Two years ago, Mike Tyson received a social media warning from Mike Tyson after he was battered by a passenger on a plane for throwing water at him.

Mike Tyson's SOCIAL media warning seems to have been fulfilled after he was accused of "battering" a passenger on a plane for throwing water over him.

After reportedly throwing a bottle at him, the former world champion allegedly launched a torrent of punches on another passenger and left him with severe injuries.

According to TMZ Tyson was involved in an argument with an "overly enthusiastic" fan. He sat behind Tyson and continued talking "in his ear" when the American heavyweight asked him "chill".

This incident occurred before a flight that was scheduled to depart San Francisco International Airport for Florida at 10:30pm.

A quote from Tyson is now viral after the trouble. It is said that it was made over two years ago by the Baddest Man on the Planet.

Boxing World UK's Twitter account says that he wrote: "Social Media made y'all too comfortable with disrespecting other people & not being punched in the face because of it."
