He is the titular character in Mike Tyson Mysteries, which started airing on October 27, 2014, on Adult Swim. In the animated series, Tyson voices a fictionalized version of himself, solving mysteries in the style of Scooby-Doo.

However, over time, Tyson has explained that the tattoo is not meant to be a direct copy of traditional Maori moko but rather a personal interpretation of the design. In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, Tyson stated that the tattoo is meant to represent his own struggles and battles in life, as well as his inner strength and warrior spirit.

In hindsight, it was a mistake for Zhang to come into this fight in the 290s, as that was too much weight and affected his hand speed and stamina. Zhang didn’t land a punch in the 12th round because he was too tired. That was telling.

Joyce (15-1, 14 KOs), 37, from Putney in southwest London, never recovered after his right eye began to swell and close by the end of the first round from Zhang’s accurate left-hand punches at the Copper Box Arena, in east London.

Everyone knows Mike Tyson really cherishes his face tattoo, right? But guess what? The guy who actually inked it, S. Victor Whitmill, seems to love it even more. He even went ahead and sued Warner Bros. over them using it without his permission! Crazy, huh?

Parker lost his next fight, too, a decision setback to Dillian Whyte that seemed to end any hope of a future title shot. But now, Parker is well-positioned while the trio of top heavyweights settle bragging rights as he looks toward another bout with Zhang.

It was a perfect response to his hugely contentious first defeat by Filip Hrgovic on the Usyk-Joshua 2 undercard in Saudi Arabia last summer. Zhang is behind WBO contender Daniel Dubois and IBF challenger Hrgovic in a long list of mandatories for unified champion Usyk.

«It’ll be 100% at some point at the end of the year. It’s going to be another tough fight, but I want to go away and prepare very well in New Zealand. We’ll be blocking ourselves away for four or five months and come back, and Andy will put in the work. I’ll be better, stronger, faster, and everything else,» said Parker.

Cus wanted the meanest fighter that God ever created, someone who scared the life out of people before they even entered the ring. He trained me to be totally ferocious, in the ring and out. At the time, I needed that. I was so insecure, so afraid. I was so traumatized from people picking on me when I was younger. I just hated the humiliation of being bullied. That feeling sticks with you for the rest of your life. But Cus gave me confidence so that I didn’t have to worry about being bullied ever again. I knew nobody was ever going to fuck with me physically.

Since then Tyson has gone bankrupt in 2003, losing his $400 million fortune, been involved in several drug-related run-ins with the law, and got in trouble for comments he made in the media about Sarah Palin. Despite all this, Tyson has managed to build back his brand and is now worth around an estimated $10 million, mainly thanks to his cannabis company Tyson 2.0. He’s also helped soften the media and public’s perception of him by exposing his flaws in interviews, appearing in movies, such as The Hangover, and revealing more about himself on his podcast, Hot Boxin’.

If you see someone with an interesting tattoo, you will likely ask him why he chose it, when he decided to get the tattoo that would stay on his body forever, or what it means to him. The same is true for Mike Tyson, who holds special meaning behind each of his six tattoos.

Despite his difficult circumstances, Tyson discovered his talent for boxing at an early age. He learned to defend himself in street fights and honed his skills through constant practice. However, his involvement with gangs and a series of arrests threatened to derail his future. It was through the intervention of his counselor, Bob Stewart, that Tyson’s life took a positive turn. Stewart recognized Tyson’s potential and introduced him to legendary boxing trainer Cus D’Amato.

Cus D’Amato was more than a boxing light heavyweight boxers trainer with a good eye for talent. D’Amato was a legend, hailed as the man who had successfully fought mobster Frank Carbo’s boxing monopoly and made Floyd Patterson «king of the sport,» in the words of People reporter William Plummer. Norman Mailer had called him a Zen master. He was more of a teacher than a trainer, a teacher in the old, all-encompassing sense. While he taught his fighters the moves, he also drew them out, discovering their hidden talents and fears. «Fear is like a fire,» he’d tell them. «If you control it, as we do when we heat our houses, it is a friend. When you don’t it consumes you and everything around you.»
