I cringe everytime Mike Tyson interrupts. Shannon is saying some good shit and Mike would interrupt by asking him " who are we". I love Mike Tyson and barely know Shannon Briggs but he a good dude. But Mike gotta stop making it harder for me to watch his podcasts. Recently, he posted a video of him and Shaq doing a socially distanced podcast and he kept interrupting every few seconds which I had to pause the video. I think somethings wrong with me but I respect Mike Tyson. Usually he brings some wisdom into the podcasts but I didn't see shit here.

Shannon was running from his pain! Mike is facing his pain!

[@zeizaze5159]

@@CarringDevil or rather Shannon is free from his past while Mike cant help but bring his past up in every interview still aggressive and fighting his demons while Briggs has gotten over it and moved on to appreciate life, thats acceptance and contentedness, not running. Mike seems like hes always agitated or looking for a fight and something to be emotional and aggressive about, not a good vibe if you ask me. Briggs handled it well by being chilled.

[@CarringDevil]

@@zeizaze5159 I agree with your analysis and assessment of Mike! But I cannot agree in regards to Shannon and here's why - When prompted he denies crying on the podcast which he clearly does. He said numerous times he wanted to come on the show and "chill" and I'm sorry but Shannon is not Sugar Ray Leonard! Your description for Shannon is suited for Sugar Ray not Shannon. Sugar Ray is comfortable with bringing up his past - Shannon is not. He doesn't want to dive too deep or too long on it.

In my opinion: Mike Tyson has elite wisdom. It's not the most important thing about how or why he got there. He adequately understands about enlightenment and it reflects in his honesty. He acknowledges all aspects of his nature (good and bad) and finally understands how to manage them. Everyone can benefit from sitting down and having a genuine conversation with modern Mike. He just has the most captivating way of conveying the knowledge he learned from his extraordinary experience. And he cares enough to elevate humanity.

[@RaikhardWarGod]

Lu B-A didn’t you see Tyson was so much more serious in this interview then in past ones. Now that he’s training to fight an exhibition match he’s starting to act a little more differently. Like 2 or 3 times in this interview Tyson didn’t like Briggs telling him to chill.... briggs told tyson to stop talking about what he was talking about and Tyson told him with a serious face that he wasn’t going to chill because it’s his show and he can talk about what he wants...... Tyson has never had to be that serious with someone and tell them that straight up like that in this podcast. Briggs had mentioned on Instagram that he would love to fight Tyson so I feel that now that Tyson is training for a match, he feels kind of like Briggs is possible competition. Plus Tyson doesn’t joke much and Briggs does so kind of like a personality clash.

[@RaikhardWarGod]

Lu B-A if you see an interview Briggs just did on you tube a couple days ago, he’s saying he wants to fight Tyson, Holyfield, briggs, David haye, and that he would chop em ALL down. He’s been talking about wanting that fight and working on it. No one takes things as personal as Tyson when it comes to when he’s going to fight someone. He sees them as enemy’s and says he wants to eat their children and all of that lol. After the fight it’s all good but before that he wants to rip there head off. I think that’s why you can see Tyson kind of bothered by Shannon’s behavior and hated being told to chill on his own show. Read the comments hundreds noticed it.

Shannon is like Mike's inner pep talk whenever his mind is starting to slip away to that dark place...it made me laugh a lil bit, but great interview

[@n15ahmet]

lol, They compliment each other very well in a podcast setting.

[@kengrand5445]

@@n15ahmet everytime Mike started to reflect into his dark past, Briggs would interupt & try to snap him out of it...I just thought that was funny lol you're right, they suit eachother

[@n15ahmet]

@@kengrand5445I found those moments very profound, Shows the sincerity of Shannon trying to help a friend from their thoughts spiralling out to negativity, When Mike spoke about his parents being sex workers, Shannon almost cried.. because he resonates with what Mike was saying.

[@thegovernor4346]

Shannon would make a real good podcaster he got great energy....

@Mixedhero yup, I think the fact that they both have the place of their upbringing in common, brings them closer together with a mutual respect for each other.

Minus the bad language but I agree as an educator. Much better than the Andrew Tate perspective.. But I assume the weed smoking doesn't look great.

Greatest episode of Hotboxin to date, Mike bared his soul to his fellow Brownsville brother, so much respect for Tysons unflinching honesty, what a beautifully insightful conversation. Briggs and Tyson are true Legends! I'd been wondering when we'd get this interview and it was well worth the wait!

To be honest this whole interview it's basically therapy they're talking about their ups and downs and the things they had to deal with during that time Mike Tyson been through it all and he so humble

[@YaBoyHisoka]

We need a Zab Judah episode. Mike calls him his little brother. The stories Zab & Mike would share would be epic!

46:00 mins, I was waiting for Mike to take the Chill Champ personally as I was myself and then you realize once again you can never take anything personal. It’s not about us. Chill champ for Shannon meant Mike was tugging on his emotions and bringing up his personal demons he tries to forget. I feel this.
