One of the paps got out of pocket yesterday at LAX with Iron Mike… and the inevitable happened. Mike caught fade and was locked up:

Mike Tyson has been arrested following an incident with paparazzi at LAX. LA police Sergeant Kevin Lowe said Tyson had been detained, but did not know if he was still at the airport.

Spokesperson for Tyson, Tammy Brook, says the boxer was making his way to LAX with his wife and 10-month old child when he was allegedly attacked by paparazzi. He was acting in self-defense to protect his child, Brook said. He is believed to have been arrested over an assault. Tyson has been released on his own recognizance.

Damn, Mike. Get well…

    He said on Oprah his kids are his world, don’t push him and you won’t get knocked the F*** out!

  • AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWSHADDAAAAP!!!!

    ‘Released on his own recognizance’???

  • AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWSHADDAAAAP!!!!

    If you ‘recognized’ this guy, wouldn’t you want to make sure you kept him locked up???

    Wow… the Pap probably deserved it. They dont know any limits.

  • HoneySuckleGirl (KEEP ME NEAR THE CROSS…LOL)

    People don’t play when it comes to family. And I would do the same thing if you disrespect my family.

  • citiboi

    I can’t stand to see the PAP attack people…If you touch them they are famous and might get a little paper. If you don’t touch them they pictures of you holding your baby with a big a&& booger in your nose. That should be a crime!!!

  • DayShifter

    They should change the laws, FOR EVERYONE, either your picture is private property with all copyright laws or it’s not. So just like everything else, photos will all be staged.

    I don’t understand why somebody would step to Mike anyway. It’s like when you little and your father comes in the house with a certain look on his face, you know it’s chill night. Mike is obviously a guy of uncertain behavior. It’s like “Hey Mike!” and keep it moving.

  • Whaaaa

    @ Cj
    That is what I was thinking. I mean, professional boxers got knocked out in .0 seconds flat with this dude! Why would I, armed with a camera want to go toe to toe?
    Stupid is as stupid does…that’s what mama used to say.

  • drenk

    damn mike ya know people wanna mess with you, you gotta get some anger management, do yoga or tai chi or something

  • lawd da mercy

    FREE MIKE TYSON!

  • Ms.Ej

    People well white folks still keep stepping up to Mike Tyson SMH the man has already lost a child, and then the guy had the nerve to bother him while he was w/his other child that is just STUPID & RECKLESS.

  • Red

    Mike’s hands are certified lethal weapons. If he truly swung to knock someone out, the deed would be done. And he would still be in jail!

  • I’m Just Me: Keeping It Real Since 1983

    I MEAN THIS IS MIKE TYSON Y’ALL. WHY MESS WITH HIM…YOU KNOW HE IS VIOLENT WITH A SHORT FUSE!!! HE DID IT TO HIMSELF!

    I really don’t care for that tattoo on his face. That is an EPIC FAIL!!!

  • Alrighty Then…

    Hey IJM…

    I think the pap got exactly what he deserved. They overstep their bounds waaay too much. They say things to try and get you riled up… True, Mike should know the game by now, but the pap shoulda been familiar w/ Mike’s temper. He asked for it. Let this man live!

  • I’m Just Me: Keeping It Real Since 1983

    HEY ALRIGHTY THEN!!!

  • honeygold

    It’s a damned shame that we still ain’t free. Y’all betta wake up!

  • tg

    Dang – he was doing so well, lately, keeping a pretty low profile & staying out of trouble. Trouble follows this man where ever he goes.

  • Scoobie…also known as Scoobiesnax

    Of all the people for a pap to approach.

    Ashton Kutcher damn near knocked a papparazzi down ,, why is he not in jail?

  • It’s Me

    I agree with Mike, hope the charges are dropped! I hope the camera guy is f*&*& up… I also hope he learned his lesson for bothering Mike or any other person for that matter..

    Last I heard….that dude is still smelling salt from that punch….and at the request of his doctor,no solid food for a month,so all the shaking teeth can get solid again…from now on and until the end of his miserable life,he can expect to experience occasional headache and loss of hearing….lol

  • http://bossip.com This some Shhh…

    I guess the Paps didn’t see that Oprah interview.

  • Mama Mila

    MIKE……Come on…….again?

  • steph

    Paps are so invasive sometimes…they need to get knocked the F*** out when they get too close in someones private space saying disrespectful sh**…IMO

  • http://www.BAPEUSA.com BAPE747

    The have to leave the man be. He JUST lost Exodus. Famous or infamous, he deserves to be left alone. Gotta get laws changed for the shutterbugs to back up.

  • always knew

    Again?? :(

    He can’t seem to stay out of trouble..

  • Pookie

    GO Tyson!!!!!
    was it a knock-out?? did he bite an ear??
    If no, then he shouldn’t be arrested in the first place. Am sick of the paps; they never know their limits.

    Why get all self-righteous and then put that damn advert under my post. Did i ask you to? No!!!! So who’s disrespecting now? kmt, smh

  • 52yr old white guy

    I’ll give the benefit of the doubt to Mike all day. After just losing a child you can’t blame him for being protective of his baby around these pap jerks. You just know the guy invaded the personal space of his family. It should be a crime for paps to get within 6 feet.

  • 52yr old white guy

    Why was the word ‘space’ blanked out of my comment? I’ve never heard ‘space’ used as a dirty word ever. Space, the final frontier…..

  • LBCER

    I’m sure the ninja got what he deserved. Leave Mike alone!

  • asgquicks

    paps need to stop hounding people. what really happened, i bet Mike wasn’t paying attention to the paps so he brought up Tyson’s dead daughter to get a rise out of him. Then mike caught him with a right hook.

    I bet that is what happened

    If this is true no jury in the world will convict Tyson. Unless its one of those real RACIST ones.

    I SAY DROP ALL CHARGES!!!

  • the sane one

    PAPS just don’t know their limits. I am praying for this man because he has really been throught it!

  • deesac

    You have to read the whole story not only did they bum rush him and his wife and child. They also followed mike into the restroom. What was they trying to do get a picture of his D%*k enough is enough.
