Charlie Sheen vs. Mike Tyson Quote Quiz


I love Mike Tyson, and not in an "ironic" way.  My dad would take me to sports bars when I was a kid to watch Tyson's fights because he thought it was a waste of money to get Pay-Per-View for a fight that only lasted 30 seconds. There would be so much build up and the commentators would convince you that the other guy had a chance, then Iron Mike would lay the dude out instantly. Tyson's trainer, Cuz D'Amato, literally took a kid off the street and made him a champion.  After D'Amato died, Don King took over and made him down a road that led to jail and face tattoos, but Tyson is still my favorite fighter of all time. If you haven't seen the Tyson documentary, check it out. He's also in some show on Animal Planet about his pigeons.

Personal shinfo aside, ESPN made up this quiz where you have to figure out who said it: Charlie Sheen or Mike Tyson.
