Mike Tyson is getting ready to fight again, and it looks like he’s turned into his tough, serious self.
He wasn’t being friendly with reporters, even a young reporter who tried to talk to him before his fight with Jake Paul. Mike didn’t say much, and he was acting like the strong and fierce fighter he used to be.
A long time ago, Mike would say a lot of surprising things in interviews. But before he decided to fight Jake Paul, he seemed a bit nicer. Now, he’s back to being all business.

Mike Tyson’s Unfiltered Response to 14-Year-Old Girl Sparks Viral Buzz
On Wednesday, Mike Tyson talked to a 14-year-old reporter named Jazlyn Guerra, who is also from Brooklyn like him. She asked him what he wants people to remember about him after he’s done with being famous.
But Mike got really upset and gave a super strange answer that quickly became a big deal on the internet. Jazlyn has millions of followers, so everyone saw his wild reply.
“I don’t believe in the word legacy. I just think it’s another word for ego,” he responded. “Legacy doesn’t mean nothing. That’s just some word everyone grabbed onto. Someone said that word and everyone grabbed on to it and now it’s used every five seconds.
“It means absolutely nothing to me. I’m just passing through. I’m going to die and it’s going to be over. Who cares about legacy after that? What a big ego. I want people to think I’m this, I’m great. No, I’m nothing. We’re just dead. We’re dust, we’re absolutely nothing. Our legacy is nothing.”
When Jazlyn tried to ask her next question, Mike Tyson kept going with his strange thoughts and said more weird stuff.
“Can you really imagine somebody saying ‘I want my legacy to be this way when I’m’? You’re dead! You think someone really wants to think about you?
“Where’s the audacity; I want people to think about me when I’m gone. Who the f*** cares about me when I’m gone? Nobody cares for me but my grandkids, who the f*** cares?”
After Mike Tyson said some really strange things, Jazlyn stayed calm and kept asking her questions. She even gave him a special gift.
She gave him a rare trading card of his first coach, Cus D’Amato, that she got at a big sports event. Mike looked really happy and honored to get the card.
“I know that he was very special to you and had a very big impact on your life,” she said, to which Tyson replied that he was “Why I’m here with you right now.” He appeared moved by the gesture, telling the young journalist ‘I think I’m going to do just that, thank you.”
When Jazlyn asked Mike for one last bit of motivation, he used it to talk about his big fight with Jake Paul. He said, “Come watch the fight, you won’t regret it.”
