Mike Tyson is a family man through and through. He is either seen training hard in the gym or spotted cheering for his family members in their different ventures and career choices. But the former undisputed heavyweight champion is equally protective of them, and a rapper, Soja Boy, has been warned about this by netizens.
Tyson, 58, turned to his Instagram handle and uploaded a picture of his oldest daughter, Miki, to promote her new song. However, when Mike Tyson’s followers spotted Soja Boy, a Nigerian rapper whose real name is Usman Umar, in the comment section, they let him know about the consequences that might fall on him after such a transgression. So, what exactly happened?

Sharing his daughter Miki’s picture, ‘Iron Mike’ wrote, “My daughter @missmikityson ‘s new song. So proud. She’s an incredible writer and singer. Make sure you follow her page for more music.” Interestingly, Miki has gone through a transformative journey, as she has gone from being a plus-size model for Queen magazine to an independent singer. She released her latest single, ‘Love Me Again,’ on October 25, and the former world heavyweight champion was promoting the same.

However, Soja Boy left a comment on the post and asked, “Sir is she single? 😁” This didn’t sit well with the fans, who then blasted him and tried to make him aware of the man he was messing with.
Fans warn, ‘Don’t wake a sleeping lion’
What’s your perspective on:
Did Soja Boy just poke the bear by commenting on Mike Tyson's daughter's Instagram post?
Have an interesting take?
One fan advised the rapper to delete his account. They declared, “@officialsojaboy bro, just delete your account 🙏.” If Tyson had spotted the comment, the Nigerian rapper would have been in deep trouble, as Tyson has a reputation for calling out any indecent behavior he comes across.

Another user asked Tyson to take action against the move, which they thought was disrespectful. They commented, “@miketyson Don’t let this man get away w this disrespect… 😂” Tyson, who is seen sitting in the stands for Milan Tyson‘s tennis matches and now actively promoting Miki’s songs, might deem Soja Boy’s comment as disrespectful towards his family. Then Soja Boy will be in real trouble.
Someone believed the rapper had decided to choose death with his comment. They announced, “@officialsojaboy this man chose death.” Tyson, at 50-6, is one of the most vicious punchers in boxing history, with a penchant for knockouts. And the man has no qualms about picking a fight outside the ring either. A similar fate could fall on the rapper.
A comment had a similar tone and warned him of the coming violence. The comment read, “@officialsojaboy Damm, so you choose violence.” It referenced how Mike Tyson could meet and greet Soja Boy with punches instead of trying to talk it out with him.

Lastly, another fan theorized that the rapper must not be aware of Tyson’s exploits in the boxing world or his tumultuous life outside. They pointed out, “@officialsojaboy you must not know the goat ….😭😭😭😭.” Tyson became the youngest heavyweight champion in boxing history and did it in a flashy style and with devastating power. There have also been many accounts of him picking fights outside the ring with people who tried to test his patience.
