Mike Tyson and Donald Trump
There is nothing that would scare the life out of a person than being confronted by an “angry” Mike Tyson back in the 1980s and 1990s. Donald Trump is famous for treading on tight ropes and once he was confronted by the deadliest man on planet earth.
“TrumpNation: The Art of Being the Donald” is a biography about Donald Trump. The book was written by author Timothy L. O’Brien. A part of the book discusses the relationship between the billionaire and the legendary boxer Mike Tyson. According to the book, Tyson once confronted Trump about having slept with his wife, Robin Givens.
Givens and Tyson were married between the years 1988 and 1989. There were several rumors that suggested Trump was having an affair with Givens which triggered the dangerous boxer, who was in his prime at that time to confront the billionaire. “Could I ask you, are you f***ing my wife?” Tyson asked Trump “angrily” according to the biographical book written by Timothy L. O’Brien.
The author also quoted the first words Trump had about this incident in his book. “Now, if I froze, I’m dead…you would have zero chance. Here’s the heavyweight champion of the world, and he’s a solid piece of f***ing armor,” said Trump according to the book. [H/T TalkSport]
