A Man, Who Is Either The Dumbest Person Alive Or Someone With A Death Wish, Tried To Punch Mike Tyson After His Fight With Roy Jones Jr. On Saturday Night
TMZ- Mike Tyson almost got into a second fight after stepping into the ring with Roy Jones Jr. -- because some wacko swung on him trying to prove something ... TMZ Sports has learned.
Sources familiar with the situation tell us ... Mike was leaving Staples Center Saturday night after his bout with Roy -- which was called as a draw -- and on the way out, he came across a small group of fans looking for autographs. When he walked over to do some signing, we're told a man in the crowd yelled out to Mike ... asking why he wouldn't let the guy fight him. Our sources say Mike jokingly responded, joking with the dude that it probably wouldn't end well for him.
Next thing you know, we're told the dude swung at Mike ... and then proceeded to reach into his waistband, as if trying to pull out a weapon. Our sources say Mike's team jumped in right away before things got ugly. We're told the guy took off -- and our sources also say some folks on Mike's team recognized him from a previous signing, where they say he also tried starting trouble.
Someone give Mike Tyson's security team a medal of honor because they saved someone's life on Saturday night. Not the guy they were hired to protect but the crazy motherfucker that tried to fight Mike Tyson. I don't care if that dude brought a knife, a gun, or a nuke to a fistfight. Fighting Mike Tyson fresh off a boxing match is suicide, Benny.
Iron Mike may have slowed down a bit due to his old age and plethora of substances running through his body. However, the man that was able to to do this to professional fighters with gloves on is still deep down in that man's soul and I imagine he can pop out whenever he senses he is in danger like when The Hulk takes the wheel from Bruce Banner.
Some mamaluke pulling out a weapon on the one-time Baddest Man on the Planet, which is a Hall of Fame great nickname, fresh off him turning Roy Jones Jr's insides into tenderized filet mignon would have ended one way in exactly one second (Blogger's Rendition):
So shout out to Tyson's team or security or whatever for preventing their guy from becoming a boxing Jack Kevorkian for this fan.
