He may be a troubled guy with a screwed up past, but I'll give the guy props for trying his hardest to turn his life around. I'm not a Mike Tyson fan nor am I a detractor, but I'll give credit where credit is due and I hope that he can change his life around for the better, as he's become a really fascinating individual.

Hopefully he can get through his problems. He is probably my favorite boxer of all time. I watched the bout where hands Michael Spinks his ass not too long ago actually.

If the things Ive heard about him are true I hope he dies a very bad death. If those things are not true or hyperbole then I hope he can turn it around.

I don't know what you're referring to specifically, but Tyson acknowledges many mistakes and has many regrets. I find that refreshing compared to somebody like Chris Brown who has shown no remorse for any of his crimes and even seems to think he's worthy of our sympathy because he has "haters". |

The things Ive heard involve children and I have zero forgiveness for that. Ever. |

Where on Earth did ya hear bout Tyson and kids? Curious to know this, as well. I'm not going to claim the guy is perfect, as obviously he's f***ed up a lot in his life, but that's a wee bit far-fetched for me. |

Just surprised me as that's literally the first time I'd ever heard even an allusion to something like that. Hell I googled it thinking I'd missed some rumor or something. |

Mike Tyson is one of the most fascinating athletes of all time. Hopefully he can turn it around.
I'm not even going to give whatever rumors are being talked about the time of day without serious sources. Sounds like BS to me.

I listened to a podcast he did with Adam Carolla where he was very open and sounded so hurt by all the self-inflicted damage he's caused. If he really is still battling, that sucks.

I don't really know how I feel about him. He's ruined the lives of many people and even though he's made efforts to become a better person, I really don't think he's redeemed himself and I can't help but feel his "efforts" are mostly for show, but either way even assuming I'm right I still don't wish such a slow and painful death even on someone like him, so hopefully he manages to get better.
