It was during one of these encounters when Mike Tyson Walked in on Robin Givens sleeping with Brad Pitt. The heavyweight champion was furious with the Hollywood celebrity and also claimed to hit him. In an old appearance on In Depth With Graham Bensinger, Mike said, “I was mad as hell! I was going to…you should have seen his face when he saw me. I was due a divorce but every day I would go to her house to have sex with her. This particular day, someone beat me to the punch. I guess Brad Pitt got there earlier than I did.”
Apart from this, Mike Tyson also wrote in his book about the incident where he claimed Brad Pitt said, “Dude, don’t strike me, don’t strike me.” He added “You had to see the look on his face. He looked like he was ready to receive his last rites. He also looked stoned out of his gourd.”
