‘My Mother Slept With a Man While I Was in the Bed With Her’: Mike Tyson

Mike Tyson had a hard childhood, and the fact that his mother, Lorna Tyson, died before she could see him do well in the ring had a big effect on the two-time heavyweight champion. Mike and his mother grew up in Brownsville, Brooklyn, which is known as one of the toughest neighborhoods in New York. This made it easy for Mike to get involved in the violent side of life.


Because of this, "The Baddest Man on Planet" saw what jail looks like when he was young. His mother worked hard to raise Tyson in a healthy environment, but she didn't succeed because she didn't have enough money and was having trouble with her own life. The 56-year-old man said that his mother's death was good for him on an episode of Hotboxin'. He had his own thoughts about why he did it.

He says that his mother, who died when he was 16 years old, was kind, but she never had her life together. She used to drink a lot and date a lot of men. Reports say that Tyson never had a good time with his mother's boyfriends.

In his book, "Undisputed truth by Mike Tyson," he wrote about this. In the same book, he wrote about a traumatic event that he thinks changed his life a lot.

What did Mike Tyson and his mother do that left him in the dark?

Tyson said that he was mostly a mama's boy until he was 15 years old when he talked about the men his mother dated. He used to sleep next to his mother, which was different from his other siblings. When her boyfriend moved in with her while he was there, it was very sad.

"Once, while I was in bed with her, my mother slept with a man. I think she thought I was sleeping. I'm sure it changed me, but that's the way it was. When her boyfriend Eddie Gillison came into the picture, I had to sit on the couch. They really didn't know how to love each other. Tyson wrote in his book, "I guess that's why my own relationships were so weird."

Tyson thought they had a bad relationship, but they were still in love with each other. Before he got married to Lakiha Spicer, Tyson had several failed relationships, just like his mother.
