Bill Maher Gives 55-Year-Old Mike Tyson A Brutal Reality Check With Sylvester Stallone And Arnold Schwarzenegger Comparisons

Mike Tyson, the world-famous boxer, has always done things differently. The 55-year-old is distinguished from the rest of the world by his attitude, curiosity for knowledge, and a range of other qualities. Mike Tyson spilled the beans on an array of subjects in a recent episode of the podcast, Club Random With Bill Maher.

As the episode progressed, Maher mentioned that it is a bit tough to fight at the age of 55. He stated, “At 55 you do not have the wind to go around the ring like a boxer in his prime does. You’re also more brittle than you are at 25.” 

To which Mike Tyson replied, “Listen, you know why you believe all the stuff you said? You said you’re brittle, could you believe that? I have to live my life differently in that perspective, but I don’t think that I’m brittle.”

Maher further mentioned, “I saw this movie with Stallone and Schwarzenegger, that they made recently. I mean they’re both punching 70 in the mouth, right. And like it’s some escape from prison movie and they’re fu**king hitting each other with lead pipes. I’m like, you guys are 68. You gotta acknowledge that time, you know. It’s a river. It flows Mike, it doesn’t stop flowing,” Maher added.

“It doesn’t have to stop flowing. But maybe you don’t have to flow with it,” Tyson replied. 

The different way of living of Mike Tyson 

‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ has a unique perspective on life, and his fans are well aware of it. He even has several tattoos on his body, each of which has a deep or significant meaning. Furthermore, the boxer is fascinated by animals. His fondness for birds is well known, and his first brawl was also over a pigeon.

Iron Mike made a cameo appearance in the film ‘The Hangover‘, in which Tyson’s tiger is stolen. The boxer had three pet tigers in his home, and it wasn’t only for the movie. Domesticating the tigers in the mansion was too dangerous, so the superstar had to send them away to a sanctuary.
