Wednesday, May 20, 2026 - Legendary American boxer, Mike Tyson, has recalled how he caught his ex-wife with a young Brad Pitt as their marriage was spiraling towards divorce.
During a wild interview on "This Past
Weekend," Theo Von asked him if any guy had ever stolen one of his
girlfriends. He then recalled the time he spotted his ex-wife Robin
Givens with Pitt - before the actor became a Hollywood sensation.
'That's an interesting story. He didn't steal her from me,
but me and my wife were going through a divorce,' recalled Tyson, who married
the actress in 1988 before they divorced a year later.
But, one day, I went over to the house... she wasn't home.
Nobody,' Tyson continued. 'Then, [I saw her] driving up the road with the BMW
that I bought her.' Tyson spotted someone else in the car.
'I thought it was one of her friends from "Head of the
Class" [the sitcom Givens appeared in as Darlene Merriman between 1986 and
1991].
'But it wasn't one of her friends. It was Brad Pitt trying
to get some head,' Tyson recalled. 'He wasn't Brad Pitt yet. I didn't know who
the f*** he was... he didn't even have a car.'
It is not the first time that Tyson has told a version of
the story. He once claimed that he was 'mad as hell' after spotting Pitt, who
back then 'was like a beach bum, a little nerdy.'
'You had to see the look on his face. He looked like he was
ready to receive his last rites,' Tyson wrote in his 2013 book, Undisputed
Truth. By 1989, Tyson was world heavyweight champion and considered 'The
Baddest Man on the Planet.'
