Mike Tyson has experienced a lot of setbacks in his life.

His father, Jimmy Kirkpatrick, left the family when he was just 2 years old. According to Mike’s memoirs, he and his siblings had no idea who their father was.

He continued by stating that his father was listed as Jamaican taxi driver Percel Tyson on his birth certificate. The issue was that until he went away, neither he nor his siblings had ever met him in person.
