Sunday, June 12 Mike Tyson Super Loser of the World
He seems to me to be in many ways Tyson is the typical bully I just don’t have much pity or respect for Mike Tyson and really how could I… Lets take a look at the wonder boy's career that ended with him getting whooped by the big Irish boy Kevin McBride. Okay he started out bad was a bit of a juvenile delinquent, stealing purses and ultimately getting sent to a reform school Amazingly while at the reform school….he comes to the attention of a boxing instructor…who takes him under his wing..and voila its like an ABC after school special…with Tyson winning his first major fight and going on a year and a half later to knocking out Trevor Berbick and becoming at 20 years old the youngest WBC heavyweight champ ever.. A few months later Tyson whoops James Smith too and becomes the WBA heavyweight champ too.. At this point Iron Mike and his EGO are on the top of the world…so naturally that’s when the shit hits the fan…he is charged with a misdemeanor assault on a parking attendant but pays his way out of it.. Then he marries the queen of mean actress Robin Givens who mortifies him on national television by telling the world he is manic depressive and she is afraid of him…amazingly that marriage ends in divorce shortly after the police are called in to stop him from throwing furniture out the window..guess that wasn't a good sign I think having his ass kicked by Buster Douglas was the real down turn point for Mike…it didn’t seem like he was ever the same after that..he lost his title Yep…king of the world could have any girl he wants Tysons comeback is nailed short when he loses to Evander Holyfield . Oh it’s a blur of crapola after that. He was sentenced to two.. two-year sentences for assaulting two motorists after a minor accident. He gets released from jail and goes back to the ring where he Not surprisingly his second marriage goes to the divorce lawyers. Then Mikey throws a punch at a Lewis bodyguard and winds up being denied a boxing license by the Nevada State Athletic Commission. Lewis has the real last laugh when he knocks out Mikey in the eighth round of their heavyweight title bout. Mikey gets arrested after fighting with two men and is charged with assault and disorderly conduct. In 2003 Mikey announces that he has filed for Chapter 11 protection in U.S. Bankruptcy Court, claiming he has squandered nearly $300 million through lavish spending and bad advice. Then he is 86’d in the fourth round by British heavyweight Danny Williams in the summer of 2004 and in the summer of 2005 he is 86’d by the big Irish boy Kevin McBride. Tyson says his heart isn’t in it anymore and he’s retiring. Poor mikey! Well Mikey…seems to me You were given a chance to have it all Here’s hoping the next young boy who is taken under the wing by a caring mentor and rises to the top has a whole lot more respect for the responsibility of greatness. Greatness is a crown that should be worn with decency, not throw into the face of anyone smaller then yourself. Mike Tyson…you’re a typical bully….all steam but the second someone stands up to you, you show yourself to be a true loser.. If you want to change your image this time That would be a nice start..
