A video of former World Heavyweight Boxing champion, Mike Tyson, repeatedly punching a passenger on a plane has gone viral on social media. According to details, Tyson delivered lusty blows after being irritated by the person’s repeated attempts to talk to him.
According to eyewitnesses, the person was repeatedly talking in Tyson’s ear and refused to back down despite being told multiple times to do so. Initially, Iron Mike ignored the passenger and was friendly towards him but lost his cool as the time went on.
The eyewitness revealed, “The passenger was extremely intoxicated and would not stop provoking him [Tyson]. Tyson had enough of the guy behind him talking in his ear and told him to chill. When the guy didn’t, Tyson started to throw several punches at the man’s face.”
The video footage shows Tyson leaning over the back of his seat and repeatedly delivering right hooks to the passenger. The passenger was left with cuts on his forehead as Tyson walked off the plane soon after.
