MIKE TYSON SAYS HIS LIFE HAS BEEN A WASTE

mike3.jpg
Former boxing champion Mike Tyson has no idea why Jamie Foxx wants to play him in a new biopic, because he’s convinced his life has been a waste. The once-feared fighter, has been reduced to training for cash as a tourist attraction in Las Vegas, in an effort to pay off debts. Tyson’s training camp exhibition at the Aladdin/Planet Hollywood hotel is drawing in the crowds but the boxer wants no one’s pity or praise.

He says, “I don’t see myself in perspective that everyone else seems to see me. I think the 40 years of my life have been a waste.” [READ MORE]

    And here’s my thing about celebrities with ridiculous amounts of money. They should give back to the community. Making millions for one fight is crazy money. instead of buying multiple mansions and ferraris, he could have built a community center in Brooklyn, where he is from. Helped some kids go to college. I believe GOD blesses certain people with talent and money to help out others. And he did NONE of that. Jesus didnt keep all the fish to himself. He shared with his people. Do you know how much GOOD he could have done?? Even T.I. is rebuilding neighborhoods in his town. And I KNOW he not making 36 million dollars in one album much less one Fight.

    his life is certainly not a waste BUT the way he spent his money is

    Yup, Mark that is indeed what makes a great life, fucking mad bitches driving nice whips and having lots of money. Hmmmm, just goes to show you….that’s not all that its cracked up to be. We are so fooled into thinking material things are so important…but without peace within none of it means anything.

  5. Dang, it been when you look back on your life and say it’s a waste

  6. ms_mac1

    MIke Tyson himself is a waste.

    Mike’s comment just doesn’t suprise me, he is known for saying dumb shit. If your life has been a waste mike, go jump off a cliff then, we will not miss yo ass.

  8. Saddamnyouall

    Cartetome you must obviously be a piece of shit to say something like that about anyone who so obviously needs real help.

    I think I know what Mike is trying to say. He is saying that spending his life beating the fuck out of people for millions of bucks was not the greatest thing he could have done with his life. He means that maybe being a highschool history teacher could have been a more rewarding path to take.

    His life hasn’t been a waste, he’s just made some very, very, very poor choices. At one time he did make history and I can certainly see Jamie playing him in a film. He’d do it justice.

  11. Mike awww don’t beat yourself up about past mistakes. No matter what you’ve done in your past know that your life was not a waste. God has a purpose and a plan for your life and until you stop trying to fix your life and put it in Jesus Hands you will continue to feel this way. I pray that you begin to realize that your still here for a reason and the Lord is able to give you a new chapter to start your life with a clean slate. Man will always hold you in contempt but God forgives sins and throws them into the lake of forgetfulness see Isaiah 43:25. ;)

  12. oops and pertaining to the topic at hand I think it would be a good story but I’d rather see Omar Epps act it out. I just love to see Omar epps act jamie would do good too.

    I feel sorry for him and to hear him say that his life is a waste is sad. You would think there’s something else he could do to make money besides humiliating himself. I wish him the best.

  14. MS.KANE

    I WISH MIKE THE BEST.

  15. ellescloset

  16. ellescloset
