  1. Mike: "You know, your mother gives you liqueur and marijuana to sleep" Joe: "That never happened at my house"

  2.  @Ghosted37  In all honesty, it is kinda sad. He said that to Joe as if it were a common family norm.

  3.  @jackphilamore288  Mike got a crazy origin! It's like listening to a child speak, except you're liable to get your orbital bone crushed randomly haha.

  4.  @jakobdixon5270  Well, I grew up poor and lived in a shitty neighborhood until I was about 12-yrs-old. And there's a difference from being a representative of the lowest earning quintile and growing up under under certain parenting styles. Look, I'm not going to claim I know what was normal for you as a kid, but I can assure you that not all poor folks get their kids fucked up so they'll sleep. Poverty is systemic, but ignorance doesn't constantly align w being broke. Yes, poor folks tend to be less informed on basic shit and more likely to make reckless decisions, such as giving their children booze and pot to sleep.

  7.  Manny Santiago  Agreed! Out of all the psychosocial theories used to explain our personalities and behavioral markings, I've always been partial to Systems Theory. But social-nurturing theories don't explain entirely how we arrive at our adult selves. However, when merged with existential and psychoanalytical models we then have all the variables in place to expound on every influential aspect of human development. If Mike never met Cus D'Amato, maybe he doesn't even take boxing seriously? Cus was very father-like towards Mike and genuinly cared about his wellbeing. Mike adored him! According to the stories, Mike was bullied to no end as a young child. He would hide in the project hallways to avoid other kids. Occasionally, he was so scared that he'd stay hidden for 6 to 10 hours. Clearly, he was traumatized and it followed him into adulthood. With no one to protect him during those times, it set the stage for the cultivation of a monster. An environment that causes a child to feel afraid, angry, lonely and frustrated regularly will manifest eventually into antisocial behavior: the behavior of Mike Tyson in a nutshell. But the positive relationship w Cus affected him too. It was his caring and attention that gave Mike the confidence and drive to focus on boxing and not run the wheels off the track. As Mike stated, "All I wanted to do was please my mentor." Your examples are spot on -- I totally agree. Check out an illustration on systems theory. You'll find it fascinating.

  9. That shit drives me nuts too, especially when it happens more than once. One time? Okay, we all flake out sometimes, but more than one time is inexcusable. I'll look at people like WTF is wrong w you? It's extraordinarily rude and inconsiderate. Its somewhat excusable w young people, but if you're over 30 and can't understand the fundamental rules of social convention then you're an asshole.

  12.  @dariusmichael6167  Log on to Google Scholor if you don't have access to EBSCO. Read the studies that garnered negative analysis. It's not the greatest experience for everyone. I hope you aren't simply reading bias articles online and instead sifting through studies conducted by using the scientific method. I'll agree, DMT or ayahuasca experiences have incredible curing abilities different from various mood-related behavioral health diagnoses. But there's been some family groups who's symptoms were adversely exacerbated. The most consistent positive research I've seen was it's ability to cure PTST, especially in solders who witnessed combat. I tried it yrs ago. I was fucking insane. Most intense thank I've ever experienced by far. It didn't enlighten my though, at least not to my knowledge.

  13.  @treedillinger5801  Yeah, right after Joe responded, Mike touched his lip in disbelief and said, "Yeah, my mom was an alcoholic." I ain't gonna lie, that shit was fucked up. No wonder he was such a maniac. Poor bastard.

  14. @Dominik Klán,  Yep, the experience of being parented is different for everyone. My family was totally broke when I was young, but my parents were driven folks. My mother went to school and eventually became an RN and was the head nurse at a hospital unit. My dad upholstered furniture and eventually his business blew up. We moved to a nicer part of town and life changed radically for us. I'm 43 now and just finished my LMSW clinical (an LCSW now! -- took 10 fuckin yrs of school, field placements, licensing exam, and multiple yrs working on my clinical). I still have a few buddies that I see from back in the day, most of them are dead or in prison though, and the rest aren't doing well. My point, up until about 23-yrs-old I was NO DUFFERENT THAY ANY OF THEM. I was in Rikers 3 times, and accumulativly spent 5 yrs in the prison industrial complex in upstate NY. I truly believe that the only reason I made it out of that life was due to my parents not letting my run wild and laid down a foundation of morals and etiquette, so when I finally grew up I was able to transition out of the destructive antisocial mentality. Unfortunately, my friends parents didn't do that for them. I used to be so jealous that they could stay out later than me, not disaplined as much, etc. Now I'm grateful beyond words! My mom and dad saved my life. I'd probably be dead by now if not for them.

  16.  @MrSh4des  You haven't seen Mike almost put hands on interviewers before? Did you see when he debo'd Dana's seat on the plane haha? He's a loose cannon. He is anything but open. Clearly, you haven't seen Mike Tyson interviews. Joe just asked safe questions, period.

  22.  @kawacatooseeguzkiocaoindea7544  I think Joe would fuck him up. Joe trains all through the week, Mike gets uses an elliptical; plus, Joe's skill set is geared to fight, not box. Mike does still hit hard though, no doubt. Who knows, he could clip Joe, that's certainly possible.
