Illia Topuria, at UFC 298, on 17 February 2024.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Alexander Volkanovski's early life</strong></h2>
Volkanovski has mixed ancestry. His mother, Mary Volkanovski, is from Greece, while his father, Tony Volkanovski, has Macedonian ancestry and was born in Yugoslavia. Volkanovski's mixed ancestry inspired him to give himself the moniker 'The Great', following Alexander The Great, who also had a Macedonian-Greek origin.

Reports say that he also has an older sibling who is a fighter as well. 'Volk' was a fervent rugby fan apart from MMA. Further, he also kicked off his athletic career with rugby. He used to play for the Warilla Gorillas as a semi-pro. In the year 2010, he was also awarded the Mick Cronin Medal as the Group 7 Rugby League's best player.
<div class="jsx-1883686743">
<div class="jsx-901529394 es-image-loader-aspect-ratio"><img id="img-tag-node--img-loader-0" class="jsx-901529394 aligncenter" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/AlexanderVolkanovski.png" /></div>
</div>
His initial coach, Joe Lopez, revealed 'Volk' started to train in MMA and Greco-Roman Wrestling when he was 22. Although he started it as an off-season activity to keep himself fit, he soon grew a knack for the sport of MMA and chose it as his livelihood as well.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Alexander Volkanovski's wife and children</h2>
Alexander Volkanovski has been married to his wife Emma Volkanovski since the 12th of October 2012. Although not much is known about Emma's maiden life, Volkanovski in his social media posts made it known that they were high school sweethearts and had dated for 7 years before tying the knot.

Since their marriage, they have become a family of 4, welcoming two daughters. His eldest, Ariana was born in 2015, and his youngest Arlie in 2017.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>What is </b><b>Alexander Volkanovski's</b><b> net worth in 2024?</b></h2>
Owing to the huge crowds, 'The Great' draws in his fights, the UFC also provides him with remarkable sums of money for his bouts. As per reports, the Australian currently boasts a net worth of $3.5M.
<figure class="jsx-b9c5e7fc3c08d611">
<div class="jsx-3245111776 es-image-loader-aspect-ratio"><img id="img-tag-node--img-loader-0" class="jsx-3245111776 aligncenter" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-1235507372.jpg" /></div>

</figcaption></figure>
Volkanovski also receives his pay per fight, similar to every other UFC fighter. The majority of UFC supporters are also aware that it varies from one fight to another. 'The Great' earned his biggest fight purse to date for his UFC 290 bout against the noted, <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/yair-rodriguez/" target="_self" rel="noopener"><strong>Yair Rodriguez</strong></a>. Reports suggest that 'Volk' pocketed a massive $2,142,000 for this fight.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Alexander Volkanovski's MMA career and UFC record</h2>
Volkanovski had four fights as an amateur. At 23, he decided to make a career out of mixed martial arts and defeated Gerhard Voigt in his first professional MMA bout. 'The Great' went 3-0 before suffering his first and what would become his only MMA loss, and it came in the welterweight division. Alexander Volkanovski's weight loss, as aforementioned he was a 214-pound rugby player, was the recipe for his success.

After amassing thirteen wins in Australia, Guam, and New Zealand, Volkanovski finally made it to the United States and took over the UFC featherweight division after debuting in the lightweight division. As of 2023, he is at #2 in UFC men's pound-for-pound rankings.
<figure class="jsx-b9c5e7fc3c08d611">

Alexander Volkanovski dominated his first five opponents in the UFC before fighting returning veteran, Chad Mendes. Although he faced some early adversity against Mendes, Volkanovski turned the tables and knocked him out. He was then matched up against the first UFC featherweight champion, <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/jose-aldo/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Jose Aldo</a>.

As 'The Great' outclassed the legend, Aldo, in his hometown, Brazil, at UFC 237, he received his first-ever title shot against the third-ever UFC featherweight champion <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/max-holloway/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Max Holloway</a>. At UFC 245, 'The Great' conquered Holloway and resolutely won the UFC featherweight championship.
<div class="jsx-1883686743">
<div class="jsx-1670390786 es-image-loader-aspect-ratio"><img id="img-tag-node--img-loader-0" class="jsx-1670390786 aligncenter" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200718010704/max-holloway-alexander-volkanovski.jpg" /></div>
</div>
The duo re-matched at UFC 251. As Max Holloway looked strong in the early rounds, many people thought 'Blessed' did enough to regain his UFC gold. But, the judges had other thoughts and awarded the decision to 'The Great'. With two wins over Holloway, Volkanovski inched his way toward the GOAT status in the featherweight division.

In 2021, he made his second title defense against Brian Ortega on September 25, 2021, at <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/ufc-266/" target="_self" rel="noopener">UFC 266: </a>Alexander Volkanovski vs. Brian Ortega. Alexander Volkanovski's record in UFC stood at an impressive 10-0.

Alexander Volkanovski had his next fight in the main event of UFC 273 PPV against '<a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/chan-sung-jung/" target="_self" rel="noopener">The Korean Zombie</a>' Chan Sung Jung at the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Florida, United States. 'Volk' put on a display of his insane striking prowess, finishing off Jung in the fourth round of the bout.

Moving on, 'The Great' once again faced his former rival Max Holloway at UFC 276. But the result wasn't much different.

Volkanovski's only UFC loss to date came in his UFC 284 main event bout against the current UFC Lightweight champ, <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/islam-makhachev/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Islam Makhachev</a>. 'Volk' decided to move up a division in order to give himself a shot at the coveted 'champ-champ' status. Despite putting up a real enthraller of a bout, the judges ruled in favor of Makhachev via a controversial unanimous decision. Next, he defended his featherweight title against Yair Rodriguez at UFC 290.

Before joining the UFC, Alexander Volkanovski also has one boxing match under his belt. The bout took place on April 17, 2015, at super welterweight inside the Hurstville Entertainment Center, Australia. 'The Great' won the four-round battle via a unanimous decision.

In his pro-MMA career, Alexander Volkanovski has won a championship in every weight class (welterweight, lightweight, featherweight) he has fought at. In the UFC, he claimed a Fight of the Night bonus remarkable performance against Chad Mendes. Also, his title defense against Max Holloway at UFC 276, after which he picked up one loss as well.

</b></h3>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Israel Adesanya: Net Worth 2023</b></h2>
The former Middleweight champion, Israel Adesanya, is undoubtedly one of the most noted figures in the entire UFC. While many have called out the promotion for allegedly underpaying its athletes, Adesanya may call himself an exception to this. As per the latest reports, the Nigerian-New Zealander boasts a net worth of around $4M.

[caption id="attachment_1634411" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-1634411" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago0043083391h.jpg" alt="Israel Adesanya" width="1920" height="1357" /> UFC 243 OPEN WORKOUTS, Israel Adesanya trains during a UFC 243 open workout session at Federation Square in Melbourne, Thursday, October 3, 2019.

Adesanya joined the UFC back in December 2017. Since then, it has been quite a glorious ride for 'The Last Stylebender'. After crowning himself as the Middleweight champion in 2019, Adesanya went on to become one of the highest-paid athletes in the UFC. 'Izzy' had his last fight at the UFC 281 on 13 November 2022, where he received a base salary of about $1M for the fight against <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alex-pereira/">Alex Pereira.</a> 'The Last Stylebender' received a further $800k apart from his $1M basic salary, which made it his biggest UFC fight purse which stood at a massive $1.8M.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Israel Adesanya's Early Life and Family</b></h2>
Adesanya was born in Nigeria. His father, Oluwafemi earned his livelihood as an accountant and his mother, Taiwo worked as a nurse. 'Izzy' was the eldest of his five siblings. He went to Chrisland School, Opebi, and also got himself enrolled in the Taekwondo club of the school. His mother later got him out of there after he sustained an injury.

Adesanya also spent 10 months in Ghana since their family relocated. However, his parents wanted him to get better quality higher education and sent him to Rotorua in New Zealand. Adesanya was just 10 years of age at that time. Although Adesanya didn't take any interest in sports after joining Rotorua Boys' High School, his choice was altered when he faced regular bullying in his high school years.

Although 'Izzy' has never been vocal about his relationships, he gave out of hint to his eagle-eyed fans when he posted some snaps of himself with a lady.

Adesanya and Evers follow each other on Instagram. The speculations about their relationship started when Adesanya liked and commented on a 1 September 2021 post from Evers. Although, 'Izzy' hasn't expressed any desire to publicize his relationship, still it's known that the couple isn't married yet and also doesn't have any kids together.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Israel Adesanya?s Endorsements</b></h2>
Apart from his earnings from the UFC, a lot of brand endorsements also contribute to the $6M net worth of 'The Last Stylebender'. Some of his noted endorsements are:
<ul>
 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400">First MMA star to have Puma as a sponsor.</span></li>
 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400">Ambassador for Stake.com</span></li>

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Israel Adesanya Charities</b></h2>
Having a life with a number of luxuries didn't make Adesanya forget about the less fortunate. He is a regular donator for various noble causes but <a href="https://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/ufc-middleweight-champion-israel-adesanya-reveals-charitable-side-and-why-he-keeps-it-to-himself/2EOBNFCDZN54ZWRLTLEBQZGJCM/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">prefers keeping them to himself</a>. Also, Izzy refrains from making donations to large organizations since they might become public knowledge. Instead, he prefers providing aid to smaller entities.

He once revealed, <em>"My sister, who's a nurse, was telling me about the hospital needing beds. I donated $20,000 just to help them out and they got a few new beds ? more than a few new beds."</em>

Adesanya also sponsored 10,000 three-ply face masks and 1000 eye protection face shields for Whanganui's frontline health staff in the fight against Covid-19. Evidently, 'Izzy's' cares about others' requirements as well, apart from his own.

While many have called out the promotion for allegedly underpaying its athletes, Adesanya may call himself an exception to this. As per the latest reports, the Nigerian-New Zealander boasts a net worth of around $4M. UFC 243 OPEN WORKOUTS, Israel Adesanya trains during a UFC 243 open workout session at Federation Square in Melbourne, Thursday, October 3, 2019.

Since then, it has been quite a glorious ride for &#8216;The Last Stylebender&#8217;. After crowning himself as the Middleweight champion in 2019, Adesanya went on to become one of the highest-paid athletes in the UFC. &#8216;Izzy&#8217; had his last fight at the UFC 281 on 13 November 2022, where he received a base salary of about $1M for the fight against Alex Pereira. &#8216;The Last Stylebender&#8217; received a further $800k apart from his $1M basic salary, which made it his biggest UFC fight purse which stood at a massive $1.8M. Israel Adesanya&#8217;s Early Life and Family Adesanya was born in Nigeria. His father, Oluwafemi earned his livelihood as an accountant and his mother, Taiwo worked as a nurse. &#8216;Izzy&#8217; was the eldest of his five siblings. He went to Chrisland School, Opebi, and also got himself enrolled in the Taekwondo club of the school. His mother later got him out of there after he sustained an injury. Adesanya also spent 10 months in Ghana since their family relocated. However, his parents wanted him to get better quality higher education and sent him to Rotorua in New Zealand.

Following his superb debut, Adesanya continued to showcase his prowess in the UFC Middleweight division. He defeated a number of noted UFC Middleweights, including the legendary Anderson Silva, which lined him up for a title shot against the famed, Kelvin Gastelum. &#8216;Izzy&#8217; put up a superb display of his courage in the bout as he claimed the UFC Middleweight Championship with a unanimous decision victory in the bout.

<p class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Max Holloway 2024: Record, Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</strong></p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Who is Max Holloway?</h2>
Max Holloway is a former UFC featherweight champion and currently the #2 ranked fighter (as of April 2024) in the 145 lbs division. Following in the footsteps of the likes of BJ Penn, Holloway has represented Hawaii exceptionally well on the global MMA stage and was already a divisional legend before he was 30 years old. He turned professional in 2010 and was in the UFC in 2012 at just 20 years of age. He was the youngest fighter on the UFC roster at the time. Currently, he's the 4th youngest fighter the UFC has ever signed.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Max Holloway's early life</h2>
Growing up, Max Holloway had an absent father and a mother who had taken drugs. In an interview he gave to <a href="https://theberrics.com/born-to-fight-max-holloway-and-how-he-got-here" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Berrics</a>, the 32-year-old admitted he was essentially raised by his grandparents. These factors were a huge motivation for him to find success in life, and to be a better parent to his son.

Holloway took up kickboxing when he was in 10th grade after his friend's coach took notice of him hitting the speed bag. When he was 16, his coach offered Holloway a fight at a local event after the original candidate dropped out. Holloway took the fight to save the $35 he was going to spend on the ticket to the same event.

(Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC/Zuffa LLC)[/caption]

Holloway recalled how K1 kickboxing in Japan was all the rage at the time. Two years later, the BJ Penn era of the UFC caught his eye. His compatriot's achievements and financial success from MMA pushed young Max to decide he wanted it for himself.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Max Holloway's wife and son</h2>
Max Holloway married his first wife, Kaimana Pa'aluhi, a model and actress, in 2014 and divorced in 2017. He has a son with her - Rush Holloway. The story of his birth is closely tied to Max's success. Rush was born the same night Holloway received his UFC contract. A few hours after he signed and sent back his first-ever UFC deal, he was holding 'Mini Blessed' in his hands.

<img class="size-medium wp-image-2044380 aligncenter" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Max-Holloway-with-wife-560x315.png" alt="" width="560" height="315" />

He started his UFC career with a loss against <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/dustin-poirier/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Dustin Poirier</a> at UFC 143. He then won three straight in 2012 before losing to Dennis Bermudez and future double champion <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/conor-mcgregor/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Conor McGregor</a>, in 2013. After a few losses in his early career, Holloway did not look back and started his climb to the top. He went on an impressive 13-fight win streak following his loss to McGregor.

After racking up nine consecutive wins in the featherweight division, Holloway finally fought for UFC gold. However, it was for an interim championship against <strong>Anthony Pettis</strong>. 'Blessed' Holloway won the match by stopping Pettis in the third round.

He then fought <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/jose-aldo/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Jose Aldo</a> in a title unification bout. Holloway stopped Aldo in two back-to-back fights in 2017, unifying the belt in the first and then defending it for the first time in the second. Then after three canceled bouts in 2018, Holloway made his second title defense against <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/brian-ortega/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Brian Ortega</a> in December 2018.

Shortly after, he returned to featherweight to fight <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/frankie-edgar/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Frankie Edgar</a>.

After defeating Edgar and defending his title for the third time, Holloway fought <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alexander-volkanovski/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Alexander Volkanovski</a> at UFC 245. Unfortunately, he lost the bout via a unanimous decision. 'Blessed' tried to recapture his belt, but he came up short at UFC 251 in a razor-thin bout.

His next outing was against <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/calvin-kattar/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Calvin Kattar</a> in January 2021 and he won the lopsided fight via a unanimous decision. He then beat <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/yair-rodriguez/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Yair Rodriguez</a> in November 2021, yet again via a unanimous decision. In his only fight in 2022, Holloway tried to retake the belt from Volkanovski in a trilogy bout at UFC 276. Once again, the Australian bested 'Blessed' (unanimous decision) in what was the most convincing win for the champion in their trilogy.

In 2023, Holloway bounced back with two big wins. One was a unanimous decision win over rising prospect Arnold Allen. The second was a walk-off KO of divisional legend Chan Sung Jung. Holloway's MMA record currently stands at 25-7, with a UFC record of 21-7.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Mike Tyson's net worth in 2024</strong></h2>
At his peak, Mike Tyson was one of the wealthiest boxers on the planet. But over time, he lost most of his wealth owing to a lavish lifestyle. Reportedly, he had only $146,000 when he joined WrestleMania 14, post the 'Bite Fight' suspension. According to <strong>Celebrity Net Worth,</strong> Mike Tyson's net worth is $10 million. This could be ascribed primarily to the 2020 'Lockdown Knockdown' against Roy Jones Jr.

From winning his first world title, the WBC heavyweight, to his retirement, 'Iron' Mike received some of the biggest paychecks of the day. Tyson received $1.5 million during the Trevor Berbick fight. In the 90s, it went to double digits. He reportedly earned $30 million during the war against Frank Bruno and the two battles against Evander Holyfield. However, the biggest paycheck he earned was during the Lennox Lewis fight. It reportedly fetched him $103 million.

So if all the fight money Mike Tyson made during his time is summed, it goes to around $400 million. But boxing has not been the only source of income for the former world champion. Given his name and the weight it carries worldwide, an array of brands tied up with the legendary boxer to endorse their products, services, and sponsorships throughout his career. His most recent sponsors include Black Energy Drink, CopperGel, and Smart Cups.

Additionally, his merchandise is operated from his ranch, aptly named 'Tyson Ranch.' Tyson has even started his cannabis empire called Tyson 2.0, with its slogan, 'Undisputed Cannabis.' One of the unique products from the company is a cannabis-based gummy line, 'Mike Bites.' These gummies, shaped like Holyfield's ear, marked his partnership with the former opponent, Evander Holyfield.?

Tyson and Holyfield's joint venture is called 'Carma Holdings.' Last year they launched another line of products called 'Holy Bites.' Tyson 2.0 also saw the champ partnering with former WWE star Ric Flair. The company also acquired a majority stake in Flair's 'Ric Flair Drip' line. The entire cannabis venture reportedly earns him $900k per month. A two-hour personal appearance of Mike Tyson could come somewhere in the neighborhood of $75k. Tyson's earnings from podcasts such as 'Hotboxin' With Mike Tyson' remain non-verifiable.

<span style="font-weight: 400">In recent times, the former heavyweight champion has significantly expanded his portfolio by acquiring more sponsorships and brand deals. Among them, Tyson Pro offers a line of performance apparel. Following suit, the MT Collection presents official Mike Tyson merchandise. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Additionally, Tyson has partnered with Men's Remedy, which provides expert-backed testosterone treatment. He is also in collaboration with Zumiez, a lifestyle fashion brand. Finally, Futurola provides premium smoking accessories like Pre-rolls and cones.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: center">Mike Tyson's early life</h2>
Mike Tyson was born on June 30, 1966, in Brooklyn, New York's Fort Greene. He had two other siblings, both older, Rodney and Denise. Later, through his mother's second marriage to Jimmy Kirkpatrick, he had a half-brother as well, Jimmie Lee Kirkpatrick.

The crime-prone Brooklyn neighborhood was not the ideal place for a kid to grow up. However, with no alternatives, Tyson, his mother, and his siblings went through everyday survival. The future world champion, over a while, built a reputation as a street fighter.

Turning to gang-related activities, reportedly, by the time he turned thirteen, local police arrested him over thirty-eight times! A frequent visitor to juvenile correctional facilities, Tyson's life changed when he landed at Tryon School for Boys in Johnstown, New York.?
<h2 style="text-align: center">Mike Tyson's family life</h2>
Mike Tyson's mother, Lorna Smith, was born in 1927. She had three kids with Purcell Tyson, a cab driver of Jamaican origin. Later, she married Jimmy Kirkpatrick and had another child. Kirkpatrick left the family, leaving Lorna Smith and the children to fend for themselves. They changed places frequently on account of financial difficulties. She suffered from cancer and died in 1982 at age fifty-five.

The troubled childhood had an impact on Iron Mike's relationships. The thrice-married former world champion's first marriage to actress Robin Givens barely lasted a year, from February 7, 1988, to February 14, 1989. After that, she filed for divorce, reportedly on the grounds of domestic violence and abuse at the hands of Tyson.

The second marriage to pediatrician Monica Turner lasted six years, from April 19, 1997, to January 14, 2003. Their relationship collapsed because of frequent adultery committed by the boxing legend. Nevertheless, they had two kids together. On June 6, 2009, Tyson married for the third time. Tyson and Lakhia "Kiki" Spicer are now proud parents to two kids.

Mike Tyson fathered three more kids through relations with other women. But sadly, on May 26, 2009, his daughter, Exodus Tyson, passed away. Among Tyson's kids, his daughter Milan seems to have picked her father's propensity for sports. Taking up the tennis racket at an early age, she is under the wings of Patrick Mouratoglou, Serena Williams' former trainer.?
<h2 style="text-align: center">Mike Tyson's ex-girlfriends and wives</h2>
Apart from his current spouse, Lakhia Spicer, and two formers, Robin Givens and Monica Turner, Mike Tyson reportedly had relationships with other women. Among the many names whose link-up with 'Iron' Mike grabbed headlines, the most prominent include Luz Whitney, Coco Johnsen, and Naomi Campbell. Besides the above, his affair with Kimberly Scarborough resulted in his first child, Mikey Lorna Tyson. In addition, he? had two kids, Miguel and Exodus, with Sol Xochitl when they were in a relationship from 2004 to 2005.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>How did Mike Tyson lose his daughter?</strong></h2>
Tyson's daughter Exodus passed away on May 26, 2009. Reportedly, she was found motionless by her brother Miguel on May 25. He found her entwined in a chord swinging from a treadmill. Despite their mother administering CPR and subsequent hospitalization, Exodus passed away the next day.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Mike Tyson's early boxing career</h2>
Mike Tyson's fate turned for good at the Tryon School for Boys. One of the counselors, Bobby Stewart, saw an excellent boxing prospect in the young teenager from the hoods. So he took him to legendary trainer Cus D'Amato, who, recognizing the youngster's talents, brought matters to the next level by adopting him.

The duo soon started working on some of the unique techniques developed by the trainer who previously worked with Floyd Patterson. Mike Tyson made his first amateur debut at age fifteen. Participating in the National Junior Olympics games, he won gold medals for two consecutive years, 1981 and 1982. He won the gold medal at the National Golden Gloves tournament in 1984.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Mike Tyson's professional career</h2>
Mike Tyson was now ready to face the world. Launching his professional career on March 6, 1985, he beat Hector Mercedes with a first-round technical KO. Eighteen months later, on November 22, 1986, Tyson won his first world title, WBC heavyweight. He became the youngest heavyweight champion in the sport's history at age twenty. By this time, he had fought and defeated twenty-seven fighters. Out of which, barring one, the rest all were knockout victories.

Sadly, Cus D'Amato was not present to see his prodigy's achievement. The legendary trainer succumbed to pneumonia on November 4, 1985. Mike Tyson won the WBA heavyweight title in 1987 and became the world's undisputed champion. Then, on August 1, 1987, he added the IBF heavyweight belt to the list.

On January 22, 1988, while defending his titles, 'Iron' Mike fought former heavyweight champion, Larry Holmes. The latter had beaten Muhammad Ali on October 2, 1980. Hence, when the turn came, many reported on Mike Tyson avenging his boxing idol. The fight ended with a fourth-round knockout win for the twenty-one-year-old world champion.

Two years later, fortune changed hands as Mike Tyson faced his first defeat. On February 11, 1990, Buster Douglas knocked out 'The Baddest Man on the Planet' in the tenth round. Though he went on to win the next eight fights and even regained the WBC and WBA titles, the clock was ticking against him. Then, on November 9, 1996, Mike Tyson suffered his second defeat. Evander Holyfield beat him via TKO in the eleventh round. But it was the second fight that entered the pages of infamy.

The duo met for their rematch on June 28, 1997. But the slugfest turned ugly when Tyson bit parts of Holyfield's right ear. Initially allowed to continue, the referee finally stopped the fight and disqualified Tyson. "The Bite Fight" resulted in the Nevada State Athletic Commission revoking Tyson's boxing license besides imposing a $3 million fine.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1670407" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago0001377755h.jpg" alt="Mike Tyson vs Evander Holyfield" />

'Iron' Mike finally returned to the ring on January 16, 1999. After that, he won a slew of matches. However, his last and final attempt at regaining the championship title ended disastrously. On June 8, 2002, Briton Lennox Lewis sent Tyson to the canvas in the eighth round, dashing the latter's last charge. On February 22, 2003, Mike Tyson won for the last time against Clifford Etienne. For the next two years, he lost two fights consecutively, the second being the last fight of his career. The former champion formally retired in 2005.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Mike Tyson's boxing style</h2>
A close study of Mike Tyson's moves, hand movements, and ring strategy would reveal him to be essentially a swarmer. Swarmers, for the uninitiated, are boxers who bear down on an opponent, all the while throwing a volley of punches, including uppercuts and hooks. The only drawback is that the move entails going through foes' vicious attacks to stage a successful onslaught.

Apart from 'Iron Mike,' a few other notable swarmers included Joe Frazier, Rocky Marciano, and Jake LaMotta. In Tyson's case, Cus D'Amato taught a technique that became the former's signature style to escape the barrage of punches thrown at him. Through 'Peek-A-Boo,' a boxer kills two birds with one stone. First, he creates a potent defense by raising his hands. Next, constant bobbing lets him slip the opponent's punches and cover the distance. Finally, once inside, at a reasonable time, place a counter-attack. Thus, once inside, Mike Tyson would draw power from the leg he leaned to pull and throw a devastating knockout punch.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Mike Tyson's foray into coaching</strong></h2>
2023 marked Mike Tyson's coaching debut. The youngest heavyweight champion of the world guided the former UFC heavyweight champion <strong>Francis Ngannou</strong> as the latter transitioned into boxing. And it turned out to be a huge success as Ngannou put on a stellar performance against the current WBC heavyweight champion of the world <strong>Tyson Fury</strong> on <strong>October 28, 2023, </strong>billed <strong>"The Battle of the Baddest".</strong> The Cameroonian shocked the world by knocking down Tyson Fury in the third round, and going the distance with the 'Gypsy King'. Although Ngannou lost on the judges' scorecard by a controversial split decision, the fans lauded his boxing skills honed under Mike Tyson's mentorship.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Mike Tyson's extraordinary spending</h2>
By his admission, Mike Tyson lived a king-size lifestyle. The youngest heavyweight champion in boxing's history would make a habit of splurging money. Expensive homes, cars, and exotic animals were a few of the items that fancied 'Iron' Mike.

His $4 million Connecticut mansion had a nightclub and a casino! Not done, he purchased properties in Nevada, California, and Ohio. Most of the acquisitions came fully furnished. And at some, the champion added whatever he fancied.

The above is just a glimpse of the kind of life Mike Tyson lived. There are instances like purchasing a bathtub worth $2 million for his wife. Generous to a fault, he would dish out lavish gifts to friends and strangers. But as all good things and time come to an end, Tyson's spending spree fizzled out by the century's first decade. Per rough estimates, he owed lenders nearly $23 million.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Mike Tyson's acting career</strong></h2>
Mike Tyson has had an on-off relationship with Tinseltown. Initially, he kicked off with cameo roles, often playing himself. For instance, the 2006 release,<strong> 'Rocky Balboa.'</strong> But his major acting breakthrough came with the 2009 release, 'The Hangover.' He was present in the sequel as well. Other movies with Tyson playing key roles include <strong>'Kickboxer: Retaliation,'</strong> '<strong>The Devil May Care,</strong>' and <strong>'IP Man 3.</strong>' Last year he also featured in the French action comedy film <strong>'Medellin'</strong>.
<h2 style="text-align: center">When did Mike Tyson go to jail?</h2>
While living in the hood, Tyson had been a state guest numerous times. But he served a significant prison sentence when the court found him guilty of assaulting model Desiree Washington in 1992. Initially sentenced to six years' incarceration, he came out, just short of the three years, in 1995.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Where does Mike Tyson live now?</h2>
The former world champion currently resides with his family in Henderson, Nevada. It is situated roughly sixteen miles southeast of 'Sin City,' Las Vegas.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Mike Tyson's car collection and luxuries in 2024</h2>
Tyson owned nearly a hundred vehicles, many of which were high-end and pricey pieces. In 1985, he shelled out $30k to buy his first car, a Cadillac Eldorado. After that, he made a habit of gifting himself a Rolls Royce whenever the occasion arose. Then his close friend, rapper Tupac Shakur inspired him to look closely at Mercedes models. As a result, in 1989, he bought a Mercedes Benz SL Class with a price tag of $48k.

Among other models, 'Iron' Mike used to own a Ferrari 456 GT Spyder, a Lamborghini Super Diablo worth $500k, a Jaguar XJ220, a Cadillac Escalade, and a Hummer. Also, he was a proud owner of a Bentley Continental SC that made his wallet light by $720k. Then, there is the story of him purchasing twenty cars from one car dealer. Reportedly, he took five Bentley Azures from this store, costing nearly $1.5 million! Unfortunately, only a little is known about Mike Tyson's current car collection.

All you need to know about Mike Tyson's Tigers and Pigeons
In the 1990s, Tyson brought home three white Royal Bengal Tigers, each costing $70k. Named Kenya, Storm, and Boris, he had an exclusive accommodation facility for the big cats with a caretaker who charged a whooping $125k per annum. At the time of filing for bankruptcy, Tyson still had to pay roughly $8,100 towards their upkeep.

A known pigeon fancier, his love for the birds began in Brooklyn when he was eight or nine. There's a famous legend about Tyson knocking down a guy who killed one of his pigeons. He reportedly broke off from a relationship when he learned about the lady's views on his pigeons! Even today, he pursues the hobby and has over a thousand pigeons.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Movies based on Mike Tyson's life</h2>
For a living legend who has been through some of the steepest ups and downs, it is evident that biopics, both watered-down versions and close to real ones, would appear sooner or later. Then, in 1995, came Uli Edel directed 'Tyson.' Taken from the book Fire and Fear: The Inside Story of Iron Mike Tyson by Jose Torres, actor Michael Jai White played the lead role of Mike Tyson. George C Scott played Cus D'Amato while Paul Winfield Don King.

In 2022, Hulu released the series 'Tyson' based on the former champion's life. The eight-episode series has Trevante Rhodes acting as Mike Tyson. Of course, there have been other productions. But most restricted themselves to a docu-drama format. For instance, Barabara Kopple's 'Fallen Champ: The Untold Story of Mike Tyson,' the 2008 release James Toback's 'Tyson,' and the 2021 release 'Mike Tyson: The Knockout.'
<h2 style="text-align: center">Mike Tyson's comeback</h2>
On November 28, 2020, Mike Tyson staged a comeback of sorts. At the Staples Center in Los Angeles, he faced another legend Roy Jones Jr. The fight ended in a draw, though per Compubox, Tyson managed to land a more significant number of punches. The pay-per-view subscriptions crossed $80 million, more than initially expected.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Mike Tyson's relationship with Muhammad Ali</h2>
Mike Tyson idolized Muhammad Ali. He grew up watching his hero fight some of the era's biggest names. But still, despite his close bonds with 'The Greatest,' Iron Mike never wanted to be like him. Instead, he always found himself resembling the likes of Sonny Liston or Jack Dempsey. Tyson was inconsolable when Ali lost the fight against Larry Holmes on October 2, 1980, at Caesars Palace. He reportedly avenged his hero's defeat eight years later.
