In a decade or 2 people will be asking Ariel what was it like to interview Mike Tyson. As an fight interviewer once you’ve interviewed Mike Tyson how does it get any better than that.

Шайтаны болели за Роя поэтому связывали руки МАЙКУ чтобы он не отправил в космос Роя. Удары в голову приходили и останавливались легкими ударами. Тайсон отправит в космос этого Роя.

I’m glad everyone loves Mike but growing up with a Mike Tyson for a bigger brother was not fun! I mean my brother is built like him and has the same temperament as young MT. I’m still seeking therapy even though it’s been years and I live in a completely different state but still have nightmares of him being here beating the pulp out of me! It’s good he’s turned his life around but glorifying the fear and intimidation he’s created is something even he’s not proud of. That’s because it’s violence and once committed no matter for what reason it’s sticks with you just as much the victim trauma sticks with them.

Everytime mike tyson answers "I don't know" he isn't trying to brush off the question. You can tell hes thought about it, and legitimately doesn't know the answer himself.

I typically dont like Ariel.......hes got some unpleasant female traits.........he can be spiteful manipulative and provocative like a woman, but he didnt do any of that in this interview.

Man. Mike Tyson has grown into such a beautiful human being. So happy for him
Måned sidencallum Roberts
I just think he's great. So calm too, I am yet to see an interview where someone doesn't bring up about "the old Mike tyson" I would have exploded being asked every interview about who I use to be instead of who I am now

Love the respect Tyson is getting! It really gives me a kick!! Here we have a guy who's cards are stacked against him because of the color of his skin, yet he not only prevails, but annihilates the white supremacy pictures so many keep in their heads and asserts himself as the physically strongest man on Earth. A black icon is born!! And now, decades later, and with Tyson being the business man that he is, we also know for certain that his mind is equally blessed. His business ventures beyond prosper, and we wish him well :)

Seeing all these comments, and seeing how everyone understands and appreciates mike just gives me hope for humanity. It’s good to see that people understand the wisdom that mike speaks.

GREAT INTERVIEW! Some of y’all should show respect! The man on the right, Mike Tyson, was once the baddest man on the planet who feared no one. Read his story, watch the old videos, then come back and comment! BTW, right now today, you do not want to get anywhere close to a ring w this man.

I think Mike loves the pigeons because they always come back.

I get the feeling that if Ariel kept pushing certain topics he would be very happy this is not a face to face interview.
Måned sidenHegilian
The idea of doing something difficult for the benefit of someone other than yourself, or your own family, is foreign to Ariel. Every time Mike alluded to him giving back to humanity, by helping those who need help the most; Ariel was like "What do you mean? What are you talking about?". The culture Ariel comes from doesn't understand what Mike is feeling, and the Holy Spirit of Wisdom that is motivating him. His grass roots charity isn't some scam to ultimately take advantage of people. He genuinely wants to help make a righteous and positive change in the lives of those who are being downtrodden by your people, for his own personal atonement to The MOST HIGH.

Ariel sounds like a psychologist interviewing his patient. Ariel: "After you left the ring over 15 years ago and I told you would fight again would you believe me?" Tyson: "Not in a million years, no." Ariel: "Who was that guy back then?"

What a great interview!!..Mike is such a fascinating guy,he seems to feel a lot of guilt about the past and tries hard to forget it,but it still haunts him to some extent.. it's so good to see him become the man he is today,he obviously has become pretty deep into philosophy and is striving for peace in his own mind and life.. I'm not religious,more spiritual in my way of thinking about life (if that makes sense lol) and I hope both Tyson and Jones come out of this fight healthy and with no lasting damage...two legends of boxing!.
