Mike Tyson is crazy. We all know that. But his particular form of crazy still makes for a highly amusing (if somewhat misleading) lede in a summary article of his recent fights.

You might be shocked, or at least surprised, to cross paths with Mike Tyson at a benefit for children's charities. Tyson's philanthropic reputation suffered a blow when he threatened to eat Lennox Lewis's kids.
The article goes on to juxtapose Tyson's children eating threats with the fact that he has spent time at Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch, ostensibly because he had "nothing else to do." If Michael Jackson truly loved children as much as he claims, wouldn't he want to keep a freak who had in the past threatened to eat children and committed a sex crime away from the kids at the Neverland Ranch? But perhaps Jackson found a kindred spirit in Tyson. Neither of them are exactly normal, so perhaps this is a case of birds of a feather flocking together.
