Mike Tyson's Oprah interview was absolutely amazing. If you missed it, you can watch it in it's entirety above. Mike looks like he has gained an incredible amount of perspective over the years, and although he still seems a little off, it's like he's a completely different person from the guy he was a few years ago.

If you have a few minutes, watch the interview, and give your thoughts on the new Tyson.

7	Mike has always been, complex, conflicted, troubled, tragic and smarter than his public persona might suggest. He is scarred on a very deep level and people I know, who knew him growing up believe he was molested during his 1st stint in Juvenile Detention and saw he 1st version of 'Iron Mike' emerge soon after as a defense mechanism. I hope he is coming to a better place in his life.

I did watch the interview in it's entirety on Oprah (yes I admit it) and was impressed at the level of honesty in his answers. Yes, he roughed up first wife, whatsername. No, he wasn't sorry for the ear bite. He adores women and wants to put them on a pedestal and worship them, then dominate them completely in a sexual fashion. He is still "not all there" in my opinion, but he says he has a new perspective on life and I can respect him for that. And yes, the loss of a child can change a person's life. It was one of the few interviews Oprah has done I'll remember for a long long time.

2	(Edited by pizzlewizzle) When are you going on Rome to talk like that? Don't be a hater. I don't gotta answer to what I rate. Who are you, that I owe you an explaination for anything? Are you off your meds?

2	Iron Mike is my favorite boxer of all time! To this day I still haven't been able to beat him in Mike Tyson's Punch Out on the old school Nintendo.

4	Don't worry about pizzlewizzle, he's the biggest dope I've ran into on here, and that's saying something. He PQ's just about everything and never has a legitimate thought.

Are you off your meds? I know what I am. Are you glad his daughter died, as a way of paying him back for raping someone? That's the impression I get. Your avatar offends me. Are you exploiting women? That's rape.

1	You really are glad that something horrible happened to him, huh? You see it as justice right? You think he deserved to have this happen to him because of what he did in the past right? That's spiteful.

No. Wordsmith is off his meds. And I know you, Dumpsterdive6. Your the guy with no sense of sarcasm. I have some legitimate thoughts about you! And Tebow did play huh? Just like Aikman.

The rape wasn't discussed specifically. He referred to his time in jail, but wasn't specific about it. From what I remember, he talked more about how the time in jail changed his perspective on life and changed how her represented himself as a boxer. He did say in many cases he did or said what was expected of him, but it wasn't sincere or heartfelt. I respect him for being honest, but I don't believe he is a "good" person.

There's just something that still isn't believable about this. Come on, has everyone forgotten what a monster this guy is? Yeah, he can go on Oprah and put on a show, and you can't help but feel sorry for any father who loses a child, but Mike Tyson is still Mike Tyson, he isn't the soft spoken, polite figure we saw on Oprah. For a further look at my take, check out my blog, Athletes Behaving Badly. Maybe it will help to remind a few people of the kind of person that Tyson made himself into. I welcome comments and discussion, and am looking forward to his reappearance with Holyfield on Friday.
