## Bio

Michael Gerard Tyson was born June 30, 1966, and turned pro in 1985, winning his first 19 fights by knockout—12 in the first round. At 20, he claimed his first belt and became the youngest heavyweight champion ever, then unified the WBA, WBC, and IBF titles by 1987, reigning as undisputed champion until 1990. That year, Buster Douglas knocked him out in one of boxing's greatest upsets. In 1992, Tyson was convicted of rape and served three years of a six-year sentence. After his 1995 release, he regained the WBA and WBC titles in 1996, joining Ali and Foreman as one of six men to reclaim a heavyweight championship after losing it. He lost the WBA belt to Evander Holyfield by eleventh-round stoppage in 1996, then was disqualified in their 1997 rematch for biting Holyfield's ears. His 2002 title shot ended in a knockout loss to Lennox Lewis. In November 2024, he lost to Jake Paul by unanimous decision in a fight that became the biggest US boxing gate outside Las Vegas.
