Mike Tyson Remains Brutally Honest About the Egyptian and Greek Royals Who Married Their Sisters

Stories, tales, myths, and anecdotes, you name it, and ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ will crank it up in a jiffy. No wonder hordes join in to watch the latest episodes of Hotboxin, all ears on what Mike Tyson shares next. They go through a narrative since it arose from the smoked-filled studio of ‘Iron’ Mike. Stephen A Smith had barely left, and a rapper joined Tyson and Sebastian Joseph Day. Once over with initial drags, a ‘Back To Future’ à la Mike Tyson style took place. The former champion narrated a few intimate details of royal families from bygone eras.

The best part remains when he doles out history lessons with a new guest. Quite a few followers might know the lore and the characters. So twenty-three-year-old Michael Lamar White II, from Canton, Ohio, known to most fans as Trippie Redd, has been active in the rap scene since 2014. The SoundCloud rapper became famous after his debut album, ‘A Love Letter To You,’ especially its single ‘Love Scars,’ scaled the charts. In the show, he cited Lil Wayne and Drake as his favorites and the artists who greatly inspired him.   

So once upon a time…Mike Tyson dwells on the history

So Mike Tyson asked the rapper how he felt about his accomplishments. The latter started his story from the place where he was born, the city of Canton, Ohio. Curiosity got the better of the former champion, who asked whether the site hosts the Baseball Hall of Fame. Immediately, Redd and Joseph Day, a pro footballer, said that it was the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The rapper continued, it’s a small city where almost everyone knows each other. He said, “But yeah, everybody knows everybody there, you know, grow up and accidentally kiss your cousin.“

Smiling, Mike Tyson told how, in ancient times, siblings would marry so that money and property would remain within the family. Joseph Day said the Egyptians used to have such practices. Getting the picture, Redd said, “Oh, like Royal families.” Tyson continued, “The Greeks too, the Greeks too, yeah, and they all came out to be idiots.” Laughing, Joseph Day said that it was pretty obvious. The former champion then narrated how family members of the German Hapsburg dynasty started having protruding jaws.
