Mike Tyson – Man Pulls Out A Gun After Altercation At Comedy Show

Mike Tyson

While you can’t hear exactly what was being said in the footage, reportedly, eyewitnesses at the event told sources the man was actually challenging Mike to a fight, and asking the boxer to help

“elevate his status.” 

While the man was pretty animated and definitely in Mike’s personal space, the heavyweight boxer remained calm. Things escalated when the host/MC of the show intervened, trying to get the man out of Mike Tyson’s face.

That appears to have upset the guy challenging Mike Tyson who then pulled out a gun and threatened to shoot the host. Everyone gasped and started hiding under tables. Thankfully, he put the gun away, but once again approached Tyson and asked him not to call the cops. This time, Tyson got up and embraced the man by giving him a hug, seemingly to defuse the tension in the room. The warm embrace from Mike Tyson seemed to help as the man left the bar without any further incident.
