AMike Tyson super fan went to meet him and got this close to fulfilling his dreams, but he could not get Mike’s attention, even after flashing the enormous tattoo he got on his arm dedicated to Iron Mike.

Mike Tyson ignores fan with tattoo of him

As if seeing his favorite boxer postpone the highly-anticipated Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul fight wasn’t disappointing enough, this fan was left lifeless when his hero denied him a simple photo.

Tyson was looking the other way in the video, but it would still be hard to miss the incredible ink that portrayed Tyson’s face and a younger version of him in the ring in his prime.

The fan was right in his ear asking “can I get a picture with you?” but Tyson walked straight past, smoking something while blissfully ignorant of how big of a moment it must have been for the fan to be so close to his idol.

Is Mike Tyson to blame?

Viewers of the video on social media gave Tyson an out and questioned the fan’s motives instead, saying Mike was “probs too high” to recognize the tattoo and that he “barely knows what’s going on anymore.”

Or, as the most popular comment on Twitter/X said: “This is proof you shouldn’t treat these celebrities as god.”

Clearly, some of those sentiments rang true for the Mike Tyson super fan, who seemed to blankly stare as the legend walked past and ignored him. Hopefully, he got the tattoo for himself. If he got it for Mike, he’s probably reevaluating one of his worst life choices.
