“Going In to the Flow State of Consciousness”: Fans Left in Awe of Mike Tyson’s Wisdom on Focus in Recent Clip
Mike Tyson is one of the first names that comes to our mind when we think of boxing legends. The former-heavyweight champion has trailblazed the industry for boxers to come and establish their name. A man of great strength, courage, and determination that not everyone possesses, ‘Iron Mike’ has been that force of nature that leads the way in boxing circles. The way he knocked out his opponents, and the attitude with which he would enter the ring will go down in history as one of the most iconic.
Tyson created history as the youngest boxer to win a heavyweight title at the age of 20. Further, his achievements in the sport have earned him a place in the International Boxing Hall of Fame.
Although Tyson’s professional career will be regarded as a huge success story in the annals of boxing, he lived a life marred with controversies outside of it. However, that has never stopped folks from admiring his skills inside the boxing ring. What could be the motivation behind such stellar performances?
“When you really focus, you hear everything,” Mike Tyson indulges in some philosophy
The heavyweight champion took to his Instagram to post a video of him speaking about how he was always observant of his surroundings when he would enter the ring for a fight.
Unlike most fighters who claim to cut out of the noise to concentrate on their bout, Iron Mike has a different approach wherein he would soak in all the chatter from the crowd. He said, ” I hear voice, I hear everything. I see everyone. But I hear more than I see them. No one’s focused when they don’t hear anything. When you really focus, you hear everything.”
The inspirational words spoken by him have not just impressed his fans but have sent them down a philosophical spiral.

Quinton Tate was also impressed by the way Tyson encapsulated his in-ring experience. The user said, ” Going in to the flow state of consciousness”
