Mike Tyson attacked a passenger on a flight to Florida who was talking to another passenger.
The incident occurred on a flight from San Francisco to Fort Lauderdale. Tyson and the man who was with him were both in the Mint business class product.
The conversation started well. Tyson agreed to take a picture. The man and his friend kept talking. Tyson told the guy to chill out. The badgering continued.
At one point, Tyson stood up and began punching the man seated behind him. All of this happened before the flight left.
Tyson stepped off the plane. The passenger sought medical attention as well as the police. It is not clear if he will be filing charges. A request for comment was not responded to.
The passenger was extremely drunk, according to the report.
I appreciate the peace and quiet on board. I won't go out of my way to talk with my seatmate and I will always respect someone's desire to be distributed.
At the same time, I feel bad for Tyson because he has a disgusting lack of self-control. He just wanted to sleep.
You have to wonder if the whole thing was a set-up if you watch the video above. The passenger makes gestures towards the camera. It seems like this was a contest to stir up Tyson.
He said after the guy was beaten up.
“My boy just got beat up by Mike Tyson. Yeah, he got f*cked up. Just trying to ask for an autograph. I don’t know what happened.”
It's not true. The passenger was harassing Tyson. You get burned when you mess with fire.
Mike Tyson was filmed hitting a seatmate in the face on a flight to Florida. The passenger refused to leave Tyson alone, leading to the conflict.
