Mike Tyson‘s career as a boxer will forever go down as one of the greatest of all time. Now, the Boxing sensation has teased his next chapter in the world-famous sport. Many are doubtful about Tyson’s success in this new designation. However, Los Angeles Lakers legend Shaquille O’Neal is not. Mike Tyson has left Shaq stunned several times previously with his excellence inside the ring. This time, it will be outside.

Anyhow, this is not the only highlight. In a previous revelation, Tyson shared his spending on an addiction he held. Surprisingly, it made Shaq’s $400 million net worth look like spare change. Nonetheless, this did not stop the LA legend from showing his support to Iron Mike. 

Shaquille O’Neal in awe of Mike Tyson’s next chapter

It is not easy being Mike Tyson. Initially, Tyson was one of the richest superstars in the sporting world. Later in his career, he hit rock bottom due to his abnormal spending on certain things. How did Tyson go bankrupt from being one of the richest sports stars in the world?

Apart from drugs, fashion, cars etc. Tyson had an immense love for cannabis after boxing. The Boxing icon revealed he spent $25,000 on weed alone every month.  Thus, his annual spending on his favorite addiction stood at an astronomical high of half a million for just one year.

However, Tyson managed to enter the field again. Having learned some lessons, Tyson has a $10 million net worth now.

Well, the 57-year-old has a good chance to increase it further. Tyson has made his return as a boxing coach. Training French boxing star Francis Ngannou for his upcoming battle against Tyson Fury, [Mike]Tyson shared a video of the grueling process on his Instagram handle.

As it is going viral, Shaquille O’Neal decided to share it on his story as well.

Shaq’s net worth compared to that of Mike Tyson’s

Shaquille O’Neal has keenly built a $400 million empire with crucial business investments and savings. Although the 7-foot giant spends around $1.2 million every month, his massive net worth justifies it.

However, when compared to Tyson’s expenditure on weed, Shaquille’s total net worth falls short. Though Tyson might have only $10 million on his account now, things were a whole lot different a decade ago. Looks like Tyson managed to impress the NBA legend once again. 

After all, while Shaq maintains a net worth of $400 million, Iron Mike earned about the same amount from his career earnings alone. Adjusted to inflation, the number is even more bizarre. Not only did Tyson earn about $700 million in today’s money, he spent most of it too!

Regardless of the financial battles, Shaq has always been a fan of Tyson.
