then and then you know when I was 12 I met my friend my best friend who's from Howard houses I told you about yeah yeah how is my my neighborhood yeah grounds that said the PA le learn the box did yeah so in 1983 and you know what remember was like I mean you were probably 15 16 I used to go out to Brownsville I was 12 12 year old white dude and I'd go play ball and Howard to play for the Brownsville jets with Jocko and they said and we'll be free without that world without them well I was out there I Williams you're the eyes of my guy a wolf and those guys guys that do you hammer and all these guys from Howard and but I was a kid I was a [ __ ] you know 12 and you know Mike knows what it was like I did but I wasn't involved in I was a kid that's what I wanted to say how did you get out there cuz if any white guy out there he's a dangerous person what were you doing you know we out there first so I wasn't in when you're 12 12 years old and like I knew everybody in Howard so I know shred is the [ __ ] trip when you think think about it and it just when the trip you know this it was it was crazy because at that time I remember in Spring Break of 83 I was out there playing ball my friends and there would be gunshots and I would literally like oh [ __ ] and my friends would laugh because they were so accustomed to it and when I look back and you think about in America and Brooklyn the fact that little kids would be get accustomed and gunshots like they're not I remember you know when you started when I started hearing your name Brownsville Mike Tyson from Brownsville Kid Dynamite and Sports Illustrated and seeing you on ESPN like you know there's so much people that came from Brownsville from the ballplayers will be free to - pearl - you know Jimmy Smith's - Otis Otis Wilson of that the Bears and this little this little [ __ ] neighborhood and you know and for me being around that at that time I was exposed to so much [ __ ] and it's a good thing you know because it opened my eyes and made me realize it's not just the East Side of Manhattan and so is it was a dope up ring but it was all basketball and hip-hop and chasing girls you know like I wasn't a treatment for the dangerous place dangerous [ __ ] place dangerous [ __ ] place but I was always you know looked after and [ __ ] cuz I was in a charm a god you think I don't care what color you they got you you and they got you got you know word date they had me and like [ __ ] were like yo this is our guy no [ __ ] once they say that you good you end this up man right yeah yeah so that's what I grew up in New York City and and and you know is all I had hoop dreams I wanted to be an NBA player I wanted to be a professional basketball player but I my hoop dreams turn into you know hoop nightmares how did you flip oh cause death what's been your relationship with hip-hop hanging around those guys and browns yeah stuff and the radio you know and in the radio like hip-hop was you know my father worked at he was the general manager of WK to you disco 92 with Paco and Roscoe and and and before this was a the first station in New York City to play disco and before they play disco they played mellow rock this is like 77 78 79 and then 79 he came home and he said you know stations going to disc on nine he just was telling me about it he started playing all disco in the station went from the bottom of the ratings to the top but that same year he brought home a record he brought him a promotional copy of rapper's delight' by a Sugar Hill Gang and he said this is rap music it's gonna be a real thing and [ __ ] I [ __ ] would get all the records and then being out in the streets playing ball and listening to BLS and kiss and [ __ ] like that I just wasn't ready ki Crocker breaking sheet rock afraid you better learn yeah and then that [ __ ] was just you know it's just around me so it was just so organic thing and I fell in love with hip-hop the music and then later on you know like going to the clubs in the Latin Quarter is Latin Quarter the tunnel yeah but black quarters in Union Square and all that [ __ ] was [ __ ] was it on you in 14 years where my uncle met with the matter who were you going here before you were Mike Tyson where you going into Rob [ __ ] and I never listen this is the deal right I had just stopped doing the robbing stuff I just met customer I was starting to hang out in the clubs again and stuff just like 86 no this is like what what what is it 81 ok ok I will go back and visit and stuff and man in the clubs was just crazy they're in a misfit zoning the missus went to hip hop's if he wasn't admit that you wouldn't be there it was just a place that people said you were that the hip-hop placement while me but be careful in there it was wild in the clubs you know you would see you I saw this with my own eyes in 86 in Union Square girls get their [ __ ] earring snatch you know dudes getting night and and you you know I mean in a club like I'm like and I'm like open Rob snatching change you know take him on [ __ ] jackets and and and it was it was in the club I was in Latin quarters I I never forgot this it was either 86 or 87 in in land quarters were infamously Plaxico Burress people would go out the Latin Quarter than any more guy but Latin quarters it's like a place that I guess it was around in the 50s it's been around but I remember being in land quarters standing next to the late Scott lorac from bdp I see my favorite yeah yes and and he asked me to come to the thing maybe around man I think when they come to the video video any no wasn't anything I was just - no I know anything about videos affected I ain't know it was a but there and and and I there was a fight broker there's always fights but I remember it was just a wintertime I'm Skyler rock is right here and I were like leaning on the thing there's a fight you're not really paying attention because they would get broken up and it'd be little skirmishes but this was a big fight that was happening over there and these are grown men I'm sixteen nine you know they didn't serve the reason why they let kids in is cuz they didn't serve alcohol at the bar I realized this later so so uh uh dude reaches into his his his uh his I think it was like a sheepskin or as a bubble goose and pulls out a sword in the club not a little [ __ ] box cutter or sword at it yo I ran down the stairs and and and to leave probably right where Plaxico Burress shot himself and then a somebody else from behind me breaks a bottle over somebody in the glass jars on me and I'm like fine I'm going to get my jacket from the jacket coat I say [ __ ] my jacket I go down the stairs and I swear this is all true and you there was a glass window and and a dad while I'm going down the stairs to the glass window I see a guy I see this oh oh Times Square I mean in Union like in times crisis in like 11 and I go into the corner me and this girl we're just like waiting for this [ __ ] to stop and then it just stopped got my jacket and a couple weeks later I was back Atlanta corners like it was like it was nothing but it takes to see that [ __ ] when you think about like the danger that was going on when you're 16 17 you're so [ __ ] dumb and I wasn't a tough guy was a round tough guy yeah but listen could take something that adrenaline is addicting you want to go back to that Club beautiful chick she never seen before them hot latino chillin out and my god what the first time I saw Mike Tyson you hadn't won the Bell yet you had been on the cover of kid dying kid kid Kid Dynamite you had been the cover of Sports Illustrated but I remember I saw you walking down the deuce in a red feel odd jumpsuit and you I guess you had gotten cut sparring

I wanted to be I loved movies and when I realized you know I wasn't gonna be a basketball player I started doing comedy when I was 19 this is 1989 and then when I started doing come I was okay I was I was okay I could talk [ __ ] I could [ __ ] around but then the first time I ever read a scene like like sides from a scene like a scene like it came more natural than ever playing basketball then doing comedy and I was like this is what I'm gonna do like I knew what was the it it was you know there was a show for HBO that never went but but reading the sides like it was like literally like a fish to water like basketball never came as easy yeah nothing nothing ever came as easy like I was like I'm gonna do this and and and and IA just was I was like a comfort doing it and and then I fortunately got good brakes I got good brakes because I I know I could do it but then it's about the opportunities and you know and if you know and I got I got a good break when I was young and and you know been rockin ever since and love doing it still and you know like I love I don't like the business of it nobody likes the business of anything man the objective is him the one in you to lose yeah the business is [ __ ] it's show business it should be called business show cuz cuz we're without the business there's no [ __ ] show but the actual doing of it to doing it and and and and the performing and the artistry of it like I still get elation from doing it and I love doing it it's awesome man you've always been one of my favorite personalities - I remember listen don't you remember that I had a fight one day I don't know where with the fight in Tennessee I think jay-z and them have some shooting you as hosting for them yeah yeah when you fought the [ __ ] what was the boo they would dip the black snake black [ __ ] you mean the black rhino the black rhino and and jay-z was ho doing a show for it for Showtime a concert this is like 2001 2002 something like that and and and it was gonna be a concert then we were gonna go right to the fight and I was I was hosting it with jay-z's Rockefeller Dame - beanie sigel freeway and all him and I was the host and I was like the liaison to get from you know I got Jay on stage and then afterwards like all right we're heading right over to the to the fight we had a police escort and it's my first time seeing notice - my second time seeing him like maybe it's the first time seen a Mike Tyson fight was the McNeeley fight after this or before - flooded this is before McNeely after it okay so I was at the McNeely fight so I go to these [ __ ] 87 second fights you know where you're all height to [ __ ] and it's like it's over before you know so so we do the show we get a police escort over to the arena I sit right and [ __ ] literally where my hands are on the ring like literally ringside like I'm like this mic comes out buh-buh-buh-buh-buh the whole thing's [ __ ] over it wasn't even as long as a jay-z song and it was like I go to see these [ __ ] fights and you know but I got to see Mike fight and and you knows you know you look back on it it's the [ __ ] it was it was a dope-ass a dope-ass don't pass time I don't pass memory to have that you know in the history of it especially it also being a boxing fan like i grew up such a fan of boxing and and and and such a fan of the ABC fights such a fan of all that stuff Saturday fight yeah and and you know and then like when the guys they were like in the morning afternoon time you didn't even like it was like you come on and and you you know you're your other guy like I remember watching Mark breelan and air and Pryor boom boom like that fight where that cop that was on on on on ABC fine Sookie that was during the day fight - they both were fight banging 15 rounds there bang that's the best one of the reason they change it to 12 rounds go most of the death happens after the 12th round around 40 around but the fights were big so like you know being around it and my father loved fight fighting and I used to go to the fights but every fight that I've gone to every boxing match that I've gone to live has been a whack fight if it was a Mike's fight I seen a couple of [ __ ] um fight so my man my man from Philly Bernard Hopkins live always bad fights or boring fights I've never been to a like I've never been to a fight fight like even like the Riddick the Riddick Holyfield fights like I was never at good fight i watch them on TV but I've never seen like a great boxing match alive man [ __ ] [ __ ] Chavez with the Beast back in the day it's cool you see the chair [ __ ] Aaron Pryor yeah look at the grave god we will kill you um I saw him when they hit this guy in the liver the liver the spleen there boom the guy started just [ __ ] on himself going to fight yeah Buster stool like just as a fan forget the business of it cuz I'm gay you know I like you're such a fan or you were I don't know if you still are as much and you know boxing so well but just as a fan to the fan in you are you sad at the state of boxing today just just as a fan you know what this is what I have to say I'm sad at the state of the promotion of boxing there's a couple of good friends um there's some arrows fences out there this Giovanni Davis and Plus you know they got the great [ __ ] um liam lomachenko AHA right those guys should be put up on promoted more people should know they are these guys are really splendid fighters and they will make people go back and see boxes and people knew who they were do you think that do you think that the fact that like um the clips go guys and and and and Linux started it because he was extra big but do you think that these guys being like 6 9 Rock'em Sock'em robot [ __ ] has taken away from the heavyweight did the heavyweight division because like in your prime your 220 yeah your 510 217 these guys I mean whether you could beat them or not it's just like why is it six foot nine 280 pound guy fighting a 217 pound and this is the heavy weight this is [ __ ] like like to me it's like wouldn't like when you're watching to six foot nine guys just boom boom boom they could barely [ __ ] move uh whether they did good on that Klitschko deal or not what it does not interest like Ali was six three to twenty Earnie Shavers has weren't big guys like I feel like there should be a loose vision for that weight like between 200 to 40 no this is the reason you can't do that know why it's interesting because they're still guys that 200 pounds that Kanaka guys is 260 but what if you get in the Wondrich I can't knock the best 260 guy out it depends it depends on the fighter depending on the world the determination of the fight scene just being a a big fighter it doesn't mean anything and you've seen that these things you big as good but the guys will and determination he can beat you I know but I'm saying like even it like I would like but but as a division like the best of the best is there's a certain thing but like I'm saying like you know like the as a whole the heavyweight division you notice the [ __ ] that you should be the the biggest star in the world whoever it was if it was you if it was Buster Douglas it was Ali Ken Norton going back that was the guy and now it's like who's a heavyweight champion it so it's Tyson Fury D aren't they oh wait what - [ __ ] weak yeah it's just eventually in time they don't have to take it I get that together and all these guys on have to fight one day I guess I hope so downright yeah I just miss I just miss it I miss it cuz you know I like UFC but I just missed though that golden era of it should be one champion and he should be a fifth I should be she won chairman he fights everybody from every division for me his organization yeah yeah I miss it because I love it like you know I love the the sport I love the sport and I have such admiration for it and it's just not the same you know whatever no man it's interesting [ __ ] though you know what you know what I think is dope Mike is that I call myself the New Balance King but the fact that you [ __ ] with that New Balance dad sneakers 17 size size is 14 1440 Mike I it's it's Larry David Bernie Sanders Woody Allen every other every other old Jew and Mike Tyson's much my feet of luck you got these are the best it's often you need a bath bro can't live without those 1440 yeah Jesus Christ [ __ ] Mike I'm can you hook up hook up yes cuz I was like Mike Mike is rocking the dad shoes now like I love that about that I love that about my family I can't wear any of the shoes I can't wear flat shoes I can't wear any of that fly [ __ ] anything I used to fight without my socks on stuff just barefoot I got my um my feet cut off [ __ ] what happens when they get black and hard on the couch or something like that out yet but my toes blew up looking at toenails blue you got [ __ ] up feet Mike yeah my feet will scare you man my feet are like Eagles my toenails many stitches okay what else Mike you [ __ ] with the housewives at [ __ ] I love the housewife where are you at right now I'm your Bravo [ __ ] listen to no one I do I must get on with the Love & Hip Hop but the housewives really with the Atlanta housewives I like the Real Housewives of Atlanta yeah like they're bummed out right oh yeah trip man and and real love and hip hop it I'm just like wow there is no [ __ ] there's no shame in the game I love and hip hop and and the house ours like they just they just they just go like I guess you get comfortable around the camera cuz some people say that shit's fake I'm like that ain't [ __ ] real that listen they may tell them you got to spice it up a little make a little bit more violent something get more drunk well I think they say why don't go go talk to her about that thing that really bothers you because you Meryl Streep and and Marlon Brando on their best day they weren't as good as these watch it all [ __ ] now what the reruns could be caught them I'm glad you guys are you [ __ ] with that cuz I'm all about it myself when I was young I might win out one of the girls what did you some of those you know some of those Housewives right you I respected but when you watch it because I do like to me they're like stars it's like so proud it starts to me to know [ __ ] dude the [ __ ] hip-hop chicks and the guys I'm hit all those guys it's entertainment to me it's like soap opera for men and [ __ ] completely I love it with no shame in my real men watch Real Housewives oh oh listen my man Joe for one [ __ ] up and locked up in Jersey guys [ __ ] up yeah yeah yeah juicy Joe yeah we gotta get you out of this freak show three years ago three [ __ ] juicy Joe you know what Mike what do you think of this uh this

he's a new young actor he's not like some big I mean it's no disrespect he's like he's an up-and-coming actor that's it that's it man what he did set people back I agree you know man I'm nothing could be from a black perspective to by me talking about people being beat down it's dangerous fondling yeah you shoulda did that and listen I'm I'm no one to judge members god damn yeah I think you do it you wouldn't the [ __ ] are you doing what the [ __ ] are you doing dude like dude do something that sort of cherry juice do something what the [ __ ] are you doing yeah wait he's gonna go a hole that

go first yeah that's a real [ __ ] story real [ __ ] story and then I remember it and then this is when when you said started acting in 1989 I called my father told him what happened told him who I was with and cuz I hadn't called him all night he said I was worried about you and I told him what happened he so I'm glad your ID cuz I'm getting to the point where I'm scared the next phone call I'm gonna get is dirt you got a bullet in you oh no and that was the end of my that was I went to Los Angeles a couple months later and I was done cuz my father said that to me I was like that's not happening to me so tell me tell me Michael right hanging around of people Browns and little blacks and stuff right how do you how do you how do you explain your family because listen sometimes I have to explain to people what they mean when they call each other [ __ ] you know I mean I have to explain to people what the [ __ ] they mean if I'm with some white people around go friendly and thank you saying [ __ ] they get intense right what do they mean why are they calling each other [ __ ] Mike I said no [ __ ] like a [ __ ] [ __ ] like person a guy a girl a [ __ ] dude bro whatever you have to explain it you know it's using certain context you know you got no one to use it I don't know if you use it with the attitudes depending how you use it you know smile when you say in the hole some change it the way you say it Martin for me Mom I remember my for me to even explain to somebody it's bugged out yeah it's like a it's like a person a white Caucasian like a person you know I mean that sounds crazy but that's just what it like Browns that I've had people explain big white Caucasian [ __ ] where did this and that yeah yeah uh when I was a kid I like what the fur like I was just when you're young you don't think so much but when when my dudes used to be in my were kids in Miami at my apartment I remember one time we were watching a game [ __ ] was me and my two friends and and this and that and this and that's the rules probably this big and this is because we're kids these are two black kids and me like we had grown up like that that's how we spoke and and my father burst in the door I would are you guys saying whatever it is I don't want any he was confused like why and then and then [ __ ] him in and you know he was like you guys either stop or get the [ __ ] out of my house and my father always remembered that felt like being down south soon with him he don't know what the [ __ ] is going on my father was like amazing Jewish teams and what the [ __ ] is season seven where you get like you guys are laughing it sounds like you having the time of your life but yesterday but but having it you know one of the things that like now where we are and everybody's like the peace eNOS and people of color and and people you know and and all this stuff that people have one of the things that really bothers me is that the the the over did like the white guilt is at an all-time high and a lot of to me the white guilt comes from because some white people and some black people we're both we're both guilty of it but I'll just speak for my people go for it they don't know physically know intimately know any black people they look at black people like there's this foreign kind of people like they have to be instead of like people are people and there's some black people that don't [ __ ] know intimately and I'm saying not saying sucker I'm saying intimately like they have any friendship they've never been to a black person's house and we don't know each other so this is where these stereotypes and and these dis dis dis stuff comes in and you start looking at people like it's something you see on Instagram or something you see on blackish or something you see or in a rap video or something you see on the Real Housewives because you don't know people and there's [ __ ] up white people there's [ __ ] up black people there's [ __ ] up Jewish people that's [ __ ] up Chinese people we're all foot we're all the same and that's one of the things like cool that I grew up like I know you know being being exposed to black people being exposed to [ __ ] in in in in 1560s New York Avenue in the in the stairwell like I'm like yo this is it does something like you it just is what it is and that's the blessing I got from hanging around all that [ __ ] and you know they do the cursors get in my ear bit off ya [ __ ] bit my [ __ ] ear mic can't we fight they're looping he knows no ruthless to fight yeah that caught me off guard that caught me [ __ ] off guard that caught me [ __ ] off guard your ear bit off in a fight you have to understand listen we frighten people in the street when there's a possibility you might seem but the possibility we never gonna see these people again right so you don't want to be the fact you ain't gonna see this guy again and he left you with all this [ __ ] and what is it over this is literally over nothing no money no girls nothing or so stump if you looked at me wrong literally what are you looking at and the next thing you know they're throwing rocks and my [ __ ] ears bit and my friends are like laughing at me and you know heaven could have anything could happen yeah I could agree respect is a big thing in the hood yeah you know I mean any hood black white oriental is that such a big thing yeah how long we been going we're rocking we've been rocking you're gonna keep us going for a while the you don't stop strap you're the man dude listen true romance man was that day

who's your director you want to work good Scorsese yeah Quinn Tarantino though those are the guys that I talk to these guys I'm trying to get I'm working it's kinda you know it's the right they know me I know them it's gotta be the right thing at the right time where they see it and I see it and and it'll happen you know and it's so Len I'm a [ __ ] fan oh I love those [ __ ] Scorsese's my [ __ ] dude yeah I've you know it just has always well that's my fellas casino forget it Raging Bull all right dear oh my god Raging Bull is so good Mike talk about Jake just as a fighter because I know you you know all this talk about Jake LaMotta yeah determined fighter would determine fight a very hard fighter beat strong-willed determined hunt is hard to be as a [ __ ] rock hard like hitting this [ __ ] wall you know what I mean had that low style yeah but he was he didn't get hit as much people thought he did everybody got hit more than he did he was real smart you know Sugar Ray Robinson they were beautiful fights they would go at it oh they're rivals a puncher versus oh like the boxer versatile puncher right yeah but they were punch each other out they would go for it man dance drink fight you know what I call I call myself - Jake LaMotta podcaster because you could because you know I say I'm gonna take you 15 rounds into the deal the deep water like Jake he's like thank you the 15 like I'm the champion for me I talk [ __ ] so I call myself the [ __ ] did the champion of [ __ ] talking and I'm gonna take you 15 rounds into the deep waters the Jake LaMotta of podcasting right that's one thing about our leaders file he was so tough to beat right cuz I believe this is one thing you have to realize when you're going to fight Ali the first thing yeah this is just the first thing you sympathize you have great boxing skills you punch all you got great determination before all that stuff you have to have a program in your [ __ ] mind and in your heart I'm going 15 rounds okay cuz I'm not knocking this guy out that's it yeah you gotta prepare to go 15 [ __ ] Russia this guy's going nowhere nowhere no he's gonna you better prepare to go 15 rounds 15:20 would Harlan [ __ ] yeah y'all hate you then and box no interesting when you lose them at the 15 and 20 round fight really the guy lost some exhaustion can you imagine 20 [ __ ] around awesome exhaust yeah 20 fun pick your arms up 20 rounds of boxing with bare knuckles and [ __ ] and this is what I thought this I said well listen it was 20 40 rounds back then those guys probably for in slow motion to keep themselves just able to go to distance and if I don't do one punch of 500 around he's got the fighting full [ __ ] speed ahead 36 that's [ __ ] crazy tremendous shape it's all psychological they're in tremendous shape unbelievable knockdown he gets back up the fortieth rounds on bully gets back down the 28th and he come back and knock the guy down in the 40s round 5 that's some collar [ __ ] that's savage [ __ ] I told you I started doing stand-up comedy when I was 19 but you know what it is now because you you did the show even though that but like you would riff off sometimes we had unusual a sudden you I never seen anyone do that cuz I seen you do the show three times it's different man do you understand who can mean that's a different month that's it's a different thing and I started back doing it it's and so instrument as deep right there you know you got expect to make these guys laugh talking to yourself right yeah come to laugh yeah at least with a one-man show like it's a script and you could always revert back to the script and you could go well I can make them laugh I can make them cry comedy clubs they come for one reason to laugh yeah they [ __ ] come out that's like saying I'm gonna go to the tennis that go to play tennis I'm going to play tennis I'm going to the comedy club I expect to laugh [ __ ] so that depth that I keep that in consideration when I'm up there [ __ ] around sometimes because I'm like they paid to see a show yeah and that coming some some of these comedians really a bitter kind of people if they're there they [ __ ] they flunk before and every people boo and yes before they always gotta be on top of their game and imagine like you said being a person who's talking to themselves like that's their psyche that's why comedians are [ __ ] weirdos in real life have been kind of dog yeah a dark and and and narcissistic and you know so so I like it I'd be not this is God for this kind of game like any kind of competition like football yet that that belief that your God kind of you know I mean you know is another thing Mike I just wanted to throw this out you talked about the podcast I I said this last week I said on the on
