Mike Tyson reveals he cried before every fight due to inner struggles

Mike Tyson has shared that he cried before every fight during his boxing career. In a podcast with William Shatner, he explained that these tears stemmed from his inner struggles and the persona he had to adopt in the ring. Tyson, now 58, is preparing for a professional comeback against Jake Paul after nearly two decades away from competitive boxing. His last professional fight was in 2005, but he returned for an exhibition match in 2020. As he gets ready for the November 15 bout, Tyson discussed how easily he can access his aggressive side. He noted that recalling his past experiences, including being bullied, helps him tap into that fiercer persona.
