10 Best Moments On The Joe Rogan Experience

10. Mike Tyson Tells Tiger Story

Mike Tyson's appearance on the JRE last year answered the prayers of fans who had been requesting Iron Mike to be on the show practically since the inception of the podcast. An interview with the guy who became the youngest heavyweight champion in the history of boxing, was one of the worlds most famous sportspeople during the height of his fame, and lived a life as notorious outside of the ring as it was successful in it, was always going to be a great episode and it more than delivered.

Alongside his illustrious career in the art of pugilism, Tyson's terrifying reputation was solidified by his often wild antics in his personal life. With an almost inordinate amount of wealth during his boxing prime, Tyson had the resources to live out nearly all of his wildest desires including infamously owning several Bengal tigers.

Among the many classic moments during his appearance on the podcast, Tyson explains how he decided to buy the exotic animals while he was incarcerated, for no other reason than that he thought that it would be cool to own them.

The episode offers a fascinating insight on what it would be like to go from having absolutely nothing to being able to own anything you could possibly desire in a short space of time and the effect that can have on someone, plus Tyson is a talented storyteller and he and Joe really hit it off from the outset.
