Mike Tyson's not all bad.

'Iron' Mike Tyson is the last boxer who was truly embraced by the media. They followed him around. You didn't know what he was going to do next: bite you, cut you, fight you. When you think about it, that defines him - it was an exciting adventure.

When it gets to the part in life where you're more afraid of what your wife is going to do to you than if you box, say, Mike Tyson, you've got to get a new profession. You don't get to be a family. I know why boxers never quit, some of them. They don't have wives.

I'm not Mike Piazza,

The 3-ball's not my game. But I was open, so I said why not take it. Coach (Mike Ortiz) gave me the green light, and it happened.

I'm not saying Mike was like that in real life. Although he was and is.
