Famous American rapper ‘Ice Cube’ was recently invited by boxing icon Mike Tyson to appear on his show. Both Tyson and the rapper were famous during their primes and shared a similarly aggressive, confident demeanor. A recent podcast broadcast featured Tyson acting inappropriately while his wife was also there in the recording studio. Ice Cube, co-host Matt Barnes, and Mike Tyson were watching a rap video as the episode of ‘Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson’ went on. A brief segment of it featured exotic dancers. Tyson said, “Wow,” as soon as the women showed on the screen.

A lot of times, Tyson’s wife, Lakiha ‘Kiki’ Spicer, is present in the studio while the veteran boxer is recording his podcasts. This time, Tyson forgot that his wife was there, and his immediate facial expression indicated that he quickly realized he shouldn’t have behaved in this manner. Even though it’s a very silly thing, Tyson’s fans like it when he unintentionally makes them chuckle.
However, his wife has played a major role in where he is today.
How Mike Tyson’s wife helped him grow as a person
When he was younger, ‘Iron Mike’ was a real ladies’ man. He was also someone who loved to live life to the fullest. He possessed everything, including pricey automobiles, lavish houses, and a golden bathtub. But later Tyson declared bankruptcy as a result of it.

But in 2009, following two disastrous marriages, he wed Spicer. And Kiki ended up being his lucky charm in life. Tyson gradually evolved as a person after his marriage. He began working out, and at age 56, he appears to be in excellent physical condition. He even started his own podcast, and he has since developed into a composed person.
He never hesitates to talk about his wife, and he once mentioned, “I don’t think she’s made that way to think about the power that she possess and she’s capable of doing. She lived her life as a humble woman and a wife and stuff, but she has no idea what kind of power she possess. She doesn’t even want the power, she’s probably afraid of it.”
