Mike Tyson became a world boxing champion at 20. He lost the title in 1990 and later served three years in prison over rape charges.
By 1997, he was fighting again. When Michael was two years old his father abandoned the family.
Small and shy – Tyson was often the target of bullying. He opted for street fighting to combat this. He had to become many challenges to cross the bridge to fame.
In physical sense – a bridge is a structure built to span physical obstacles without closing the way underneath such as a body of water – to provide passage over the impediment.

Bridges play a pivotal role in breaking down separation and foster constant relations.
In economic terms, the cost of travel and trade falls and the financial benefits of increased social cohesion and sharing resources rise.
Birchenough Bridge is the name of a bridge across the Save River in Zimbabwe. It links Chipinge with Buhera. Today – a village next to the bridge – is a now centre of a small-scale farming.
The world's longest bridge is the Danyang–Kunshan Grand Bridge in China, part of the Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed Railway. The bridge, which opened in June 2011, spans 165 kilometers.
Bridges join separate entities – they cross voids and allow us to cover those voids. Bridges span chasms that divide continuity and breach togetherness – they connect things.
They don't actually bring things closer together, but they make it feel like things are closer.
Bridge significance
Due to their design, bridges need regular maintenance.
Currently, loads more than 25 tonnes are outlawed at Birchenough Bridge due to structural defects – and business has suffered.
Borrowing from the concept of bridges, Tiyambuke International Christian Convention (TICC) – a Shona word which means to crossover into another dimension for various Christian denominations given by God to Glory Ministries.
