According to TMZ:
Mike Tyson seemed to lose his cool on a plane on Wednesday night … repeatedly punching a man in the face after the guy had apparently annoyed him.
TMZ Sports has learned … the incident all went down at around 10:30 PM PT as Tyson was slated to fly out of San Francisco International Airport to Florida.
A witness on the plane says as he and his friend were boarding Tyson’s flight … the boxing legend was initially cool with them and the other passengers.
The witness tells us Mike took a selfie with him … and then was patient with his overly excited buddy, who kept trying to talk to the 55-year-old fighter as he sat behind him.
Eventually, though, we’re told Tyson had enough of the guy behind him talking in his ear … and told him to chill. When the guy didn’t, that’s when the witness says Tyson started to throw several punches at the man’s face.
At least they didn’t have to wear face masks.

I sort of sympathize with Iron Mike here. The guy has the humility to travel on a normal flight, and the other guy is badgering him.
Yes indeed, it’s what happens when you get in someone’s face – I have no sympathy for the victim – he asked for it. I hope he learned his lesson.
It isn’t as if he didn’t know what Tyson might do is it?
Quite Ghost, we are always on the same page 🙂
Too bad the guy still has both ears…
oops, scrolling down I see some other ear comments.
It’s like these fuckers (which is about 99% of Americans) saying “Are we supposed to just LET Russia invade another country?” (herp derp) – as though we – the United States – have the ability or moral authority to stop all “evil” in the world. And of course they know nothing about how the US has been instigating Russia to attack Ukraine for at least 10 years. So yeah, Iron Mike shouldn’t beat on punks just for being annoying. And Putler shouldn’t have invaded Ukraine. Theoretically. But fuck this punk and fuck Ukraine, too. Mess with the bull, you get the horns.
I’m thinking the idiot wanted it to happen as he sees a payday down the road.
One thing the US of A is well known for… litigation heaven… everybody sues everyone hoping for that jackpot win… Its to the point where labels have to be applied to EVERYTHING…
There is an over abundance of labels to CYA liabilities…
Guess they’ll have to put warnings on the backs of airplane seats… Do Not Annoy Other Passengers. They May Punch You…
And, yet, where were the warning labels on Tide Pods?
😉
Where do you think the idiots got the idea to eat the pods?
You don’t think they came up with that crap of their own volition now, do you???
WARNING: DO NOT EAT.
Say… I have an idea!!!
American kids are too stupid, lazy and unmotivated to come up with their own bad ideas. Thus, YouTube and Instagram.
I’m with Mike on this one, the fool deserved it.
So we TBPers are all agreed then. Great, I am in the right company.
I wish I was the judge at the civil proceedings which are sure to follow.
…Did Mike rain hammers on your face, asshole? Yeah? Whatever he did to you wasn’t bad enough. Now get the fuck out of my courtroom!!!…
Auntie loves consequentiality. For every action there is (usually) a reaction.
Anyone who continually pesters any professional fighter or martial artist, let alone a champion, is certainly an imbecile.
Mike was too kind to not re-arrange that guy’s nose.
I’m sure Iron Mike heard the guy say The Magic Word that excuses all bad behavior.
There’s actually a common sense lesson there. Don’t use that word around Big Angry Leroy and then complain that his bad behavior being excused isn’t “fair”. Life isn’t fair.
Must be of the”no self-control”generation.You know,the ones that were never disciplined as children,who go walking around thinkIng they can do whatever to whomever and whenever……wonder if he learned his lesson?,no probably not……..
Mike has two legacies.
1 -Biting off ears
2- Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face.
This guy is lucky he’s still breathing.. Mike should of throat punched him and took him out. Then claim “waysism”.
It’s pay day now. Cha-Ching
The guy is lucky he didn’t get an ear bitten off.
Mike Tyson may be past his professional fighting days, but he still has the skills. Here he is training in 2020:
You’d have to be crazy, stupid or drunk to provoke a man like that, and it looks like the fellow on the plane was indeed provoking Tyson.
The guy deservedly gets his face bashed in and in the process picks up a winning Judicial Jackpot Lottery ticket.
to be determined. Big Mike could request a jury trial. Depending upon the venue, he could get off scot-free. Even some white juries might side with Tyson against someone who was angling for a payday.
Imagine the bragging rights when the guy gets to tell his workmates that his black eye is from Tyson.
And his buddy will vouch.
Not everybody gets to claim that Tyson cleaned their clock.
Deliberate?
That’s just what I thought–bragging (stupidity) rights plus a possible lotto ticket.
Poor soul, tyson. Raised and trained as an animal, provided select female encounters to really wrack/wreck his psyche.
Should have been in first class at least. Money always talks.
More staged B.S.
Totally set up.
Sadly for Iron Mike — but as a former professional boxer, those blows could end up being construed — and charged as — ADW … assault with a deadly weapon. Those hands of professional fighters are considered such … not sure how it works for ‘former’ world champion boxers …
“Overly excited” passenger !
Betcha a nickel the jackoff was a democrat .
All democrats worship celebs.
Justifiable beating in my book.
He should have popped the other mealy mouthed democrat too !
For some reason made me think of this.
More fakery like the Will Smith bullshit. Is Tyson in federal custody? Because no one would walk away from battery on a flight.
at least he still has two ears
Fuckin hilarious. Go Mike, go!
I only have to tell the mrs. twice.
The stupid virus knows no season. It is eternal.
