Mike Tyson Reveals How He Got His White Tiger, Creates Fan-Controlled Football League

Mike Tyson discussed details of his one-of-a-kind football league and revealed how he got his famous “white tiger” pet.

Widely regarded as a vicious man in the past, Tyson has proven that he has changed a lot these days. In fact, the former world boxing champ is currently active in organizing sports events. Just recently, Tyson hosted a charity Golf tournament in California. And now, the former baddest man in the planet, has announced that he will be spearheading a “fan-controlled” football league.

In a recent interview on ESPN’s “Now or Never” right inside his “Tyson Ranch” office, the former boxer provided more details about the unique football league he is planning to run. According to Tyson, the football league will involve the fans a lot and for the most part, the fans will be the ones calling out the play.

“We’re gonna get advice from the fans, and we’re gonna use and make some of the plays that the fans say,” Tyson explained.

As early as now, Tyson’s football league already sounds interesting and fun. However, the boxing legend revealed that he also plans to manage the best team in the said league as “being the best” is in his DNA.

“I wanna have the best team in the league. It’s my whole objective in life. I don’t know, like I said, my ego again, is probably to compete and be the best, to believe that I’m the best, to be the best, to want to be the best and to the best in the world,” Tyson admitted.

The fact that Tyson will put a different twist into it, the so-called fan-controlled football league generates interest.

Tyson was also asked how he got his world-famous white tiger. As per Tyson, a friend “hooked him up” with a guy who was responsible for allowing him to have a tiger as his pet.

“One day I’m in prison and im calling my car dealer from prison nad he said that this other friend of mine owed him money so if he doesn’t come he’s gonna sell his cars that he have and buy some animals and buy animals like some horses and stuff. I said really? How about from my cars? Yeah you can get some tigers, I said whoaw! You serious?, as soon as I came out I got some tigers, he hooked me up with a guy and get me some tigers,” Tyson revealed.
