MIKE TYSON’S former photographer has claimed that the legend tried to grab her breast in the 1980s.
Award-winning snapper Lori Grinker , 65, made the claim during her new pictorial book, ‘Mike Tyson,’ which includes a collection of photographs from the boxing star’s teenage years into the 1990s.
Mike Tyson’s ex-photographer has claimed that the legend tried to grab her breast in the 1980s
Lori Grinker made the claims in her new book
In the book’s preface, she wrote: “Mike could be very sweet and gentle when he was feeling it, and not very sweet or gentle when he wasn’t.
“He once tried to grab my breast, and when I pushed him away, he got angry and threw my light meter in the snow.
“He had a somewhat spoiled side and, being the champ, grew accustomed to getting his way.”
However Tyson, who pockets £500k-a-month from his cannabis empire, has not denied the story, instead he is saying that the pair were in a consensual sexual relationship when he was “around 17” and she was in her mid 20s.
The Daily Mail states that Grinker informed them that the then “immature teenager” Tyson never tried anything like that again and they continued to have a professional relationship.
But Tyson’s representatives told them: “In this day and age it’s unfortunate that Ms. Grinker was not more careful with her words omitting the fact that she was in a sexual relationship with Mike Tyson when he was a minor with almost a decade age difference.”
Grinker then stated that Iron Mike, 56, was inaccurate in his claim.
Then in a separate email to the Mail, Tyson’s spokesperson indicated that the pair, who met when he was 13, started their supposed relationship around 1983.
They stated: “He was around 17 and had sexual relationship (sic) with her on & off until about 21. He had sex with her also when he was champion in Atlantic City.”
Tyson’s spokeswoman initially described the former heavyweight as a “minor” in the claimed relationship, although they went on to explain that “minor is generally legally defined as a person under the age of 18.”
The Mail added that if “the alleged affair did occur when Tyson was 17, it would not have violated New York State consent laws enacted in 1965.”

Punching Techniques
There are seven types. Each punch comes with its own technique. Some punches require more force than others. For example, an uppercut requires great force. On the other hand, a straight punch requires less power but it is faster than other punches.
There are also different combinations. These are combinations of punches that work together to achieve a specific goal. A combination may have multiple parts. For example, a combination of a left and right hook will result in damage to the opponent’s jaw.
Guard Techniques
To defend himself from being attacked, a boxer uses his entire body. He uses his arms, legs, elbows, knees, knees, and feet to do this.
Legs
To defend against kicks, a boxer should use his legs. He raises his leg when he is hit with a kick and then moves away from the opponent. To avoid being kicked on the sides, he bends at his knees when the attacker strikes from the front. However, if the attack comes from behind, he stands up straight and blocks the kick with his foot.
Elbows
Because elbow strikes inflict a lot of pain, they are very effective. An elbow strike can be delivered either directly or indirectly. Directly means you hit your opponent directly with your forearm. While indirectly, it means you hit him with another section of your arm.
Hands
Boxers use their hands to block incoming blows. Boxers use their hands to stop incoming punches. They raise their fists up above their heads and move towards the attack. The attacker’s fist is then in their face.
Knees
A boxer should bend his knees in order to absorb any blows to his stomach, abdomen, chest or stomach. A lot of boxers use knee strikes to defend themselves.
Feet
When attacked, a boxer should step back and deliver counter-attacks. This allows him to put distance between himself, his opponent, and the ring. A boxer must also maintain his balance when responding to an opponent’s counter-attack.
Stances
Boxing is only possible if a boxer has a clear stance. His stance will determine how he defends. It is how he positions himself and where he faces the opponent. Boxers have many options for stances. Here are some of the most common ones:
- A low stance
- High stance
- Southpaw stance
- Western stance
Body Movement
A boxer must change his position, speed and rhythm in order to win the fight. This involves changing position, speed and rhythm.
Rotation
A boxer will rotate his arm when he is throwing a punch. The rotation is done at different speeds depending on the type of punch.
Combinations
Timing of each punch is crucial to the effectiveness of a combination. A combination is good if it starts with a strong punch then ends with a weaker one.
Spare parts
Sparring is a practice session designed to improve boxing skills . A sparring session is where a boxer trains both his mind and his body. The goal of sparring is to learn to fight, and not to get hurt.
It is important to be patient and dedicated when learning how to box. You need to train hard and long in order to become a better boxer.
