Mike Tyson: From Iron Mike to Inner Peace

The discovery of boxing became a transformative force in Tyson's life. A social worker recognized his inherent talent and introduced him to the sport, providing him with a discipline and a purpose he had sorely lacked. The ring offered him a structured arena where his aggression could be channeled, turning destructive tendencies into competitive drives. This newfound focus began to pull him away from the destructive influences of his past. He dedicated himself entirely to training, finding a sense of belonging and direction within the boxing gym.
