No. It was just a short interview with Mike and Jim Gray about the about the upcoming Kiltschko fight.

LOL No, but I did shoot some pics for Jim Gray in which they took turns biting each others ears. I've worked with with Mike for Showtime since the 90's. He's certainly had his surly moments, but in recent years he's always been very gracious and fun. He has a beautiful wife and daughter and really seems to have his life in order.

No doubt. He once told me that after he got some education in prison, he realized that he had always been overpaying at restaurants because he really didn't know how much money to leave. He said there are restaurants that he should be able to eat at free for the rest of his life because he overpaid so much. He is still a very charismatic guy and it's always a fun day when I get to work with him. His assistant mentioned that a new Corvette was parked out in front of his house. Mike didn't say anything but I saw him get up and walk out side. He came back a few minutes later and asked for the keys in a very serious manner. I laughed, but he didn't. He then forcefully demanded the keys....again. I didn't know what to say and he knew I was a bit rattled and then he started laughing. He was just screwing with me.

That's really good to hear. I watched a documentary on Tyson and he had a very difficult childhood and surrounded himself with the wrong people as an adult. Everyone deserves a chance to change, and it is good to hear he did. So many of these athletes end up very differently.

He really seems to understand that he has demons that could always resurface so he's trying very hard to do the right thing with his life. Gotta respect that.

Looks like his muscles went straight to his gut/stomach! I bet he can still punch pretty hard though. But Pink shorts?!!?

Good story glad he's got it together.

Yeah Mike went through cars lile water! I remember him trading in a Testarossa for 2 or 3 BMWs at Jaguar ClevelAnd!

That's good to hear as he was a tremendous talent, just could not keep the train on the tracks.

VETTE-NV

Yeah, it's not a flattering pic but he' still in great shape....works out every day. That hand shake of his feels like he could crush a piece of coal into a diamond.

Go tell him pink shorts are for nancy boys

VETTE-NV

YOU tell him.

I was talking to Z06NJ.... I'd never disrespect the champ like that. He can wear whatever the hell he wants,.

VETTE-NV

Got it. I think I did hear him say he was on his way to play tennis. Seriously.

I used to think that tat on his face was just way way over the top back in the day. Now it seems kinda tame compared to what you might see at Starbucks

Very nice love the color and the house

Cus D'Amato helped Tyson get his life together. Then D'Amato died and everything went to hell.

Dude, that's pretty damn cool and Mike is looking pretty good for all the schit that he's been through.

Wow that's amazing. Nothing but respect for the champ. And your GS is gorgeous!!
