If someone sexually assaulted a female in your family (niece), how would you react?. Admirable restraint was shown by Teddy as he'd be in jail now had he pulled the trigger. Mike definitely touched her up, you can see him trying to manipulate the interviewer by saying how do you know? You don't pull a gun on someone because they're better than you in the gym & Cus did choose Mike over Teddy as Cus knew he had a gold mine in Mike. Just a shame he never lived long enough to cash in.

This guy did one of the best interviews I've ever seen with Tyson. People have ask him allot of this stuff before over the years, but I've not seen anyone ask all these questions in one sit down. Mostly Mike looked calm and not irritated by all the questions, which I think the interviewer gets credit for creating that atmosphere. But either way, it can't be easy sitting there asking personal questions and watching Tyson get emotional, there would always be a sense of what if I'm the guy Mike flips out on. Lol, not a fun thought. Still wondering if anyone will ever get Mike to talk about his rape conviction. That would be the interview of all time.

[@stevens1-o7s]

First time I've heard Mike Tyson say a different story too, I heard the Teddy Atlas story and I assumed it was a true since Tyson did have a past of being really into girls and he was 15 at the time, but I could see Teddy doing Mikes version of the story too, and Tyson didn't look like he was lying

[@Yzjoshuwave]

This interview is excellent, but I do feel I can relate to what Mike was saying at the end of this clip about not being the person that they're trying to interview anymore. On the other hand, I feel a kind of admiration for this mildly nervous, but extremely honest and authentic person that Mike has become. It's got to be tough to talk to people so much about the person that he used to be when they don't ever seem to get around to the question of who he is now.

Mike speaks in symbols and metaphors better than anyone. He is a savant IMO. I don't know exactly what his brilliance is, but it is there. No one, besides maybe OJ Simpson, has had a more acute fall from grace in our recent history. I think part of his brilliance is his ability to reflect on his most damaging self-induced problems, actually learn and gain wisdom from these issues, and then to be able to articulate it in a way that most people can digest it

[@petertyrell9699]

Deep down he right. I don't know why so many people feel on edge with him. He is a real dude and he shows it. People label people too much.

[@TotallyRadical]

So if you're Graham, do you 💩💩💩 your pants @2:30 when Tyson gets upset at the Atlas stuff?? I think we all know the answer 🤣🤣🤣💩

[@bobbyp2851]

The greatest Heavyweight Champion of all time! Great interview! I wish it was all in one video thou...

[@jakethetool698]

Of all the endless captivating clips of Iton Mike, my favorite is when he’s discussing the gun being pulled on him. “He pulled a gun on me, but didn’t even shoot me. God knows, if I had pulled a gun on him..” Doesn’t sound like he’s boasting. Sounds like he’s mature enough to be painfully aware of what would’ve happened, had he pulled the gun.

[@AD45555]

“Something with my face irritates people sometimes” I felt that cuz I feel that way often

[@nazzan3801]

“If I pulled one on him God knows that pullet is not going in the air” that straight up gangster shittt.. and shows who’s really telling the truth.. respect to the iron Mike ✊🏼

[@jackvarley1000]

wow that interviewer doesnt seem to know how to be a normal human hahaha wtf

[@GrahamBensinger]

+jack varley why?

[@jackvarley1000]

Graham Bensinger The questions are somewhat exceptable even if you are pushing it, with someone who is trying to be as honest and raw with you.... and the way you came across on a few of the questions needs a little tweak, the delivery is key to the response.... be more down to earth, not coming across like a privately educated school boy as much when talking to someone who couldnt be anymore opposite.

[@DeadlyVerge]

Sympathize with the person you're interviewing. When you ask a loaded question and receive a deep heartfelt answer, don't then automatically move onto the next question like a production robot. Sympathize and connect with the person, and simply encourage them to keep opening up. You'll be connecting with the audience at the same time.

[@urmaker]

Exactly what I was thinking. There were some great opportunities to just jump in and reply like a normal person. Like the statement he started with Graham's name. It would have been awesome to get in a more comfortable position that is less interview-y and reply, "Mike, I am not trying to push buttons or look for the dirt and glitz. I am here to talk to you and let people know a little about the heavyweight champ from his point of view. We all have skeletons in our closets.". I could add more to that but to me, that is kind of what I expected. I think he was just nervous. Seemed like he was trying to word things too carefully after Mike got a little defensive. Just missed that little touch of showing him you are talking to him like a friend getting to know someone and not just doing an interview. Regardless, much more of a respectful interview than I think Mike has had. I can't blame him for getting a little uppity about some things. He is used to being on guard all the time with media. I can't say I blame him at all. I can only imagine what he has gone through with reporters and whatnot.

No one seems to be allowed to talk about his rape of a 108 pound,18 year old. Women are never believed. Even when on the rare occasion (less than 5% of the time in UK) the accused is convicted. As nice as Tyson has become, he has never apologised to the kid he destroyed. He still denies it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3KbdYellM1goZI

Maybe he’s innocent and was just some chick playing victim For money. Not an uncommon accusation when famous and loaded

[@kayakonicKayakonic]

Idk why people like Tyson is a loose canon. He really comes off as collected and calm, in this interview. Tyson is very blatant and honest, though. Tyson even says, "I'm not iron Mike, anymore" meaning, he has changed as a person. Idk why people don't see that.

[@sonnydortmund1513]

Everything about this video sucks from the title "my abusive relationships with women" to the incessant asking about things in mike's he's ashamed of and wants to move on from. Mike is right when he says the guy wants to believe he's a bad guy. It's sad how demonised Mike is

Teddy's a great trainer but remember he needed a fire arm mike would mess him up with his human body that makes a man a man Mike's the Gladiator not a excuse using teddy Mike's a true Beautifully molded man I think your lucky mike let you slide buddy as he was pissed at you for the past you bring up as far as the interview's grant inside he wants to RIP your head off and hang it on a mantel but he keeps choking on his self cause you wont let a abused man live for likes and views you would sell your self out how did you get to be that person I'm seriously curious

[@MrMillo-ng9ht]

The energy Tyson has is incredible. He makes you shiver in your voice if you disagree with him, or if he feels that you are trying to blackmail him. Great personality, and sometimes misunderstood. He's tired of talking about the past and all the things he did. Let him live, he tries to be a good man by listening to how he speaks about things.

[@shadowwalker3204]

Despite his past look into his eyes, Mike inside is a timid and innocent soul. He's a great man and very humble man. I'd put him up next to Keanu Reeves when it comes to how bright a person can shine.

[@camq-py7bs]

Lmaoo Graham - “he said he put a gun to you” Tyson - “ where did you hear that? How do you know that’s true?” Graham - “oh this is what teddy said.” Tyson - “okay that’s not true. Okay he did put a gun to my head but....” Lmao 😂😂

[@yojerico5856]

One thing I will say about Mike in all his interviews is he is honest about stuff that went on and fair play to him he had a raw deal from the very start all that money no genuine people around him to support him and advise him on how to invest it.

[@fatalsg92]

the anxiety from watching this interview still gets to me.

[@FreedomEveryWay]

Embrace your past, Mike. Nothing to be ashamed about, all was perfectly into place to make you the person you are now.

[@evolution031680]

Graham: Trainer Teddy Atlas...ended up holding a loaded gun to your head... Mike: That’s not true. How do you know if that’s true or not? Graham: Oh, no, okay, that-that’s what he had said (shitting pants). Mike: That’s not true...Teddy did do that.😂 Mike is nucking futs.😂

[@anthonyl333]

Its amazing how money and messed up people can screw a person’s life but its a true testament that he fixed his life and now he is a father and realized the important things in life.. Good Luck Mike you deserve it….

[@christianboddum8783]

Graham, you look Mike straight in the eyes and that's a huge plus for you. this is a potentially tense situation, but you are direct and honest in you behaviour, and I'm sure Mike picks up on this and let's you continue. You seem very sincere and kind, and courageous at the same time. Good job, you've got class!
