Early Life

Mike Tyson was born on the 30th of June 1966, in Brownsville, Brooklyn, New York. He had two siblings, Rodney and Denise; however, his sister passed away from a heart attack at only 24 years old.

Although, Tyson’s biological father is listed as “Purcell Tyson”, Mike saw his father figure as Jimmy Kirkpatrick. Kirkpatrick was from Grier Town, North Carolina, and one of the neighborhood’s top baseball players. He was quite a gambler and hung out in areas you’d expect someone of that nature to be in.

Kirkpatrick abandoned the family later on, and Tyson’s mother died when he was only 16 years old. Which left him in the care of his boxing manager Cus D’Amato.

Throughout his childhood, Tyson lived in and around high-crime neighborhoods. He mentioned in a past interview that his first fight was with a bigger youth, who had pulled the head off one of his pigeons.

Tyson was regularly caught committing crimes and had already been arrested 38 times by age 13. He ended up at the Tryon School for Boys in Johnstown and later dropped out of high school.

Career

Tyson was 18 years old when he made his professional debut in boxing. Prior to that, he’d competed as an amateur in the Junior Olympics.

He quickly grew to become the champion, after winning 26 of his first 28 fights by either KO or TKO. For a long time, people thought Tyson was unbeatable. That was until Buster Douglas came along. You’ve probably heard Douglas’ story about his mother passing away before the fight, after telling everyone her son was going to beat Mike Tyson.

Douglas managed to last more rounds than anybody else had ever gone to with Tyson; and after reaching that point, realized that Tyson began to lose energy and stamina rapidly after the 5 or 6th round.

Tyson was the first heavyweight boxer to simultaneously hold the WBA, WBC, and IBF titles, and the only heavyweight to unify them successively. He is still considered, to this day, one of the best boxers of all time.

However, his reputation was very much stained after being sentenced to prison for 6 years, after being convicted of rape. He tried to make a comeback after his prison sentence, but it was short-lived.

Mike Tyson’s net worth, once upon a time, was $300 million. After splashing the cash, and suffering from the consequences of some of his actions; Mike Tyson’s net worth is now only $10 Million.
