Mike Tyson is actually a perfect gentleman nowadays. Truly transformed. However, I question or deny that Mike T. has always wanted to do a show on Broadway. Thats just over the top!

Mike Tyson is actually a perfect gentleman nowadays. Truly transformed.

About a dozen years ago, our southern California church had a men's retreat, and several fellows on a hike bumped into Tyson. It was near Big Bear, which at 7,000 feet elevation has long been a favorite training getaway for SoCal boxers (e.g., Oscar de la Hoya trained there); that may explain Tyson's presence there.

Anyway, he asked them why they were there, and when he heard he asked them to pray for him. I wasn't in their group at the time--only heard about it afterwards--so I cannot provide more detail than that, other than that they found him to be pleasant and engaging.
