Mike Tyson was a horrible and manipulative bully, said famous promoter Frank Warren

Well-known boxing Hall of Fame promoter Frank Warren gave an interview where he gave an honest assessment of the character of former heavyweight boxing world champion Mike Tyson.

Mike Tyson was at one time the scariest man on the planet

Mike Tyson is a living boxing legend. He became the youngest heavyweight boxing champion of the world at the age of 22 and terrified his opponents for many years to come. Not for nothing was he called “the scariest man on the planet”.

He earned the nickname not only for his brutal feats between the ropes, but also for the many controversies in his personal and professional life. He was generally considered to have a very violent temper.

A guide to his personal life and boxing career was recently made available by the streaming company Hulu, which released an eight-part series about the famous boxing legend. In the series, of course, the creators depict not only the legendary boxer’s rise, but also his wild moments and troubles with the law.

Of course, this might not be a problem, as the boxer often returns to his transgressions himself. However, the actor himself is particularly incensed by the fact that he had no involvement in the filming of his own story and claims that the company violated his copyright.

One of the big controversies was his attack on promoter Warren

One of his famous controversies was his assault on promoter Frank Warren during a visit to his hotel room. In it, Tyson allegedly attacked the famous man with his fist over the fact that he was involved in his expensive jewelry business. Warren suffered facial injuries and a broken blood vessel in his eye.

He was a manipulative bully, the famous promoter said

The mutual relationship between the two men was obviously tarnished and the promoter has now expressed himself quite negatively about the person of Mike Tyson. ” Mike was a horrible and manipulative bully,” Warren said , according to Talksport.

“He mentally abused all of his opponents, beat everyone he could mentally break,” he offered his opinion. “But there were a select few individuals who endured his bullying, and they were able to beat him, ” he recalled of the opponents who were able to beat him, especially towards the end of his career.

“When he wanted to and devoted himself fully to the sport, he was an exciting fighter,” he praised the famous boxer. “But then everything went wrong and he threw his promising career away,” he said.

“If you sat next to him and had a chat, you would be filled with compassion, ” he said. “But there is no reason for pity, the man can be persuasive and manipulative, he did all his mistakes deliberately,” he added of the legendary fighter.
