Former boxing champ Mike Tyson was trending earlier in the year after an incident on an airplane.
After being screwed with by a man sitting behind him, it was revealed that Tyson turned around and took matters into his own hands, literally and figuratively.
A viral video of the guy with a bloodied face hit the web, along with several videos of the man egging on Mike Tyson beforehand.

Mike Tyson has been slowly making his way back into the boxing sphere. After beating longtime rival Roy Jones Jr. in an exhibition match, Tyson showed some interest in taking on Legal Paul if the money is enough.
At the end of the day, Tyson knows that he probably shouldn’t be flying commercial given his status and popularity.
“I shouldn’t even be taking public planes,” he said. “A bodyguard and a f***ing yes man. What am I gonna do on a plane?”
