Storytime with Mike Tyson should be its own podcast. The legendary champion boxer uses his Hotboxin’ With Mike Tyson show to not only chat with his famous guests but to share crazy stories his life. If there’s someone who has seen ups, downs, and everything in between, it’s Tyson, so while speaking with rapper and producer Havoc from Mob Deep on a recent episode of his popular series, Tyson told a story of a police officer bending all of the rules after pulling the boxer over.

Before he was living a more sober, calm life, Tyson was a playboy who fed any and all of his addictions. “I remember one day I got pulled over, I’m drunk, I’m high,” Tyson said. “So they pulled me over and they said, ‘Pull up on the curb.’ So I pull up, I go on the curb. Boom boom! Oh sh*t! The cop turns and looks and he goes, ‘Oh sh*t Mike Tyson! F*cking hell!”

Police were so enamored with the celebrity that they didn’t bother to check if he was sober. “I said, ‘Sir, can you help me get to this address?’ Then he took me to the f*ckin’ address where the drug spot was and I said, ‘Thank you sir’ and I was free!” Check out the conversation with Tyson and Havoc in its entirety below.

Eminem doesn’t really get out much regularly, so we’re surprised to have been blessed with a new interview from the Detroit legend at this time. We’re all dealing with this self-quarantine differently, but fans of Eminem were happy to learn of his appearance on Hotboxin’ With Mike Tyson, the boxer’s popular podcast. In addition to a number of interesting topics, Marshall Mathers told Iron Mike about what it’s like being a father to a young adult, speaking candidly about his 24-year-old daughter Hailie.

In recent years, Hailie Mathers has become a popular figure on social media. Closing in on two-million followers on Instagram, the 24-year-old is a hot commodity in influencer-land. Eminem is insanely proud of his little girl, as he revealed on the podcast. Mike Tyson asked if she’s thinking about having her own children yet, to which Em came through with the facts.

“Not babies, nope,” laughed the rapper. “Just, um, boyfriend and she’s doing good. She’s made me proud for sure. She graduated from college, 3.9.”

In the same realm, he discussed what it was like to raise his niece and another child. 

“I have a niece that I have help raised too that’s pretty much like a daughter to me and she is 26,” he said about Alaina. “And I have a younger one that’s 17 now. So when I think about my accomplishments that’s probably the thing I’m the most proud of is that—is being able to raise kids.”

He’s one of the most celebrated rappers in the world who releases one No. 1 album after another, but when he came face-to-face with Mike Tyson, Eminem turned into a stan. “I’m such a f*ckin’ huge fan,” Eminem told the boxing legend during his episode of Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson. “I can’t even like… I feel like a kid right now! This is crazy.” 

“For me, rap is like a 24-7 job, and it takes a lot of dedication to stay sharp with the pen,” Eminem said. “It’s a different kind of discipline to [fight]. And the balls to get in the ring and fight in the first place.” The rapper sat eagerly through most of the conversation, soaking up the words Tyson shared with him about his boxing history, insecurities, and survival mindset.

There are many gems in the dialogue, including Eminem relaying the story of being discovered and what it was like growing up in Detroit. The rapper talked about learning how to fight because of his ongoing physical altercations as a youth, also admitting that he has an eighth-grade education. While they discussed having people in your circle that boost your confidence in this crazy world, Eminem shared “that’s how Proof was to me.”

“He was a Godsend to me because I know that I would not have made it without knowing him,” Eminem said. Proof was a childhood friend of Em’s who was murdered back in 2006. Eminem said Proof “co-signed” for him everywhere he went. “His name meant something because people respected him.” Watch the full episode of Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson below.

Things got emotional on Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson when Sugar Ray Leonard sat down with his fellow champion boxer to talk about life inside and outside of the ring. The series isn’t one that typically features its guests or hosts in tears, but Tyson couldn’t help himself as he spoke with one of his idols about their favorite sport.

Tyson became choked up as he spoke about being in juvenile hall at 13-years-old, watching Leonard fight and knowing he wanted to do the same thing someday. Tyson could incredibly recall details of many of Leonard’s fights and explained how he felt when he was watching those wins and losses. Then, Tyson touched on who he was as a fighter and how he struggles with repressing the person he used to be because that person was out of control, while also missing his former self because that rage is what aided in making him a phenomenal boxer.

“I know the art of fight, I know the art of war,” Tyson said. “That’s why I’m so feared. That’s why they feared me when I was in the ring ’cause I was an annihilator. I was born for [that]. Now those days are gone. I’m empty. I’m nothing. I’m working on being the art of humbleness.” As he fought through his tears, Tyson said, “That’s the reason why I’m crying, ’cause I’m not that person no more and I miss him.”

“Sometimes I feel like a b*tch,” added Tyson. “Because I don’t want that person to come out because if he comes out, hell is coming with him. And it’s not fun at all. [I’m not trying] to sound cool like I’m a tough guy… I’m scared of him.” Watch Mike Tyson’s emotional clip with Sugar Ray Leonard below. 

Dame Dash is the latest guest on Mike Tyson’s highly-popularized podcast Hotboxin’ With Mike Tyson and he’s leaving no stone unturned. Over the course of the past decade, the Roc-a-Fella co-founder has been extremely transparent about almost every aspect of his life from his family, to his health, to his legal conflicts. Dame Dash continued to provide that same transparency with former World Heavyweight boxing champion, Mike Tyson. 

During the hour-long interview, Dash, Tyson, and Hotboxin’ co-host Eben Britton, discussed a wide array of topics. Dame Dash touched on the business acumen that has made him and many others around him wealthy. He went into detail about how he broke out of the chains of mental slavery and took his destiny into his own hands dominating in multiple facets of consumerism from fashion, music, movies, and more. 

The studio/streaming service owner turned things up a notch when he took shots at YouTube executive, Lyor Cohen, stating, “I don’t like Lyor, man, at all… Exploits my culture. He couldn’t survive in his own culture,” a sentiment Dash has been vocal about in the past. 

Dame also spoke on his current relationship with ex-Roc-a-Fella affiliates, Jim Jones and Jay Z. Last year, Dash had publicly apologized for his comments regarding his former friends and business associates but claims their relationships have not been rekindled in any way. 

The father and entrepreneur had this to say about Jim Jones, “We don’t have a relationship, he went a different way.” He then went on to add, “I saw him the other day he didn’t say a word to me.” 

In regards to Hov, Dame claims the rapper/philanthropist is unrecognizable these days nonchalantly stating, “He’s just another dude, it doesn’t matter… I don’t even know this version of Jay-Z. I have no idea who he is, and I’m not even curious, I’m cool.”

Despite his souring relationship with his ex-comrades, Dame Dash was eloquent, direct, and determined to speak his mind with Mike Tyson and company. While he may not have relationships with Jay and Jim these days, there’s no telling what the future holds. After all, diamonds are forever.
