Who is Mike Tyson’s Brother?

The boxing fraternity is rightly aware of who Mike Tyson is and what he has done for the sport of boxing. From his first fight in 1985 to his last in 2005, Tyson saw a steep rise in his popularity, and no one prior to him reached stardom like that.

Moreover, Tyson himself didn’t come to this side of combat sports for fame. Boxing was something he loved doing and there was no stopping for him once he had decided to do involve himself in boxing.

Tyson was made for this and every time he hit the right chord to connect with a gigantic fan base. Also, this is one of the reasons why he’s still an active name in the fight game and fans love to see him making statements even today.
