Little Joe Loudmouth - Mike Tyson Goes Old School For Throw Back Thursday!

I LOVE me some Mike Tyson!  One of the most feared (and unintentionally funny) men to ever walk this earth, and though he's changed his ways, at any moment he can snap.  And yesterday we got another chance to see that.

Before we get to what happened yesterday, let's take a trip down memory lane.

Now we're all familiar with the old Mike Tyson...you know the "I want to rip their stomachs out and eat their children!" Mike.

In case you're not familiar with that Mike, in honor of Throw Back Thursday here's a video of some of the greatest Tyson highlights, outside of the ring.

Warning, strong language...NSFW

 

So that leads us to what transpired yesterday in Toronto.  Tyson was appearing on the cable news channel CP24 to promote his Live show.  Host, Nathan Downer, asked him about his recent meeting with Toronto's mayor Rob Ford.

Downer followed up by asking Tyson "Some of your critics would say, 'There's a race for mayor. We know you're a convicted rapist. This could hurt his campaign.' How would respond to that?"

Tyson didn't respond well, letting it be known that he didn't appreciate the question nor the man who asked it.

The quality of the video isn't the best, but you can clearly hear Iron Mike isn't thrilled.

Warning, BAD language, NSFW

 

So, do you think Tyson was out of line?  You can let me know on Twitter, @LittleJoeRadio
