What have they done to Mike Tyson?

[ThaRealness]

All I know about Mike is he's out here solving mysteries

 

[Just like bruddas]

He's happy :ahhh: I love this man to infinity, let him rock

 

[WOAHMYGOODNESS]

Mike is 50 years old. The shyt hes doing isn't FUN for a 50 year old. That shyt is fun maybe for 8-10 year olds. Any 50 year old that has re-live the shyt he missed out on as a 8 year is sick as fukk. The nerve of you to act like this shyt is normal.

Most adults take their kids on vacation, water park, amusement park, ride go karts etc to do some shyt to relive their child hood. These c00ns are trying to say "wearing spandex and popping your booty hole on national broadcast is "having fun"

Are u 50 years old?
Ysll coli c00ns think arguing about c00ns and other stupid shyt is fun...im done with the coli this year shyt is a warped existence of a cesspool

According to OP a black man is not supposed to dance and have fun. He has to be serious all the time. If you're having too much fun then you're a c00n.

 

[Versa]

Call a black man c00ning it up for white folks "smoothening out the edges with age" and "just having fun" brehs.

I'm all for Mike Tyson being in a better place spiritually and not threatening to eat children. I'm not for him tap dancing though. It's sad in a different way than his old persona.

 

[ridedolo]

He's in a better place mentally now and has some stability. Let him live. He's still a legend regardless of what he does.

nah bruh certain things are not acceptable as a grown man. i cannot cosign this shyt. i could never imagine my father doing any type of this shyt. nahhhhh.

 

[Woodrow]

I prefer this to him fukking up his life with charges and shyt.

"only in america could you find a way to earn a healthy buck, and still keep your attitude on self-destruct."

props to mike for growing up out of that bullshyt. regardless of what anyone on this board thinks, dude seems happy.

You think Mike went soft?

Maybe you should try him

i'm pretty sure i'd pay one of these coli gangstas to run up on mike with that c00n shyt. just so i could watch him separate their jaw from the rest of their face.

 

[puppetmaster]

There's some things he does that make me cringe. Yes. You have to take the good with the bad on people unfortunately. Especially as they get older. I can't impose my ideals, wishes and hopes on him any more than he could on me. His image and name are $$$ and he's using them.


I'm just happy to see that brother alive, happy healthy and almost 50 years old. You can't put price tags on peace

There was a good stretch in the late 90's early 2000's where you almost expected Mike to end up another one of those mythical "unsolvable hip-hop related murders" that kept happening.

Shyt when he first stopped boxing and ballooned up in body weight you even worried for a moment, would boredom lead him down a rabbit hole he won't emerge from this time?

Yes, he's very much softened his edges and with it there are certain types of people finally comfortable laughing AT him instead of with him, I'm not gonna let any of that shade how I view him tho.

 

[plushcarpet]

it's 2016

you simply can't act/be hard on TV anymore, at all, not even a little bit

 

[Miggs]

I wish i had control over Mike Tyson's life too. Seriously though if he just stopped doing what he chooses and do what I say my life would be better. I know it. Everything would be better. Because this is a real important problem for me

He made one of the most unlikely come backs in American sports/entertainment history. He went from being one of the most dynamic and loved athletes to one of the most despised (perhaps THEE most despised) athletes in American history, transitioned from being known as a savage with a rape charge who bit Holyfield's ear to now being a lovable teddy bear type getting paid to do comedy.

Is he making a fool of himself? Absolutely, but fukk it just about every comedian and actor/actress in the world does. His turnaround should be celebrated not mocked.

He's making more money than 95% of the world to act a fool on stage and on screen. His other options would've been slowly falling into squalor and despair, or swallowing his pride to go work a bullshyt job making pennies compared to what his true earning potential is and what it once was.

Anyone looking down on Tyson needs to break free from the mentality that says someone who was once a street dude/savage needs to always be a savage or they sold out and are shucking and jiving for the camera. Straight up, salute to Tyson for coming back from what seemed like the point of no return and becoming an American staple again, beloved again but for being an entirely different person.

Mike said it himself, half the shyt he does, he does because he needs the money.
He is probably never going to pay off his debts, but he has to keep working to keep his home.
His wife is pretty good with the money and has him working his ass off to stay a public figure, but we know what it is.

You're 100% correct, but Imma say this, there's a WHOLE LOTTA black folk who LOVE seeing blacks (especially males) buck dance and play the fool in an entertainment context. Quick story:

I started working at a school in Manhattan in 2006, all ages, all special needs, mostly black & hispanic kids. 2006, if you recall, was the year the chicken noodle soup song & dance dropped. First time I saw the kids do that slave jig I was absolutely . Even more appalling was the reaction from other black teachers (mostly female) hooting, hollering, and giving props to this, Imma say it again, obvious slave jig. How the fukk can black "educators" watch this sh1t and not understand the oppresive undertones of our children c00n-dancing?

That's when I finally threw my hands up in believing: 1) teachers are smarter members of the community, & 2) we hold it as a serious duty to empower each other.

Chain Hang Low also dropped that year... adding even more c00nery to the situation ... and the only thing black colleagues could do was

So kids creating a dance and having fun is "c00nish" behavior?

I swear any black person that smiles or enjoys anything is a "c00n" to you dudes
