Mike Tyson appeared to attack a fellow passenger on a Wednesday night flight, according to footage released Thursday by TMZ.

Tyson, who had boarded a Florida-bound plane from San Francisco, is said to have engaged with his fellow passenger prior to the incident, a witness told the gossip site, with the former heavyweight even posing for a selfie.

This guy was deliberately agitating Mike, looking for a payoff. Mike let him off easy. If he sues Mike over this I hope loses big time, both in the court and on social media.

Not guilty.

How much provocation does he have to take?
Methinks a drunken skunk did it on purpose hoping for a quick payout.

Good that Tyson still looks fit compared to so many old athletes. This will probably end up with him and the yahoo who worked him up getting a lot of interest in the media. My assumption is that he was goaded and provoked; it may not take that much to get him going. But let's not forget that the whole thing may have been staged. The guy looks like a Russian or Ukrainian soldier, and someone who has been in scrapes in the past.

Good for Mike!

People try to provide fighters to hit them so they can bothmsur, and brag about the incident later. I’ve seen Mike hole,his cool, when some jackinape tried provoking him before. I wonder how often it happens with him and other boxers? It’s like the gunslinger who would always have to face people trying to build their reputations.

Mike came from the streets and street brawling, so he’s more easily antagonize me thinks.

[Bob434]

Doh, stupid autocorrect. I meant “people try to provoke fighters like Mike all,the time”

[fightin kentuckian]

“Good for Mike!” I agree. The guy was being an jerk and extremely disrespectful to Mike.

[Obadiah]

My take as well. IMO, this looks like a cheap TikTok set up.

[Leep]

There are circumstances you can punch someone in the face

If the guy was relentlessly bothering Tyson..especially if he was repeatedly name calling.

I have warned people that am going to take their aggressive behavior as an attack and I will do whatever I need to do to defend myself.

[hflynn]

I have always heard the last thing a pro fighter losses in his punching power. I guess Mike has lost everything now.

[Seruzawa]

“The View” needs to hire him as security.

[EEGator]

What did Will Smith do?

[Wayne07]

Definitely was first class seating, not first class behavior.

[Red6]

I literally feel sorry for Tyson.

[libh8er]

I watched the full video. Mike didn’t punch him enough.

This guy has the L for Loser upside down on the right side of his face. He can’t even get that right.

You can go a long way with a smile. You can go a lot farther with a tattoo and a fist.

With apologies to Professor Irwin Corey

Guy looks like a big a’hole gene carrier.
