TMZ reported that Mike Tyson was seen during an episode of rage on a plane ride. According to TMZ, the confusion occurred on Wednesday night and everything was captured on video.

The former heavyweight champion was reportedly enraged by a passenger to whom he responded with punches on a flight from San Francisco to Florida. According to a witness who was on board with friends, Tyson initially seemed unfazed by the harassment from the passenger.

TMZ's source, who posted the video, also claimed that the person sitting behind Mike took his patience away by continuing to speak, even with Tyson making it clear that he would like to remain silent. Still, the boy decided to continue with the provocations, which resulted in punches to the face.

In the video you can see the victim, who would be under the influence of some drug, with a bleeding forehead. After the mix-up, he was treated and released to the police. Mike Tyson's team has yet to comment.
