After an incident involving a passenger, a beating video of former world boxing champion Mike Tyson goes viral.
Former heavyweight boxer Mike Tyson loses his composure on a plane. Video shows a passenger sitting behind Mike Tyson verbally abusing the 55-year-old and throwing a water bottle at him. Tyson then bends over his seat and punches the young man. He then looks indignantly at the camera with a bloody wound on his forehead.
According to media reports, Tyson exited the Jet Blue airline’s plane before it could take off from San Francisco to fly to Florida.
A spokesman for the former boxing world champion confirmed a conflict in the machine to the German press agency: “Unfortunately, Mr Tyson had an incident with an aggressive passenger on a flight. He harassed him and threw a water bottle at him while Tyson was in his seat.” The video of the incident circulating on the Internet is not directly confirmed by the spokesman.
