I don't try to intimidate anybody before a fight. That's nonsense. I intimidate people by hitting them.
Mike TysonMy objective was to hurt the other fighters. I wanted to hurt them. I wanted to be merciless. Man, I was a wild thing. It's kind of a drug, a rush.
Mike TysonI don't know that person anymore, that guy in '86, '87. I don't know that guy no more. I don't have no affinity for that guy no more. I have no affinity for the guy who said, 'I am the greatest fighter God produced.' I have no affinity for the guy who said he would try to push his [opponent's] nose bone up into his brain. I just don't know that guy. I don't know who he is. I don't know where he came from. I don't have no kind of connection with him no more.
Mike TysonIt doesnโt faze me what anyone says about me. It doesnโt matter what anyone says about me. Iโm a totally different entity to what other people think. Michael and Tyson are two different people. Iโm Tyson here.
