Every now and then a person appears on the scene that is so completely unusual and utterly vicious and insane that you cannot help but feel sorry for that person.
The person that I chosen to comment on this week is none other than ya boy Iron Mike aka. Kid Dynamite.
Mike Tyson is the modern day equivelant of a real life gladiator. For the better part of 25 + years we have watched Mike break himself down over and over again. Mike matured during the golden years of the media. There is enough video footage on Mike to keep you rolling forever.

Recently I had the chance to watch the most recent documentary on Mike directed by James Tobak. Now, I am a huge boxing fan and have watched every Mike docu and movie that they have ever released. One thing is different with this one. Clearly Mike has aged and this muhfukka continues to be nuts and indulge in his own pity party. I feel sorry for this dude I really do. But unless you have the I.Q. of a fucking monkey ( probably a 50 piece at best ) how in the world can you squander 300-400 million duckets.
That my friends is unforgivable. Mike was taken advantage of by the people who should have been looking out for him. That is the real tragedy. I mean come the fuck on, this dude is not going to teach us new things about stem cell research, or unlock some mystery to the universe.
Mike needs real friends with real good intentions. No matter how many times I hear Mike so eloquently display his vastly superior vocabulary, I can only think that just because most people cant spell the words you use doesn't mean you should insert them into any old sentence.
I could live to be 150 years old and never see another dude like Mike Tyson.
This guy is a national treasure that needs to be nurtured and remembered for what he brought to boxing. But, I can say one thing; put the freak of nature into the ring with anyone.. and I do mean anyone, when he was in his prime. He would wipe the fuckin floor wit em. In the words of my guy Mookdizzle, " what the fuck are you gonna do against this stud in a dark alley?"
That boy grab a hold of you and put that Catskill NY grip on u, man you better pack a full lunch.
You'd have to crack that dome with a bag of washers or plug him with a .45 or something high caliber.
i.e. Mitch Green.
