Athletistic/Boxing. Legendary boxer Mike Tyson says he spent three of the best years of his life in prison.

Tyson’s career was cut short in 1992 when he was sentenced to six years in prison for rape. Tyson was released in 1995 after serving almost three years in prison, after which he resumed his boxing career by beating Peter McNeely.

“I spent the best three years of my life in prison. I had peace. Money means nothing if you don’t have peace, stability and balance. I had good food , everyone was nice to me, they treated me well.

I ran eight or nine miles around the yard, and in the evening I jumped for four hours in my cell. Everyone treated me well in prison, they were scared of me, but I was always a good person,” Tyson said.
