Also, for a long time, the body of Mike painted a portrait of his ex-wife – pediatrician Monica Turner. The world first saw this tattoo on Tyson’s left forearm in 1995, when the boxer got out of prison, where he had been for three years on rape charges.
Tyson has been married three times. His first two marriages to Robin Givens and Monica Turner subsequently ended with some ugly details about Tyson. Marriage to Givens lasted a year while Turner filed for divorce after four years of marriage.
However, his career was marred by scandals, including imprisonment and rape accusations, which took a significant toll on his public persona. Despite these difficulties, Tyson managed to rebuild his reputation, becoming a successful businessman, actor, and popular media figure. His charisma, outspokenness and transformational ability continue to inspire fans around the world, making him a truly iconic figure.

Furthermore, this trend may reflect how tattoos have become a symbol of resilience, strength, and determination in the boxing world. Many fighters choose tattoos that represent their personal journeys, achievements, or significant life events. Tattoos can serve as a source of motivation and inspiration for these athletes.
Zhang, says Tommy, “can be the godfather of Chinese boxing,” a pioneer for future generations. “The next Sugar Ray Robinson could be some 8-year-old from Shanghai who’s never seen a boxing glove,” says Tommy. “They have the athletic talent pool. There’s no reason it can’t be.”
“I’m the best ever. I’m the most brutal and vicious, the most ruthless champion there has ever been. There’s no one can stop me. Lennox is a conqueror? No! I’m Alexander! He’s no Alexander! I’m the best ever. There’s never been anyone as ruthless. I’m Sonny Liston. I’m Jack Dempsey. There’s no one like me. I’m from their cloth. There is no one who can match me. My style is impetuous, my defense is impregnable, and I’m just ferocious. I want your heart! I want to eat his children! Praise be to Allah!”
The suit isn’t frivolous, however, legal experts say. They contend the case could offer the first rulings on tricky questions about how far the rights of the copyright holder extend in creations that are, after all, on someone else’s body. They are questions likely to crop up more often as it becomes more common for actors or athletes to have tattoos and as tattoo designs become more sophisticated.

It’s not a dragon on his right forearm, it’s a tiger. I worked with the artist who did the tattoo at Diversity tattoo in Las Vegas (right next to the Stratosphere) on the strip near Sahara Street. We were all using stripper names so I never got the artist’s real name. He was a funny guy. He complained once about not having a girlfriend and always having to “pay for it”. Cracked me up!
Monica Turner became one of the few who did not turn away from Mike then. After all the years of imprisonment, the girl visited Mike in prison, and after his release, the couple married, but their marriage did not last long – only six years. After the divorce, he disappeared and tattooed a portrait of his wife, over which the boxer put a new drawing.
If Joyce had won, he would have extended his perfect 16-0 record but his infamous inability to take punches eventually caught up to him. The ‘Juggernaut’ had so far won all 15 of his boxing bouts prior to the loss against Zhang.
