Mike Tyson is the latest victim of the viral TikTok trend: 'Give me my money!'

Viewed millions of times online, the current craze has already claimed fellow celebrities including Idris Elba and Will Smith.

Many sports teams and creators have also given it a go but we don't think Tyson got the gist exactly.

Uploaded to social media by his daughter Milan, the 16-year-old tennis star couldn't help but poke fun at her dad.

Milan later expressed her regret and affection with a heartfelt apology on social media: “@miketyson I am sorry but I love you though.”

When it is finally Iron Mike's turn in the spotlight, the embarrassment takes over as he begins to realise he is the brunt of the joke.


Viewed over 1.2million times already, Tyson has quickly gone viral for his failed attempt.

Tyson is still scheduled to face off against Jake Paul on November 15, in an exhibition bout.

The fight, which is set to take place at the AT&T stadium in Texas, will be the former undisputed heavyweight champion's first professional ring appearance since he was defeated by Kevin McBride back in 2005.

In November 2020, Tyson fought against Roy Jones Jr. in an exhibition match that resulted in a split decision draw.

Many believed Tyson had done enough to win the fight.

Some have questioned just why Tyson is choosing to fight YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul in all honesty.

Besides the money, the 58-year-old offered some reasoning behind his decision.

“I don’t think he can hurt me," began the American.

“[And] I’m a glory junkie. I love people thinking about me all day.

"I’d rather live a short life of glory than a long life of obscurity. It’s just who I am.

“This is all I started fighting for: to get all this f***ing status.

"I’m going to be chasing it for the rest of my life, I know that.

"I’m never going to get what I want, because I’m one of those gluttons for pain. I can never get enough.”
