Mike Tyson called winning the WBC title after prison the most pleasant moment
Former world heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson, in an interview with the YouTube channel Fight Hub TV, called the most pleasant moment in his career.
The ex-athlete admitted that he was most pleased to win the World Boxing Council (WBC) heavyweight title after being released from prison. “Prison and all that, and then you come out and become the richest athlete in the world,” he said.
On March 7, it became known that Tyson would fight against blogger Jake Paul. The fight will take place at the A&T Stadium in Arlington, America, on July 20.
In 1992, Tyson was sentenced to three years for the rape of Miss Black America winner Desiree Washington. In 1996, he defeated Frank Bruno to become the WBC heavyweight champion. In total, Tyson had 58 fights, in which he won 50 victories and suffered 6 defeats. Two more fights with his participation were declared invalid.
