In a recent interview with YouTuber Jake Ducey, Mike talked about emotional relief, change, and love. In retrospect, he sincerely acknowledged the impact his wife has had on his character. When asked how he got rid of his anger, Mike thoughtfully considered his marriage with his wife a remedy. However, there is still one thing that the former world champion believes a man could never get from a woman.

It is the love of a mother Tyson feels one cannot ever find in a heterosexual relationship with a woman. “No matter how much she loves you, she can never give you your mother’s love.” “No one’s capable of giving you that because it’s your mother,” he stressed.

In his opinion, some people look for their mother’s love in the women they fall in love with. Unfortunately, things just do not work that way.
