Controversy continues to hound legendary boxer Mike Tyson. Now, 'Iron Mike' is in news for punching a fellow passenger on a plane.

In viral videos on social media, Tyson was seen landing punches on a person behind his seat on the plane. Other videos showed the passenger with some bruises on his face.

Tyson walked off the flight before it took off from San Francisco for Florida. Tyson has regularly indulged in wild behaviour over the years, even when he was a sportsperson.
