Hey so for those of you who don’t know me, I am a huge Mike Tyson fan, not so much a fan of his boxing, just of him.  Anyway, so anytime there is new news about him I feel compelled to put any current blog posts on hold and post it.

So basically Tyson is getting his own reality tv show on Animal Planet called “Taking on Tyson” about racing pigeons.  One thing a lot of people don’t realize about Mike is he loves pigeons, he’s raised them his whole life, and has been known to kiss them on occasion.

you are free, bird, be gone.

And if you’ve learned anything from The Hangover its that you do not fuck with Mike Tyson’s animals.  Just check what he did to the sanitation man who fucked with his pigeon Julius’s cage.

“One morning I woke up and found my favorite pigeon, Julius, had died I was devastated and was gonna use his crate as my stickball bat to honor him. I left the crate on my stoop and went in to get something and I returned to see the sanitation man put the crate into the crusher. I rushed him and caught him flush on the temple with a titanic right hand he was out cold, convulsing on the floor like an infantile retard.”

    There was also that time when he was 9 and a 15 year old gang member came up to Tyson when he was playing with his pet pigeons and took one of them off him, Mike begged him to give it back but he refused then slowly started turning the pigeons head until it snapped off. Tyson flipped the fuck out and pummeled him. Word got around about Tyson beating up a respected gang member, and at age 9 he became known and respected in Brownsville.
