This led to an argument between the rappers and the security guards who had now doubled in number. As the feud heated up, Fat Joe was fearful that it might turn physical with the bouncers now getting increasingly hostile. It was then that the rapper heard a familiar voice behind him and turned to see none other than Mike Tyson who said,

“Yo Pun, Yo Joe, let’s f**k these dudes up. I got your back.”

The boxing legend then proceeded to chase the multiple security guards around the car over 20 times until they gave up and let Big Pun and Fat Joe off the hook.

Mike Tyson And The Tale Of Three Tigers

Mike Tyson led a colorful and controversial life that saw the boxer indulge in many excesses. One of his bizarre decisions resulted in him buying and attempting to domesticate three Bengal tigers. Tyson soon realized that this was a very unwise decision but not before many mishaps and accidents took place because of it including a woman being badly injured by one of the tigers.

“I was foolish, there is no way you can domesticate these cats 100 per cent, there is no way. I used to sleep with them. They were in my house. I’m just happy that I educated myself, it was late, but I educated myself. I was wrong.”
