I know there's a few on here that are fans of the Joe Rogan Experience Podcast and just been announced on thursday they have Mike Tyson on. Should be interesting.

I'm not anticipating anything new;

Cus
Drugs
Talk of being an animal.

The Mike Tyson formula of storytelling re: his life.

Will still listen, though imagine I'll be switching off early if it's the same old spiel. I only read half of the undisputed truth and got bored.

That book put me off Mike Tyson forever. Woe is me, I'm so hard done by. All someone else's fault

I must say I agree, portrayed himself as a whinger.

Im a great fan of Mike Tyson, also read the book but got bored as it was very repetative. Sex, drugs, fights and a few swear words in the mix.

I hate it to be true, but I agree with the comments. Tyson dragged me into boxing. I had a spark of interest at 11 years old, then I was hooked in 86 with his rise. I could sit and list all his fights, the endings, rounds, probably which punch did it. Magnetic personality, outlandish, arrogant, volatile and then, when in retirement, he has become a little meh!

Half the interviews he sounds stoned, forgetful and uninterested and the others hyperactive and bouncy like a teenage girl who was given some HD Brow vouchers

And the book, had such potential and then became a "I got an 8 ball of coke and got thrown out of a club.....then I got some drugs and fell asleep.....then I tried to get better but was scoring drugs....then got more coke."

I didn't understand the need to announce this as a thread. Tyson has had nothing new or interesting to say for decades. Rogan's a cretin. You're not going to hear anything you haven't heard a hundred times over.

Listened to this on Saturday, I suspect most fans on here already know his stories etc, poor questions and same old stories I found this to be, not great. Only thing I learned was that he was becoming a cannabis kingpin!

Settle down mate. Several people like Rogan & it's Tyson so I'd argue its as worthy as a thread as most of the others on here. If you're not a fan don't click on it & move on, no need to get upset.

It's just me thinking aloud. Or typing aloud. I think I once started a thread about gloves colours, so don't take my critiques too seriously.
