It\u2019s probably one of the only times in his life when Michael Jordan didn\u2019t show off to anyone. No wonder since Mike Tyson is neither more nor less than a legend of boxing.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In 1988, the two men were at the top of their game in their respective disciplines. Jordan is coming out of a prosperous year individually speaking (MVP, defender of the year, Slam Dunk Contest), while Tyson is undefeated world heavyweight champion.<\/p>\n
During the year, they are both invited to a party at the home of one of the stars of US football at the time, Richard Dent. They sit face to face as the going gets tough.<\/p>\n

\u201cMike was there drinking, and as soon as he drinks, his feelings flare. I tell the waiter to put water in his glasses because I saw what was going to happen,\u201d said Rory Holloway, then manager of Tyson. Mike was just staring at Michael Jordan who was on the other side of the table.<\/p>\n
And he\u2019s like, \u2018Dude, you think I\u2019m stupid. I know you f***** with my b*****!\u2019 Michael went livid, as if he had just seen a ghost. \u2018I know you\u2019ve been with her. You can tell me!\u2019 throws Tyson at the Bulls star.\u201d<\/p>\n

Michael Jordan talking about the GOAT, it was exciting and everyone agreed<\/p>\n
At the time, Mike Tyson had just separated from his wife Robin Givens, the one in question here and that MJ would have possibly frequented as well. If the situation has not worsened, it is because many guests, including Holloway, have somehow retained the boxer who was forbidden to fight outside the ring.<\/p>\n
As for Michael Jordan, he quickly slipped away (luckily for him) and preferred never to talk about this story again\u2026 Understandable when you don\u2019t go very far from a broken jaw.<\/p>\n
As a reminder, Mike Tyson in 1988 was this:<\/p>\n
