Mike Tyson Enters Hall of FameBy Joanna Frank on June 13th, 2011


AP – Indutee Mike Tyson, with daughter Milan, gives a thumbs-up during the Boxing Hall of Fame parade in Canastota.
Mike Tyson was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame this past Sunday. His acceptance speech encapsulated both the triumphs and tribulations of this iconic figure.

According to an article by Yahoo News, Mike Tyson the once “baddest man on the planet,” showed a much softer side as he searched for the words to express his gratitude while receiving the honor. He spent a great deal of time discussing his trainer Cus D’Amato, who he credits for guiding him during his early career, and who became his legal guardian after his mother’s death.
