<p>Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson repeatedly punched a man on an airplane before a Jet Blue flight this week after the man was allegedly aggressive toward Tyson.</p>
<p>The incident <a href="https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/mike-tyson-punches-man-on-plane-at-san-francisco-airport-report/2870126/">happened</a> late on Wednesday night as Tyson was about to depart San Francisco after attending a 4/20 celebration earlier in the day.</p>
<p>A witness told TMZ that Tyson took a selfie with a man who apparently was overly excited to meet him and that the man did not stop pestering Tyson after taking the selfie.</p>
<p>&#8220;Eventually, though, we&#8217;re told Tyson had enough of the guy behind him talking in his ear &#8230; and told him to chill. When the guy didn&#8217;t, that&#8217;s when the witness says Tyson started to throw several punches at the man&#8217;s face,&#8221; TMZ <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2022/04/21/mike-tyson-repeatedly-punches-man-face-plane-bloodies-passenger/">reported</a>. &#8220;Video we obtained shows Tyson throwing a flurry of blows at the man, which you can see bloodied the passenger&#8217;s forehead. The witness says Mike walked off the plane just seconds later.&#8221;</p>
<p>A representative for Tyson <a href="https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/mike-tyson-punches-man-on-plane-at-san-francisco-airport-report/2870126/">told</a> a local news station on Thursday that the man was harassing Tyson and threw a water bottle at him.</p>
<p>&#8220;Unfortunately, Mr. Tyson had an incident on a flight with an aggressive passenger who began harassing him and threw a water bottle at him while he was in his seat,&#8221; Tyson&#8217;s representative said.</p>

<p>Tyson made news last month after he was confronted, along with others, by a man who pulled a gun at a rooftop bar in California. The man reportedly challenged Tyson to a fight but Tyson decided to stay calm and defused the situation.</p>
<p>“While you can’t hear exactly what was being said in the footage, eyewitnesses tell us the man was actually challenging Mike to a fight — suggesting he wanted to elevate his ‘status,’” <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20220324134010/https://www.tmz.com/2022/03/23/mike-tyson-guy-pulls-gun-fight-comedy-show/">TMZ reported</a>, adding that a man they were informed was the host/MC of the show had told the man to leave and started to shove him toward the exit, saying, “What the f*** are you doing? Get the f*** out of here. I’m not playing with you, get out of here, bro. I don’t give a f***.”</p>
