Mike Tyson’s Airplane Victim Could Make $1 Million as Per 7 ft Lakers Legend Shaquille O’Neal

Boxing legend Mike Tyson has been in the headlines for the wrong reasons recently. In April end, Mike Tyson had an ugly altercation with a passenger on the plane. Mike Tyson seemed to lose his cool on a plane on Wednesday night as he repeatedly punched a man in the face after the guy had apparently annoyed him.

A witness on the plane said that as he and his friend were boarding Tyson’s flight, the boxing legend was initially cool with them and the other passengers. But it was after a little while that something the other friend did that “pi*sed” Mike off and he threw his hands.

The friend of the guy who got beaten said that Mike took a selfie with him and then was patient with his overly excited buddy, who kept trying to talk to the 55-year-old fighter as he sat behind him.

Eventually, though, Tyson had enough of the guy behind him talking in his ear off and told him to chill. When the guy didn’t, that’s when Tyson started to throw several punches at the man’s face.

Shaquille O’Neal claims that surprisingly the victim could earn probably a million now

Shaq in his podcast, discussed what happened on the plane and how there may be some silver lining for the guy who got his “reward” for annoying, misbehaving, and messing with Mike Tyson. Messing with Mike Tyson, of all people!

Shaq said, “Well look you know what’s crazy? He [the guy] about to make a million dollars doing interviews on this. Watch, watch! And if you all put him on ET, I’ll boycott y’all in 10 minutes.”

He continued, “First of all let’s say it correctly, Mike did not beat him up, Mike just defended himself. The guy was messing with him, heckling and then the guy threw water on him which is assault. Mike had to defend himself. — See now, Tyson is much nicer than I am. I would’ve told that dude right there, turn that camera off. And I’d have to touch him up.”

Shaq also said how he understood what made Tyson take that action and he probably would’ve done worse. The guy apparently misbehaved with Tyson, as Shaq mentioned. And nobody messes with Mike Tyson. Having said that, beating someone like that might still have some consequences for the legend.
