Iron Mike down and out

I don’t know whether to feel pity for Mike Tyson or not.
38 years old and broke, taking and losing fights against journeymen like Danny Williams who Tyson would have knocked out in two minutes in his prime, it just looks like a sad spectacle.

Mike Tyson won and has apparently lost close to $400 million and is now just fighting to pay off his debts.
He’s brought most of his troubles on himself by his actions and the people he’s had around him, but I think its a shame that probably the most exciting fighter I’ve seen, who won most of his fights before the first bell by sheer intimidation, should end up destroying his own legend chasing one more payday.
