I saw a really good documentary on Mike Tyson. MT just was not capable to handle money like that (which is not a problem if you have good people around you).
Anyhow, what screwed him was when he switched to the scum don king and then got involved with Mrs. Givens the gold digger.
Sometimes you just can’t do it all, I mean, MT in the “89” shape was the greatest fighter EVER (yea, he was!) and he got to that point partly because HE DID NOTHING ELSE BUT PRACTICE BOXING so it’s just sad to see that after his first mentor died nobody could step in to look after him and his money.
Remember also that boxing is a shady dirty business anyway…
