Mike Tyson repeatedly calls TV host 'a piece of sh**' when asked about rape conviction

Mike Tyson might have just given the most awkward live TV interview ever.

Tyson recently sat down with Canadian TV presenter Nathan Downer to promote his live show, Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth.

The interview went downhill very quickly when Downer caught Mike, 48, off-guard while quizzing him about his meeting with embattled Toronto mayor Rob Ford earlier this week.

“Some of your critics would say, ‘This is a race for mayor, we know you’re a convicted rapist, this could hurt his campaign.’ How would you respond to that?” asked Downer.

Tyson then snapped at Downer.

“Who said that? You’re the only one I heard say that. I don’t have no comment to that, because it’s negative, you’re being negative,” Tyson said.

“It’s so interesting because you come across like a nice guy but you’re really a piece of s***. F*** you, that was a piece of s***.”

“You’re a piece of s***, you really are,” he added once more.

Downer later turned to Twitter to apologize to Tyson.

“I’m okay everybody. Unfortuantlely my question hurt Mike Tyson’s feelings.  That was not my intentions.  My apolgies for the language (sic),” he wrote.
