Mike Tyson is a boxing historian nerd.

He has tattoos of Chairman Mao and Che Guevara

He has that famous rant likening himself to Genghis Khan and Alexander the Great

Strange take coming from him




Those dudes were leaders who changed the fates of nations. He is just a boxer.


Even then, the changes the world moved on from what GK & ATG left behind eventually, same will happen to Mao & Che.

It’s not really a strange take. Mike calls himself a piece of shyt all the time, especially on his podcast. He’s aware that shyt he isn’t proud of (his history of domestic abuse, being a convicted rapist/registered sex offender, drug addiction) is part of his legacy too. He just doesn’t think highly of himself overall and doesn’t want to be thought of as a “great” person.

He rode elephants into cartilage.

In the clip, he rejected the concept of legacy itself. He made no qualifications based one's occupation nor one's personal behavior or chracter.
