He's studying history, which is easier for him, because he is history. Thanks EveningStar.

-- Mike Tyson
Boo hoo, he got used by EVVVERYONE —nothing is Mike Tyson’s fault.
In fact nothing is the fault of ANY black person, says Muslim Mike Tyson, who thought a really, really trustworthy person was...
DON KING.
What a sniveling, crying, racist little BOY.
Watch Tyson go off on the host of a Toronto TV show => https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGViDiaGZC0
A little harsh...maybe?
This isn’t a poor pitiful me story about Tyson...
He seems to have grown wiser and humbler...
Considering he was a poorly educated street thug...he seems to have stepped up a few notches...
Read the article, Tyson doesn’t appear to be pulling the race card here.
Yeah, but Tyson has become somewhat of a folk hero now. And he WAS a helluva boxer (Still can’t get past him in Mike Tyson’s punchout)
This is one of the most interesting articles I’ve read all week, EveningStar. A heavy appetite for reading history is a mark of a serious man, and it sounds like Mike Tyson has finally grown up. That’s saying a lot considering where he started and the tough path that he took. Few come through a long boxing career with a clear mind, and Tyson appears to be putting his to good use. Good for him.
Must've happened in the last 6 months. See post #4.
Oh' come on...the old Tyson would have cold cocked the little dewb...
..its bounce.. if you take a big fall will you bounce back humbled but wiser ... it his case it seem so...
I watched a number of interviews of him and he always struck me as surprisingly intelligent. Troubled but intelligent.
He's studying history, which is easier for him, because he is history. Thanks EveningStar.
My thoughts too on this article. No pity party here and I admire anyone who reads and studies history.
One of my absolute favorite (and accurate) quotes. Is it really his or did he take it from someone else?
Did he really use the word “didactical”?
“I got old too soon and smart too late.”
I sense a lot of regret in that statement, but I don’t hear any demand for pity.
It’s really his but it was “Everybody has a plan until they get hit. Then, like a rat, they stop in fear and freeze.”
