I'm the biggest fighter in the history of the sport. If you don't believe it, check the cash register.
Mike TysonI try my best to learn from other people's mistakes. I have a lot of respect for people who can change.
Mike TysonMy life's not tragic at all. How many guys do you know who are bankrupt and just bought a $3 million house and are getting ready to get $6 million more?

Mike TysonOne minute I'm robbing a dope house. Next minute I'm the youngest heavyweight champion of the world. I'm only 20, 19, with a lot of money. Who am I? What am I? I don't even know who I am.
