Tyson was quite clear in his answer as he simply said “yeah”, Carlson then tried again and asked the former boxer how he came to that mindset.

He said: “Just think about who I am. I don’t want to go back there any more.
“I don’t want to be in that poverty state of mind anymore.
“Not from a physical perspective, I don’t want to be poverty-stricken here [pointing to his own head].
