Mike seems like hes always agitated or looking for a fight and something to be emotional and aggressive about, not a good vibe if you ask me. Briggs handled it well by being chilled.

      @@zeizaze5159 I agree with your analysis and assessment of Mike! But I cannot agree in regards to Shannon and here's why - When prompted he denies crying on the podcast which he clearly does. He said numerous times he wanted to come on the show and "chill" and I'm sorry but Shannon is not Sugar Ray Leonard! Your description for Shannon is suited for Sugar Ray not Shannon. Sugar Ray is comfortable with bringing up his past - Shannon is not. He doesn't want to dive too deep or too long on it.

      I cringe everytime Mike Tyson interrupts. Shannon is saying some good shit and Mike would interrupt by asking him " who are we". I love Mike Tyson and barely know Shannon Briggs but he a good dude. But Mike gotta stop making it harder for me to watch his podcasts. Recently, he posted a video of him and Shaq doing a socially distanced podcast and he kept interrupting every few seconds which I had to pause the video. I think somethings wrong with me but I respect Mike Tyson. Usually he brings some wisdom into the podcasts but I didn't see shit here.

    Shannon hurts when Mike slips into his past so he motivates him and tries to pull him back. Everytime he says "chill", it means that he believes in Mike and dwelling on the past is pointless. Living a humble life is essential, but when there is darkness you have the power to pull yourself out.

      Lu B-A didn’t you see Tyson was so much more serious in this interview then in past ones. Now that he’s training to fight an exhibition match he’s starting to act a little more differently. Like 2 or 3 times in this interview Tyson didn’t like Briggs telling him to chill.... briggs told tyson to stop talking about what he was talking about and Tyson told him with a serious face that he wasn’t going to chill because it’s his show and he can talk about what he wants...... Tyson has never had to be that serious with someone and tell them that straight up like that in this podcast. Briggs had mentioned on Instagram that he would love to fight Tyson so I feel that now that Tyson is training for a match, he feels kind of like Briggs is possible competition. Plus Tyson doesn’t joke much and Briggs does so kind of like a personality clash.

    • @RaikhardWarGod
      @RaikhardWarGod Před 4 lety +2

      Lu B-A if you see an interview Briggs just did on you tube a couple days ago, he’s saying he wants to fight Tyson, Holyfield, briggs, David haye, and that he would chop em ALL down. He’s been talking about wanting that fight and working on it. No one takes things as personal as Tyson when it comes to when he’s going to fight someone. He sees them as enemy’s and says he wants to eat their children and all of that lol. After the fight it’s all good but before that he wants to rip there head off. I think that’s why you can see Tyson kind of bothered by Shannon’s behavior and hated being told to chill on his own show. Read the comments hundreds noticed it.

    In my opinion: Mike Tyson has elite wisdom. It's not the most important thing about how or why he got there. He adequately understands about enlightenment and it reflects in his honesty. He acknowledges all aspects of his nature (good and bad) and finally understands how to manage them. Everyone can benefit from sitting down and having a genuine conversation with modern Mike. He just has the most captivating way of conveying the knowledge he learned from his extraordinary experience. And he cares enough to elevate humanity.

    My favorite podcast with two exceptional Brownsville men. Mike, you're still fascinated and totally stunned that you are still alive and have made it. Shannon had it rough too. It's nice that you both made it to here. We love you. It's true, it's important to look back at the path you've walked, at what you've overcome. All the more that always looking ahead can sometimes be tiresome but if the past is heavy, you can look ahead too because ahead is a white page that you can still write on. Love to both of you and may your boxing academy in Brownsville succeed. It doesn't have to be lavish but a safe place for kids. Just a safe, caring and focused place. That would already be huge. Make sure that this safe haven doesn't become a place where you market kids and sell them to the most bidding but a place where kids can decide for themselves what they can become.
