âThe truth is gonna set you free. But first itâs gonna make you miserable.â - Mike Tyson
This is too real
đŻ
Profound.
The truth will set you free - JESUS CHRIST *
@@scottmalcolm1974 Jesus only tells half the story. Mike Tyson gives the full unedited version
You can tell Michael really genuinely likes Tyson. He really respects him.
@Johnny Caruthers man who tf cares bruh
Idiotic take. Love or hate Biden but Kamala ainât done shit. Worthless vp so far. Not as bad as Pence but then again Trump sucked a mob on one of the most loyal vps of all time. Winning! Lol Trumpers are insanely pathetic.
*sicked a mob.
No one other...he had his ups and downs like Our Host....but still comes out swinging, Another sit down is in order please!!...đ€©
@Johnny Caruthers it made sense to anyone who isnt an idiot
This is by far the happiest Mike interview I've watched. Insightful đŻ
Most of his sit downs now are humble. He really is at peace with himself.
You should see him when he's smoking and eating shrooms. He's like a giant teddy bear
Your view of happiness is subjective. Someoneâs content is never someoneâs happiness.
Might be because of the mutual admiration
U don't realize how smart mike is ,until u see episodes like this,its beautiful!
This will go down as one of Michael's best sitdowns ever.
Yes, I could tell Michael you were hesitant at first to admit you too were a Trump supporter and in this climate I canât really blame you and I appreciate that you did, that spoke volumes imo.

According to George Foreman Joe Louis was seldom off-balance, was actively aggressive, used proper punches, had the best ratio of power and technique for a heavyweight boxer, was the best at using combinations, and was the best at knocking people out. A combination of these attributes makes him the greatest heavyweight boxer. According to George Foreman Muhammad Ali was the greatest man who was a heavyweight boxer. Foreman says Floyd Mayweather constantly improves, and he also praises Mike Tyson as someone who could have been second greatest after Joe Louis if he had more control. I respect George Foreman's opinion because he is a boxing analyst, and for his ability to withstand wear and damage over the long haul. I am an outlaw who learned to fight in the streets, although I was also formally trained in boxing. I don't think that Joe Louis could be an outlaw and a heavyweight champion of the world for 12 years at the same time. I think most people would agree that World War II was not as pointless as the Vietnam War. Joe Louis's character traits that I respect is that he didn't brag or gloat and he didn't insult and respected his foes. He didn't have to be obnoxious, troll or lie, because he was a better boxer than Ali, Joe Frazier and George Foreman, so he didn't need to be a showman. As someone who is trying to improve his hand-to-hand combat skills, I am not interested in extravagant publicity. I am interested in actual ability. This is where Joe Louis delivers. I respect Ali for his backbone, activism and innovation. Bruce Lee was not the greatest martial artist. Muhammad Ali was not the greatest boxer. This doesn't diminish them as pioneers, on whose shoulders we stand as a new generation of innovators! But to learn to fight effectively we must turn to true professionals like Louis.

If you watch Mike and listen to him you realize what a genuine person he is. Man has been in struggles his whole life but has kept fighting and is in a great place now. Much respect to Iron Mike
I went from 13 and thinking he was exciting to 17 and think he is a pos to 45 and I admire him more than anyone I can think of.
He experienced a very wide spectrum of things and has developed a wisdom most people lack
Mike is like fine fine wine. Heâs gotten better with time. I always liked him but heâs just so genuine about himself and he doesnât hide from a detail from his life. In a world where we are lied to so often itâs almost uncomfortable to hear someone speak so honestly. That friction works on the conscience.
I wish I had the balls to be as humble as Mike. He is an inspiration to aspire to given where he has been in his life.
You are who you choose to be. If you're not as humble, it's because you choose not to be.
Amenâ€
Iâm going to start using this line.
âI want to be UP more than anyone wants me DOWN.â - Tyson
The things that make Tyson so interesting and great: He's this street guy, who talks like one, and is tough and scary, but when you cut through that, he's very smart, self-aware, self-effacing, and he just lets his thoughts flow so honestly. Great, great, guy. And Franzese and Tyson are so great together.
And you can really see that the guy has a real heart of gold under there as well. He just can't stand people who aren't straight. Probably huge animal lover (animals are straight and honest, they don't play games with you) and for those who have really earned his trust, he does anything he can to help em with real problems. I love guys like that, they're a dying breed. though. And once again, Michael is does great job. He's such an intelligent likeable guy.
@Johnny Caruthers WTF?
Couldnât have said it better myself!
@Johnny Caruthers lay of the pcp bro
@Johnny Caruthers bot
I loved Mike as a boxer. I loved his movie roles. But as a person I can see the hurt, and wisdom Mike has gained through his amazing life experiences and travels.
I would love to talk with him some day.
I love Tyson and Franzese together. Informative, honest, great history/stories and no sense of bullshit. Could not stop watching until the endâŠ.Tom as well!! Thanks Mr. Franzese and Mr. Tyson, great, great episode. Please do more.
Itâs hard for young people to appreciate the ups and downs of Tysons career. Up until his loss to buster Douglas, Tyson was literally on a pedestal higher than Michael Jordan. I was DEVASTATED after that fight..⊠I didnât even wanna go to school that Monday⊠then, in the late 90s, he was probably the most hated person in sports.
now he is once again one of the most well liked and respected person in sports again. Actually quite amazing. Iâm glad he has come full circle back to a champion at life
Tyson got robbed he beat Douglas but the ref was way to slow with the count
@@kinazz19 preaching to the choir. I spent two days crying to my dad that the ref cheatedâŠ. And he did slow count it for sure
Tyson said taking cocaine and partying with prostitutes instead of training is the reason Buster Douglas knocked him out
@@onwardupward9392 Yes, Mike lost the hunger to be the best. It's hard to remain at the top without having intense passion for what you do. He seemed rather bored while entering the ring against James "Buster" Douglas. He even completely ignored a Joe Louis championship belt ceremony that the Japanese press were holding for him right before the fight was scheduled to begin.
After all of these years, no one has ever asked Mike why he chose to do that, surprisingly enough! It likely came across as extremely disrespectful, so maybe he paid the price afterwards in that fight in a karmacal kind of way. Whatever the case, his opponent possessed the required hunger to be the best during that fateful fight. "Buster" bounced to the ring with plenty of life and purpose, he was on a mission, wanting to make his mother proud.
The knockdown in the 8th Round definitely shook his confidence, as Douglas tended to give up when things did not go his way, despite not being noticeably damaged by Tyson's uppercut. He quickly pounded the canvas in disappointment, signalling that he was alert, rather than hurt.
While Douglas stayed "flat on his ass" against Evander Holyfield in his next fight, Douglas forced himself to get up against Tyson. Had referee Octavio Meyran counted normally, he would have still gotten up accordingly before the count of 10. There was WAY too much riding on the line here with the death of his mother and all, to stay down for the count. The Douglas corner deserves credit for snapping him out of that trance, as they could be heard screaming at him to get back to his feet.
Mike's major mistake is that he didn't fight with desperation from the start, he only fought back like a champion when he was already well behind and needed a miracle to win. Actually, two of the judges rigged their scorecards, so Tyson was still on pace for a draw at the very least. One of his eyes was swollen shut and his corner/"Team Tyson" was to blame for not bringing an endswell to this particular fight, arrogantly believing that their man was invincible.
At the end of the day, everyone is human. The choices that we make ultimately impact the outcome from one day to the next, as this fight so brutally demonstrates.
While "Buster" may have had the hunger to beat Mike this time, he proceeded to replace it with physical hunger for food from that point on.
On the other hand, Mike got some of the fight hunger back to prove that the "Real Mike Tyson" was still alive and well, until he unfortunately got the bite hunger for Evander Holyfield.
To be fair, "The Real Deal" treated Mike like absolute shit in both fights, stepping on his toes, low blowing him before the "balance shot" trip knockdown in Round 6 and infamously using his head as a weapon (Lennox Lewis and Hasim Rahman also confirm that Evander did the same to them, especially evidenced by the Golf ball-like bump that developed on Rahman's Fore!head).
The only way that Mike could have overcame such an opponent would have been to focus on body shots to wear him down like a pair of puffed up purple MC Hammer genie pants, rather than head shots.
It probably didn't help matters that Tyson landed a flush opening head shot on Holyfield's chin during their first bout, as it made him think that he could continue landing those shots from start to finish. Instead, it got Evander's attention and he knew what to expect in terms of Tyson's style from that point onward.
Mike had a moment of brilliance in Round 5, when he used his trademark hook to the body to first stun Evander and then followed up immediately with an uppercut to the head, but instead of rinsing and repeating his killer combo all night long, he went head hunting all over again, which allowed Holyfield to duck underneath those predictable high punches and come back up with his head right in Tyson's face, which eventually caused Mike to snap during the rematch.
Most people hated Mike at that point for biting Holyfield's ears twice and it would take him a while to regain the same level of popularity as before. However, Mike got the last laugh, as it made him even more famous and fascinating to the media and public alike, go figure!
Anyway, I'm proud of Mike Tyson for continuing to make a name for himself, win or lose. While guys like Douglas, Holyfield and Lewis beat him in the ring, they will never come close to the overall impact that he has had on boxing and people's lives in general. Mike's influence is unbeatable, as is his fighting spirit. Keep it up and NEVER give up!
@@DTysonator
Cheers mate
I laughed at his honesty, he is so straight forward and truly being himself. It is amazing.
Mike best quote ever "people are like monkeys the higher they get in the tree the more they show there ass"so true! Loved this guy threw it all fom 83 till now still a champion
Love both these guys. Totally genuine and obviously great men who have been through a world of crap and both of them came out on top.
I just got the chills reading your comment. Mike Tyson did. And at different times throughout the years horribly unfairly.
I swear Mike is the GOAT! Fcking hilarious and a dangerous, wise & good hearted human đđ life is amazing, enjoy the ride!
Fan boi alert
Great video...who
Great video but Iâm not sure about a goat. Like are you forgetting the families heâs probably ruined like wtf lol.
Apart from the rapist bit..
@Reza norozi?? Huh ? If you are gonna attempt to insult someone you should probably be able to string a coherent sentance together first eh..?
These sit downs are true gems for anyone looking for valuable life lessons! A pleasure to watch!
Yes, very true. A gem indeed!
Love em all!
Mike is hugely inspiring to me personally. My personal situation is bleak in that I am dying of a degenerative disease that is super painfulâŠIâm still not old really and I have young kids so I have everything to fight for, but itâs really tough. I STILL am working to provide for my family despite dying and I am in a rough fight everyday to just do the right thing. My mental health takes a battering too as the pain is off the chart, my legs donât really work too good and I keep pissing my pants. I find Mikes attitude to life and how much he has changed really inspiring me to keep fighting. I love the man. He isnât a warrior to me because of his boxing, he is a warrior to me with how equally vulnerable he is and how honest he is with himself. He is an ambassador for change.
Absolutely. He has turned it all around for himself and has been a guiding light for so many. I'm sorry to hear about your problems and pains, that is brutal. I just hope you keep fighting and working for what you want. Have a good day man!
Get well soon
Brother I am in also too much pain but keto diet ,no sugar and little bit of pranayaamas (yoga) restored atleast 50% power backâŠtry man i believe you can reverse and heal!!!!
I'm so sorry you're going through this pain. â€ïžđ
I don't know if this will help brother but try and learn as hard as it maybe be to to celebrate gratitude and thankfulness. And every day continue to believe for the better. Godbless you and may God bring you peace of mind đ
Probably, Mike Tyson's best interview where he really opens up
For sure you didnt watch any before
Love this ..Tyson always keeps it real and thats why he gets so emotional when talking about "real talk" Mike we love you champ!!! Keep it coming Michael franzese..gbu
Both Mike's are so unique here. With both of these legends the old cliche applies "what you see is what you get". Intelligent with deep seated emotions. Thanks Michael and I'll see you shortly brother!
Give him a bear hug from me! He's a rooster!
My name mike as well n a â like tyson as eell
Mike Tyson the legend thatâs one guy I would love to sit and watch all the old tapes of fights with he is a boxing historian just like myself .
You will always be the greatest in my eyes!!
Love from đŹđ§
If cus would of stayed alive for another 5 years Tyson would have been the greatest ever
Thank you for having me on đ
Tyson is actually a real and genuine guy, and Michael does a great job structuring this interview to show it. Keep it up!
checkout Mikeâs podcast. hot boxin
Mike Tyson's spirit could power the Sun, man. His laugh, his energy, and his realness just lights up my soul.
Damn...that's deep bruh
Mike Tyson is the epitome of presence.
Mike is clearly living his best life! It's nice to see he's finally made peace with himself
I noticed he became a better person after he converted to Islam.
@Stiv Garneski Thanks for being such a ignorant person. He said himself it changed his life. Mohammed Ali changed his life. The rugby player Sun Bill Williams converted he said it changed his life before all he would do is have sex with different girls.
â@@Truth_Seeker1roflđđđ
My favorite athlete as a kid besides Jordan. He's the reason I became a boxing fan đŻ. There will never be another fighter like Iron Mike!! The stories we hear on this channel are incredible!
Whos jordan
@@Abcd-hr9ot michael jordan
@@Abcd-hr9ot u neva heard of any athletes named jordan at least đ
Its really cool that you didnât censor Mike to deliver an awesome candid sit down! By far my favorite CZcams channel!
@@michaelfranzese You're true American Michael, protecting freedom of speech. I applaud you for respecting your guests and allowing them to speak and express themselves from the heart and mind.
@@michaelfranzese I appreciate how you conduct your sitdown with Tyson and others. I appreciate the candor of this interview. This interview was music to my ears.
Mike Tysons is the today's image of a true man!! Emotional, vulnerable, and not to be messes with.
Mike is so much fun to listen too. And he's a Philosopher fr. Love this. â€â€â€ Bring him back!
This was one of my favorite mike tyson interviews ever, ive never seen him so alive and joyful before.
I respect Mike Tyson
I respect you Mr.Michael
I wish these sitdowns never endâĄ
Mike Tyson is one treasure given to this world.. heâs such a genuine, raw real man. Heâs overcome so much and still going đȘđŸ
Tyson is HILARIOUS. Love his energy when he gets going
Funny how exactly? The way he talks?
Mikeâs transformation is as legendary as he is. Thanks for having him on. Canât wait to see more!
I agree. He has come full circle in his life and seems happy.
"The hole was the best part" geez. Imagine guards thinking they are gonna mentally break Tyson down and put him in the hole, only to discover he is having the best time of his life. That's ceazy.
Man! Mike is the greatest guy ever, even when he get emotional, you hear it in his voice but he keeps you right on track with what he's saying. What a strong individual
The struggles & life lessons this legend has man ! I'm so glad we can have bits of it thru podcasts like this & his Hotboxin. It's really a blessing
Such a great sit down, letting Tyson talk and not leading him for an agenda. I have to say that Tyson is much deeper than I had ever thought until the first sit down and now this one cements it.
I have been watching Mike Tysonâs interviews on you tube for awhile now. He is a highly intelligent individual and I enjoy seeing him in the place he is in now. He remembers fights he watched from years ago, quotes poets, and has a great knowledge of past rulers from hundreds even thousands of years ago. This retention is a sign of high intelligence in my opinion. Imagine if he had Cus around him instead of the blood suckers that represented him. I bet he would have not gone bad for that time.
He's a boxing historian. He knows as much if not more than veteran sports writers and journalists.
@@lighthousesociety. and he has tons of life experience
yes brills-he is amazing -did u see hotboxin with rfk ?
Micheal is the most interesting guy Iâve ever seen!! Such a legend. So is everyone in that room!! đŻđŻđŻ
Hey Micheal, Iâm a fan of yours. One of your best sit down yet.. you both got much in common. Would love to have mike back for one more interview.
I just luv Mike he's so honest and full of great wisdom for anyone's life
I believe Mike got some Italian blood from Cus, I feel how he chokes up when he gets deep and has deep feelings. Much love to you 3 gentleman.
Two great Michaels that turned their life around and found enlightenment. God bless, Michael, thank You for sharing this with us.
This is one of my favourite episodes Michael
Iâve decided tomorrow Iâm going to sit down and pray, write my goals which will make me happy and I will take Tysonâs mentality âdying while tryingâ
Listening to these men and what they have overcome and how happy they still are after the fact.
Itâs given me hope thank you
This is the best interview I've seen with mike. You both did prison time. You guys could tell a million different stories.
Mike can be so funny and insightful at times. He's so full of life even after all the hard times. Tough bloke indeed. Cheers for the sitdown Michael, your a legend mateđ
It's easy to be like that, after the hard times, when you're back to being a millionaire. Imagine he didn't have all the privilege through prison and after. Whole different Tyson.
Yeah I guess you make a fair point
Michael is great interviewer, I just love how he asks the right questions and let's his guests answer without interrupting like a lot of other interviewers do, made for another captivating sit down đŻ
He keeps his circle small now and he was young then and from England we love you Mike Tyson đŻ
Two most legendary men sitting in one room talking and sharing stories .. nothing can beat that. Excellent video
Every time I watch these Sit Downs I feel like I'm a guest in Michaels house. He is right, never call this an interview! This is just too pure. Can't wait for the next.
@@michaelfranzese u are the best..i really look up to you alot..
The genuineness of the interview was amazing, and the honesty is refreshing
Mike Tyson đŻ real. Respect and love the spirit and energy Mike naturally radiates.
Michael Franzese!!
Intelligent guy!!!
The most!!
people underestimate Mike's intelligence! The beginning of this video ⊠his mental strength and how you respond âI like thatâ ⊠man! Real man right there ! Nothing but love and respect
Couldnât agree more
@@julianbryant8230 yeah me too.
Facts man facts !
I believe it was the interview with the boxer Canelo him and Mike were talking about horses and a rare breed of horse called Akhal teke, its coat is so shiny it looks like it glows. Canelo did an interview on his ranch in Mexico, what an incredible thing to see him handle horses. Link below if anyone wants to see it.

Mike seems so Happy and content now , but he still carries that intimidation factor without even trying.
The Toad changed his life
@@danieltucker5087 you wouldnât call him a toad to his face
Love this interview, always loved Mike Tyson,this just shows how he truly is. He is filled with love, and loves to be loved, by true honest friends and family. God bless you Mike đ
Mikes a smart dude. Can watch his interviews all day.
Mr. Franzese, I have a suggestionâŠ
You should consider providing links to previous âparts/sit downsâ within the description of your videos.
That way people who havenât seen âpart oneâ, etc. can click on the provided link instead of having to search for the associated videos.
I bet it would attract more views with easier access. Just a thought.
God bless you and yours!
When I was a kid and heard the allegations against Mike Tyson, I was made to believe he automatically did it. Having actually been through something like that and getting older makes you realize anyone can say anything about you and try to ruin your life because they want what you have and it sucks for the women that are actually telling the truth.
Uhhh....That's great and all, buuuttt Mike was actually very guilty...
There is a vid on yt back in the 80s that former President Trump was defending Tyson and basiclaly saying he did not believe the woman. This was at the height of the case. Love or hate Trump, I always admired he spoke what he felt was true when everyone else was either too afraid or riding the band wagon of hate against Mike.
Well and he admitted he did it
@@christophertaylor9100 yes indeed, but he was being brainwashed and controlled by Robin and that's a fact
@@samsneadd exactly
Super Mike looks like an happy child. Amazing
I don't think i've ever scene Tyson as happy as this while conversing with folks. He's genuinely having a good time.
I love Mike Tyson. He's raw, real, and uncensored. We need more of him in "polite society"
Mike is such a deep character who still talks with street smarts you can see the positive energy in him when he talks about cus you can see the love and depth of weight that he had on him and still has fantastic podcast Mike and Mike and Tom
Dude, this is your best one! You got to hang with Mike Tyson. The guy on the left isnât familiar but you three crushed it!!!!!!!! Good video. đ
Missed this interview somehow, hey Michael, its amazing how much your channel has grown over the past year. Congratulations on the up and coming success.
Michael, You are a Natural. It's like you were born to be an interviewer. Great questions, tone, understanding, humbleness, wisdom etc. Love hearing you speak and engage with others.
Loved watching Mike back in the day! Love watching him now getting choked up and emotional and spitting the truth. Legend!
Mike is something else. A force of nature
âCant have the testimony without the testâ - Mike tyson!
This was f**** amazing...mike,michael and patti are droping wisdom straight from the devine,pure honesty,no ego involved,just real men,talkin real life s***
Mike Tyson and Michael Franzese in the same video this is great
Mike & mike..there a couple guys that really lived it..
When warriors sit down and talk together, with smiles on their faces and laughter in their voices; That day is a good day.
Part one was my favorite of all sit downs !!! Canât wait to watch this â!!!
Thank you Michael!! Have a great afternoon!! See you later with Inner Circle!!!!
Michael thank you again for another amazing sit down. So glad you being who you are chose this medium ( CZcams) to create such quality content.
This exchange was as heartfelt and genuine as I ve seen.. Life experiences.
Everyone Loves Tyson what a dude!! đđ»
Conversations with guys just sitting around in a relaxed environment is the best. Great job Mike!
What a nice guy, itâs a change listening to an honest person no airs and graces about him.
Thanks Micheal.
My loyalty has never changed Mr. Tyson, even when you lost for the first time I never changed Conners. Iv always been in your corner. Your life the ups & downs & the way you still come back, your an inspiration Mr. Tyson, your "My Hero"
Always has & will always be,
"The Man" You have done things in the Ring that only others can just dream about.
Glad you guys finally made the interview happen. I remember the interview with both of them and Michael told iron Mike that they should get together.
This might be the best interview slash podcast I have ever heard and Iâm not lying. It gave me chills.
This interview series is arguably the best I have ever seen so far. I can just see myself beside those slices boxes munching out shooting the shit with these Men. Like shop talk with great information. This was so fun to watch. Very real approach.
2 legends just sitting down and having a chat. Love it! Much respect!
I have a lot of people that I talk and joke with, my Real friends I can count on one hand, the closer your circle the happier you are.
Feel as though this has been one of the best interviews with Tyson because the interviewer is on a genuine level with himâŠ
Thanks for the interview Mike and Mike. Tyson has always been one of my favorite athletes in and out of the ring.
There's something adorable about his genuineness.
He's done a lot of thinking & reading.
"The truth WILL set you free.. but it's gonna make you miserable first"..Great quote and true for many.
This is a good interview. Mike sometimes smokes during interviews and it affects his responses. A clear minded Mike is way more engaging.
Mikes such a genuine guy. Hes always himself no matter who hes around and unapologetic in his opinion and views. Unafraid to stand on his own and have his own original thought and perspectives.
The boxing game, not for everyone, franzese is making a living from interviewing people, the talk is all about moneyđ©
Mike is getting wiser every time. He is lowkey a philosopher.
Mike Tyson is such a kind soul - it was beautiful to see him interact with another kind soul Michael Franzese.
Genuine Class and just wonderful lessons of life. Thank you Michael for these sit downs.
This new,and reformed Tyson is a genuine dude.
He was always genuine, it's just in the right direction now even though I never believed he raped that woman
'I wanna be up more than anybody wants me down'... Wise words!!
