The way Mike deflected from the real questioned asked and changed the topic was nothing short of brilliant. Clever

Props to Patrick for bringing up Diddy. The truth is is the truth regardless who’s the person doing dirt.

patrick is wild for diving deep on the whole diddy topic

Diddy is the definition of sleek when it comes to getting away with things a time will come he too will face the wrath of the lives he's messed up

Why does everyone avoid Diddy? He is the hand behind all this

“How to answer a tricky question,without directly incriminating someone but explaining it sublimely” masterclass from Iron Mike Tyson.

He's talking about when Diddy was just a promoter for Uptown Records. Mike is never gonna give dirt on anyone....he's gonna tell you how they all came from the same spot and did what they gotta do.

Tyson just answered the question in the affirmative at the end by describing an analogy of how his friend shot his friend!

Mike Tyson said he knew him for a long time but the subtleness. Mike is aware he can't really snitch and wasn't expecting to be asked those type of questions by someone that can't as easily be touched so Tyson had to be careful with what he decided to say -

I followed this for awhile and I'll try to keep it brief. Diddy put out a reward for anyone who snatches Death Row chains, I heard something like $10,000, this was when the East vs West beef was going on. A Crip from LA saw one of the Death Row guys in a mall and snatched his chain. For people who don't know, that's a big sign of disrespect. Fast forward, Tupac was in Vegas with Death Row, the guy who got robbed pointed out the Crip who snatched his chain. Tupac took off on him and started beating him, then the Death Row guys jumped in. That's the famous video of Tupac and Death Row guys stomping a guy out in Las Vegas day he was killed. That Crip is the one that shot Tupac later that day in traffic. I forget his name, but he was good friends with BG Knocc Out. Vlad TV had a bunch of interviews trying to get to the bottom of this. One of the guy's he interviews is the uncle of the Crip who shot Tupac and was with him at the time, he is also a Crip. He got arrested on other charges and as part of the deal confessed and told the cops what happened that day. The Crip who shot Tupac was a well known killer and respected gangster in the streets. It's probably why he couldn't let some rapper disrespect him like that. Anyway, he died in a separate shootout. Apparently, over some debt someone owed him or his relative. If you're interested in this topic you should definitely watch the DJVlad interviews. My final conclusion, I don't think Puff Daddy was like, "I'll pay you to kill Tupac," but his actions definitely started the chain of events that lead to Tupacs death.

More feared Suge than they feared Diddy. Suge had backup, like Diddy, but the difference between them 2 is that Suge would come up to your office and grab you himself. Just look at how he ran over those people, he drove up to meet with people from a movie set, all by himself. You'd never catch Diddy being that brave, or reckless

Wow Mike Tyson switched that topic up real quick 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Mike is so brilliant about how to answer by not answering , calm and composed

2pac the man still getting talked about all around the world 26 yrs later. Pac said he gone be a legend breathing or dead

Philosopher Mike.... he was from the OG era from pac and all legends, " To be a legend you gotta surround yourself with legends"- Mike Tyson

*Tyson went NASCAR and took a bunch of left turns after the Diddy question*

He just low key said Puffy killed Tupac. After being asked the question, he tells a story about one of his friends (Puffy) killing another one of his friends (Tupac).

Patrick totally butchered the explanation to Tyson. It wasn't Diddy who "had Tupac killed"...that's not what the investigation revealed or how Greg Kading explains it. Tupac was with Death Row/Suge Knight and their crew was the MOB Piru out of Compton. They were rivals of Bad Boy out of New York and they would have run-ins every time either of them went to the other person's coast. Diddy was absolutely terrified of Suge Knight and the MOB Piru guys because he knew they were for real and because Suge's very close friend (Jake Robles) was killed in Atlanta in 1994 by Diddy's bodyguard (Wolf) during an altercation at one of Jermaine Dupri's parties. After that incident, things heated up big time and the run-ins started to escalate to death threats and guns being drawn. For protection, Diddy & Bad Boy records started to use Southside Compton Crips for security every time they would go to Los Angeles. They did this because Southside Compton Crips were the direct rival of the MOB Piru (they are both based out of Compton). Diddy felt like he would be more protected against Suge and Death Row if he used their own enemy in their backyard as his "California security" (but Diddy would also hang around these guys in Vegas and occasionally New York). They would do security for him at events, concerts, etc (and they were even present at the Peterson Auto Museum on the night of Biggie's murder). One of the key players in Southside that worked for Diddy was named Keefe D (and he's the uncle of Orlando Anderson - the guy who killed Tupac). To make a long story longer, Greg Kading doesn't know 100% for sure how the exchange went down. He doesn't know if Diddy specifically asked for Southside to kill Suge & Tupac or if it was a casual mention during conversation. Kading seems to believe it was something more along the lines of, "These Death Row guys are becoming a problem. I'd pay anything to make this problem go away" and the Southside guys just kind of ran with it. Tupac's murder was basically a perfect storm. When he went to the Tyson fight on September 7th, 1996, he was walking around the MGM lobby with Suge Knight and the Death Row entourage (that just so happened to be MOB Piru guys). They saw a guy standing by himself named Orlando Anderson, who is a Southside Compton Crip (and associate of Diddy/Bad Boy). The problem is, this guy had just jumped a MOB Piru that was part of the Death Row crew a few weeks earlier at the Lakewood Mall in California and they tried to steal his Death Row chain/medallion. As everyone knows, Tupac and the Death Row/MOB Piru guys ran up on Orlando Anderson and jumped him in the lobby of the MGM and beat him down to get payback. After the MGM fight, Tupac and the rest of Death Row went back to their hotel rooms to change for their performance later that night at Suge Knight's club in Las Vegas (Club 662). After they changed clothes, they went to one of Suge Knight's homes that he had in Vegas so Suge could change clothes and get ready for the night out. During this same time, Orlando Anderson had met back up with the guys he came to Las Vegas with (his uncle, Keefe D, DeAndre Smith, Terrance Brown, and a few others). In fact, one of Mike Tyson's friends from New York named Eric Von Zip was in Vegas that night and met up with the guys from Southside. They were all pissed off because Tupac and Death Row/MOB Piru had jumped on Orlando Anderson and beat him down. They drove to Club 662 to wait for Tupac and his entourage to arrive. They didn't know that they had all gone to Suge's house to chill for an hour and a half before their concert, so they started to get impatient. Eventually, Orlando Anderson, Keefe, and the rest of the guys in the car decided they would just get payback at a later time when they all returned back to LA and they left Club 662. As luck would have it, as they were driving down the street away from the club they heard some girls in a car yelling, "Tupac! Tupac!" They immediately busted a U-turn at the next light and pulled up alongside Suge & Tupac's BMW and started firing off shots into the car as they were all sitting at a red light. A car in Tupac's entourage tried to chase after the white Cadillac (and even exchanged gunfire with them as they chased) but the Cadillac eventually got away. As everyone knows, Tupac would be rushed to the hospital where he'd undergo multiple surgeries to remove his right lung and would eventually die 6 days later from cardiovascular and pulmonary arrest (his mom told them to stop reviving Tupac after they resuscitated him 3X from his heart stopping as doctors tried to hook him up to a dialysis machine). So, Tupac's murder isn't like a lot of people try to make out...where Diddy is sitting in a dark smokey room rubbing his hands together. Diddy was basically terrified of Suge and Death Row and used their mortal enemies as security and things just escalated out of control. It was a perfect storm of the tensions between Death Row & Bad Boy, Suge Knight & Diddy, East & West, and MOB Piru & Southside Compton Crips. Unfortunately, Tupac had no idea the hornet's nest he was stepping into that night in the MGM and how serious things had become. Even as a 25+ year fan of Tupac, it's clear as day he should've minded his own business and not tried to get involved in gang beef.

Basically M.Tyson talked about how people(including Diddy) from where he’s from can be real snakes and can betray and even kill you to get on top. That’s my interpretation of what he said.

It’s true, the hood is like that. I remember a line from a rapper that says “I’m from where you know the suspect and the victim”.

Patrick wanted to ask him if he seen any gay stuff at puff daddy’s party’s 😂 🎉 🌈

10 months later we find out that Diddy has blackmail material on everyone. Really interesting interview in hindsight.

He avoided that question like the plague lmao.

Even if Diddy is either guilty or innocent, iron mike will not snitch

💯 seems as though Tyson didn’t want to elaborate much on diddy being a bad guy or involved with Tupac‘s death

There is an interview where Suge Knight said he was actually on good terms with Biggie and that he had planned to sign Biggie in a year or two to Death Row when Biggie’s BadBoy contract was up with Diddy because he wanted to bring Pac and Biggie together or back together as they used to be homies back in the day. Who really knows what went down but imagine Snoop, Dre, Pac and Biggie all being on the same label and putting out songs together. Would have been something if this plan that Suge said was true and it came to fruition.

Mike didn’t bifurcate the question, he pretty much explained it, he says friends grew up together Tupac’s side and biggies side and they start killing each other. He even mentioned at the end his friend gets shot and ends up at the hospital and later goes to his friends funeral but finds out his other friend shot his friend. (Mike wants you to read in between the lines in his story)

Michael Franzese is nodding like “that’s exactly what happened to us, except we might have worn suits”

Good on you Pat for bringing this up ⬆️ 👍

MOP from Brownsville ... one of the hardest hiphop groups ever.

Never underestimate the genius of Mike Tyson

@5:55 50 Cent “allegedly” killed Mike Tyson’s best friend (Darryl Baum). Darryl Baum is the man who shot 50 Cent 9 times & mysteriously died several weeks later. That’s what Tyson was alluding to.

this has aged well

Mike is slick. To avoid diddler question

Diddy did it, its sad how he's still a free man

So much respect for MR TYSON❤️

Eminem went after Diddy and specifically for putting out the hit on Tupac. The lyrics are in Killshot and he says "the day you put out a hit will be the same time Diddy admits he put out the hit that got Pac killed ahhhhh"

Tyson is too far gone in thier secret societies he would never tell smdh

Mike dodge that route real smooth and Pat understood and left alone

Puffy put a million dollar hit on 2pac and Suge

@ 6:11 Did anyone notice how Mike Tyson asked Michael Franzese if he understands what he’s talking about when explaining the story of his friend killing his other friend…..Michael gave a snarly grin and nodded his head because he knew how the mob would kill close friends and turn on each other due to the mob life.

Eminem hinted about Diddy killing Pac in killshot actually

Mike AIN'T SAYING SHIT He go both ways 2

“But Kelz the next time you get a hit is the day Diddy admits he put the hit out that got Pac killed” Eminem- Killshot

So glad you brought this up. Diddy has become more and more untouchable over the decades. 4:43 wow woulda never thought such a media trained answer from Mike 😂😂😂

Great work hope to collaborate with u on UKposts❤❤Namibia 🇳🇦

Yes, Diddy and Jay Z was in the loop and they were the two artists that reap the most benefits after their death. Jay Z went from nationally unknown to all of sudden after Biggie death had a album ready to go with the full machine behind him. Even when Pac dissed Jay Z we didn't know who he was just NY people mostly.

Lol Mike ain’t gonna let out no dirt 😂

Look.there were 2 people in the back of that White Cadillac that September day. One was Orlando Anderson and the other was DeAndre Smith. Anderson was jumped in the MGM after the Tyson fight. Orlando was a known shooter and was being investigated by Compton PD about 2 other members. He was a legitimate shooter and after being jumped like that he wanted his revenge. The car behind them one of Pacs good friends was in that car,EDI, and he said that a larger arm came out of the rear window and pulled the trigger. Orlando was not a big guy. Dre was about 250lbs. So it was either Orlando or DeAndre that shot Pac and Suge and that’s all we will ever know.

Yes! Tupac, Biggy, Kim Porter, Andre Harrell, Craig Mack Heavy D …,let’s not talk Sex Assault …. Usher. Justin B..,,, the list goes ONNNNN

😂Fat Joe even said Diddy is the master of deception

Puffy might’ve had a hit out on Pac but Pac was killed over a fight. It’s sad but it was that simple. He died the same way Nipsey died. He messed with someone that had nothing to lose.

All i can say is diddy got blood on his hands and that’s a fact he’s been known to be trifling just look at how he treated Craig Mack 🤦‍♂️

Them dudes mike grew up with will go toe to toe with any organization in the world. They did it with all the odds against with racism etc. That's an fascinating story.

Bless both these 2 ....and the truth

I never heard Patrick ask Tyson if he thought Duffy was behind the murder of 2Pac. He kind of got lost in what he was trying to ask Tyson and just asked what he thought of Diddy lol

Would have been cool to hear them speak more on Eazy

Diddy had him killed. R.I.P. Tupac. I hope he gets his.

Money, Power, & Respect......Mike was definitely one of the first NY street celebrities to blow mainstream

This whole situation has been going on for decades and there’s a simple answer . Tupac jumped Orlando Anderson at the mgm and he happen to catch Tupac later slipping and shot him . That’s that for the millionth time

Mike was wild back then that was the coke era, but mike isn't a snitch

Mike being full of life like he is regardless of what he’s seen is rare. God is with us

There goes Pat overstepping his boundaries again asking scandalous questions. Gave some respect for your guests bro not all questions are welcomed. Its called privacy.

Orlando baby lane Anderson killed Tupac over a deathrow chain. Diddy tho might have setup biggie imo.. with all that beef in the west after Tupac died WHY WOULD DIDDY MAKE BIGGIE GO THERE? Just for album sales my @ss. He made way more $ after his death.

It was the retaliation from the brawl that broke out that night with some Crip members. I think Suge has a lot to do with it. Biggie was close friends with Tupac before there rivalry, i don’t see Puff being involved at all.

I love how Mike was able to wiggle his way out of being sued...🤔

Mike won't talk about this shit lmao

Mike, switching the topic real quick 🤔

There's a whole video show and music video about how Tupac got killed. There's also loads of videos on UKposts about it.

PBD - Sometime watch Tupac's movie Gridlock'd with Tim Roth and Thandiwe Newton.

Wow talk about dodging the question lol

Thanks for putting p diddy at the top of the case ..he needs to be held responsible

They won’t let this go till the real truth comes out

Diddy is softer than he is portrayed . Suge was the evil one

PBD is a real one!!

I’m getting so much value from this Valuetainment.

i heard KeefyD was in the white Cadillac with his nephew OrlandoAnderson when OrlandoAnderson fired shots at Suge&Pac from the back window of the white Cadillac.

Eminem brought up the very same thing on killshot.

Thanks Patrick for even bringing up Diddy's involvement. Because we all know of his nefarious plots and schemes. Even diddy's former bodyguard (Gene Deal) has been ousting him on multiple podcasts.

WHO ELSE can get Michael Francese and Mike Tyson in the same interview? Answer: No one. PBD Is legit and unique.

I said this from time Diddy is behind the play. All misdirection, to profit and win and eliminate both opponents at the same time. Fitting narrative.

Never seen mike change the conversation like that.. interesting 🧐

Nice way of admitting the whole puff/pac thing,Tys! Master classman at story telling.

Keefy D

To me mikes not ditching any questions. If you watch enough of his interviews, you see He’s just being himself & talks what on his mind.

100%. Puffy put out the bounty

Diddy was scared of Suge

Tyson got some legs on that mouth of his😂…. Tap Dance out of a verbal situation like a master.

I think Mike while deflecting there from the Diddy question is answering it with an example and saying i got on well with this guy and with that guy but the one killed the other over some street shit, I take that to be the answer indirectly Suge and Diddy beef 2pac and biggie representing their man their record labels dirty tricks being played by both and it ends in the murder of 2 of the biggest hip hop stars ever both were only young early 20s and sadly didn't have the bearings yet to change the direction or slow it down from escalating, if it was 10 years later i think they would of maybe, both were young and impressionable and the answer is both Suge and Diddy are responsible for both deaths because they should of been professionals and looking out for their artists not using them as pawns in a game of chess

Diddy needs to be arrested the Shakur family and the fans deserve a closure

I want to hear Patrick speak Persian (Farsi). I was born in London and speak more Farsi than this guy 😂

Dude is going deep on diddy with no fear

I don't think he was directly behind it. But Diddy preventing Biggie from joining Thug Life and then being the main reason why Who Shot Ya dropped when it did, I would say Diddy is a big reason why both Pac and Biggie died. He has to live with that and answer for it in the afterlife if God exists.

“But Kells, the day you put out a hit the day Diddy admits That he put the hit out that got Pac killed” ~Eminem

I've always heard some strange stuff about Diddy and Ja Rule

Mike can't tell you the truth about puffy because Mike lives by a code

Diddy's background vocals on "Long Kiss Goodnight" always seemed a little too real to me.

Patrick wants to end up like Jamie

Pat wanted to ask about the Diddy parties 🌈 😂

Patrick is a big Dawg no cap, my man!
