Watch: Mike Tyson viciously punches passenger on plane
Mike Tyson was recently on a plane trip where a passenger began taunting him. The passenger, whose name has not been made public yet, kept taunting 'The Baddest Man on the Planet' as his friend recorded the entire ordeal. The former Heavyweight Champion of the world was not reacting to the passenger initially.
After a while, however, it seemed like 'The Baddest Man on the Planet' had enough. Tyson turned around and began viciously punching the man. A man recording the incident can be heard saying:
"Hey, hey, hey Mike, hold on, stop that."

The clip then cuts to the passenger's friend filming his injuries. The man was left with a bloodied head as he posed for the camera. Fans in the comments section seemed to side with 'Iron' Mike. The passenger in question appeared to be taunting Tyson. One user tweeted:
"Mike is extremely chill these days. That guy must have said something real bad to set Mike off this bad."

Another user said:
"Watched the other side of the story. The guy was non stop bugging him to the point where it was pretty obvious he was trying to get a rise out of Mike. Violence shouldn’t be the answer but there’s something to be said of people trying to provoke actions like this."
