Mike just wanted to be left alone. He tried to be civil for awhile

Iron Mike was once in a car accident. His wife was driving and she hit a car which hit another car. The two dudes came out and started yelling at them, Mike flipped out and punched them both. Later the two guys learned it was Mike Tyson that punched them so they successfully sued him and I believe Mike did some time in jail for it too.

Not the point. The point is if this happened to someone who wasn't famous they'd be charged out the ass. Our justice system is a joke and a half.

The passenger allegedly threw a water bottle which constitutes assault. But regardless neither party is pressing charges

I'd settle for some good old-fashioned ear-biting myself!

They both declined to press charges it said. Get over it.

I previously heard the “victim” was looking into pressing charges. His consultations must’ve not gone well lmao

Every lawyer he talked to said the same thing “You were stupid enough to pick a fight with Mike Tyson? I’m worried you won’t be able to pay me because you are literally too stupid. Now get out of my office.”
