More quotes by Mike Tyson
A man that is a friend to everyone is an enemy to himself.
Mike Tyson
My power is discombobulatingly devastating.
Mike Tyson
This is my career. I have children to raise. I have to retaliate. Evander Holyfield butted me. Look at me. My kids will be scared of me.
Mike Tyson
Anyone with a grain of sense would know that if I punched my wife I would rip her head off. It's all lies. I have never laid a finger on her.
Mike Tyson
In order to be a friend to anybody, you have to be a friend to yourself. If you're not a friend to yourself, there's no way you're gonna have any friends.
Mike Tyson
I haven't been with a woman in nine months.
Mike Tyson
I'm scared every time I go into the ring, but it's how you handle it. What you have to do is plant your feet, bite down on your mouthpiece and say, 'Let's go.'
Mike Tyson
I'm a man. I lived it and I'm not afraid to die but when I die I'm going to paradise and I'm not worried.
Mike Tyson
Fear is your best friend or your worst enemy. It's like fire. If you can control it, it can cook for you it can heat your house. If you can't control it, it will burn everything around you and destroy you. If you can control your fear, it makes you more alert, like a deer coming across the lawn.
Mike Tyson
I never wanted to do anything else but fight, when I was a kid. I never had any broader perspective of my own perspective. I didn't know anything about anything else. I just wanted to fight until I could fight no more, and then I wanted to own a bar and drink and tell war stories.
Mike Tyson
I just want to be humble at all times.
Mike Tyson
Not to be egotistical, but I don't think there is a man on this planet who can beat me
Mike Tyson
Friendth, Romanth, countrymen, lend me your earsth.
Mike Tyson
At times, I come across as crude or crass, that irritates you when I come across like a Neanderthal or a babbling idiot at times. But I like to be that person. I like to show you all that person because that's who you come to see.
Mike Tyson
I had to persevere because this was my life. This championship, this was the stuff I dreamt of all my life, and I wasn't gonna be denied.
Mike Tyson
Fear and the thought of failure . . . But we don't really know what fear is. Fear is something that we create in our own minds. Fear could be like fire. You can use it to heat you up, keep you warm, cook your food. There are so many things you can use it for. But if you allow it to go out of control, it will destroy you and everything around you.
Mike Tyson
People say 'Poor guy.' That insults me. I despise sympathy. So I screwed up. I made some mistakes. 'Poor guy,' like I'm some victim. There's nothing poor about me.
Mike Tyson
I hate to cry and I hate to sound like sour grapes, but no one ever listens to me. No one ever hears what I have to say.
Mike Tyson
It's just what I'm born to do, I'm born to entertain people. I could do it for thirty-thousand people or three people, it's just what I know how to do. My soul objective only is for me to have the audience say 'when's the next time I can see him?' That's what I do.
Mike Tyson
My father was a pimp before he became a deacon or something. These people know how to handle women. I'm the worst guy in the world with women. They run circles around me.
