#1. Mike Tyson got a prison official pregnant

Perhaps the darkest time of Mike Tyson's life was his stint in prison after being convicted of rape. While in conversation with Jim Gray on the 'Hotboxin' with Mike Tyson' podcast, 'Iron Mike' opened up about his experience in prison.

He revealed that he had indulged in more than just penance while he was incarcerated. He admitted that his time in prison was not as bad as he had thought it would be.

"I had a girlfriend and I got a girl pregnant in prison. I was living a life in prison. It was just meant to be. I was Mike Tyson and everybody gave me what I wanted," said Mike Tyson.

While Mike Tyson has been rather candid about his time in prison, this was a part that he'd swept under the rug for quite some time. Tyson was rather tight-lipped when it came to divulging any personal details of his paramour.
