Boxing represents something very special to me. Like boxing, life is a challenge. It’s a fight. I feel my story and the stories of other boxers can help others, so I’m going to be doing my best to sit down and talk with as many past and up and coming boxing greats and share them with you. The first of which is Mike Tyson, who I had the opportunity to sit down with in December at the 2011 WBC Convention. We were both inducted into the Multi Ethnic Sports Hall of Fame along with Marvin Hagler, Jeff Fenech, Eddie Futch and Joe Frazier.

The first time I saw Mike was on HBO. He is an incredible Heavyweight – fast and tough. Like me, Mike has evolved over the years and learned a lot. We talked about how we both aren’t perfect and how we have overcome our struggles. When I asked Mike how he wants to be remembered, he replied, “I just want to be remembered…as a good person.”

Here is my exclusive interview with Mike Tyson:

How do you want to be remembered?
