He didn't destroy himself tho. Found clarity of anything
The man overcame so much . . I don't think Larry Holmes would've said the same thing about a Russian fighter, or even Ali for that matter - It seems he said that knowing of his troubled past.

Today Mike Tyson's best days are still ahead of him. That man is a great example of consciousness and triumph

That's cool and all but you're not disagreeing then right??
Mike Tyson destroyed himself and on the surface this would look like a negative thing but Mike Tyson destroyed a lesser version of himself to become the man he is today

The man started from nothing, hit the pinnacle, came crashing down and built himself up from the solid foundation of rock bottom. Sure he could've been smarter and sailed off into the sunset with a massive fortune. How many people would've worked with THAT Mike Tyson once he retired?

Instead he's found self.

He can go on a late night show and be relevant to the general public at anytime - he could even do a Ted Talk, He could give motivational speeches. He can really do anything he wants in his life and to stay on the sidelines of another man's life and say you would've done it better had you been in that position, is not only a failure to account for the difference in obstacles that you've faced but also the same absence of self that led to Mike Tyson's downfall and the quicker you realize that, the quicker you can be on a path toward your own fulfillment. You will never find that in someone else, you find that within.
