Background

Mike Tyson is an American former professional boxer widely regarded as one of the most fearsome heavyweights in the sport's history. Shortly before his 2003 fight against Clifford Etienne, Tyson had a large tribal tattoo applied to the left side of his face by Las Vegas tattooist S. Victor Whitmill, inspired by tā moko, the facial tattooing tradition of the Māori people of New Zealand. Tyson has referred to it as his "warrior tattoo."
