Joe Rogan Experience #1532 - Mike Tyson

you did, but what are you? doing now like this there's something similar that you liked when you watched those old school tapes, if you watched like jack dempsey or harry greb or any of these old school wrestlers, there was something about that that provided the inspiration that you were, you were learning from her, but it was also that you're getting into this mentality, yeah, because I know that if I were like that, because I would tell you. The more you win, the more you beat these guys, the more people applaud them, the more you enjoy doing it um and um I wanted the people who wanted the people to have the same feeling towards me that I had towards the elders.

Yesterday's fighters, yeah, so I was madly in love with fighters, I was right now and if I met a tough fighter, let's get this kid out of there, we just pestered him to death, let me carry you back and help this guy to do this. you know you think they were going to like you for being hey, take this kid, yeah, yeah, yeah, carry a bag, it can help you with this, but it doesn't, you don't study movies like that now periodically, but you know what ? Sometimes I do it because they have YouTube. I watch YouTube and they have a fight.

Let me see. Let me see it. Let me see. Might also see some rave robs and some Willy Pep stuff. If I have one. Let me see this. Lomachenko is. He's a wild guy to watch, isn't he? It's really nice to see. It's really interesting. Yes, I like to see the footwork. It is so exciting. I just like doing that. It's like seeing a lot of people hate it, but you know, that's how. It's just that you know he's got the light when yeah, that's the light they got behind you, yeah, who's got you excited the most, that's, uh, fighting today, they got a couple of guys, Haney, well, the guy, her It's good, the other little one in Baltimore is good, it's quite a bit. some and he's got a couple of guys um that's under them that's pretty good that's going to come up and be really good with them others spence is really good terence crawford terence crawford is good there's a lot of good wrestlers out there little guy ryan Garcia yeah he's the good one yeah crazy I love it but they're talking yeah and I say I'm insecure that's awesome I paint a puncher right in the face they might think I'm a punk let them do it . that to me and these guys are cool looking friends yeah what do you think of the heavyweight division nowadays?

It's okay, Joshua, everyone's good for that moment. I don't think they're lazy or anything like that, but I love them all. have something negative to say about someone right, you know this is their time, they are the best of their time, you have to give them that credit, you can't compete with the guys of the past, our guys are coming up now, this is just their time this is what it is now this is what it is now this time let's judge it from right here what do you think about it so it's an interesting group at the top of the heap right Tyson Fury Deontay Wilder anthony joshua I mean it's an interesting group at the highest level right now, no, it's not interesting, they are all exciting fighters, yes, they are all going to win a lot of money, they need to fight each other, yes, stop talking nonsense.

We all fight each other, we fight each other a few times, yeah, and then when this is over, you guys might say, hey, listen, we did it our way, you know? This is what happened to me. I'm so egotistical that I fell in love. that's like laugh hard I'm the king forever I'll always be the king that's how you are I never think about tomorrow anything this is now I'm the king just kiss my ring this and that and the fact that I just thought I'd never list this is what I didn't hear because I said, hey yeah, you always don't take this person, I took the fight personally because they don't take it personally, it's not personal, right, I took it personally and the ego makes me take it as something personal so when he said don't take it personally, what did he mean by that?

Don't let that stop you from living your life in a happy perspective. I lost the fight. Don't commit suicide. Start drinking and. doing cocaine and stuff girls without trash you don't know you met him 10 minutes ago don't do these things okay don't do these things when you lose the fight like okay don't do anything you lose the fight you shake the guy's hand you go to the gym you work harder you prepare for the fight you pay you win the fight you don't win the fight you prepare harder you wait for the next fight you win the fight you don't get the fight fight with other guys, win the fight and then fight them again, the name of the game, you you keep busy, you keep working, how different things would have been if it had cost a lot, yes, very different, but it wasn't meant to be, yes, it had to be done. reload, I had to figure these things out, he couldn't protect me my whole life, right?

You know, yeah, I've always wondered, I've always wondered what would have been different if he had stayed alive because I mean, he had guided you through such an amazing way, you know and you because he was just listening because he's a hard guy to get along with. Cust he was just enemy prone if he didn't have an enemy he would create one really one of those guys that he loved to fight and wants to fight. If he doesn't fight he doesn't want to lift wow he wants to fight he needs to have someone to fight with if he doesn't have someone to fight with he will find someone to fight with he must have loved having you as a student oh well I heard everything he said I heard it I was close about him, he loved people to listen to him and I got him to say everything he said, what I would do if he told me to kill someone, that would kill someone, you know, everything he said.

Did you think about him even today while training absolutely afterwards? I think about it all the time. You know what I mean. I think about them all the time. I wish he could sell my children. I wish he'd probably seen you. I know what I did and how I did it and how my kids turned out and now they do, you know, they went to great schools and they did great things and they're just kids and they're really, really sweet kids who don't really understand life yet. And maybe because they didn't have a father like me and things are different than they were for me, yeah, you don't want your kids to fight, no, no, I did that, that's what I did if it wasn't necessary, yeah, I remember. you were talking about your son, uh, hitting pads and like him, possibly fighting like a man, you don't want to find an animal like me, there are people who have nothing to lose and all the dreams about me beating this guy.

I'll get that new bike, yeah, maybe I'll get this car, that's how it was because if you win this tournament, I'll get you this, you win the summer, I'll get you your gold teeth, I'll try to save my money with my gold. teeth and if I win this tournament, you win this tournament, I'll get your gold teeth, everything, everything, always, um, dangle the carrot, yeah, you win, well listen, Mike, I'm really excited for you to come back, I am too I'm, I'm so happy that you're doing it, I'm happy that you look fantastic, it was really great to be able to sit down and talk to you about this and I'm 100 excited about it, I think I hope to see you there because I'm sure some people will be there and We will be excited.

You know I should know what I'm doing. I've done it a couple of times, I've talked to some homeless people and they're very interesting, yeah I guess sometimes I think I'll overwhelm them intellectually in the end and sometimes I feel humiliated, well a lot of humble people are. really smart, they just got into whatever part of his head he couldn't keep calm.
