MIKE TYSON reportedly offered a zookeeper £9,000 to let him fight a huge silverback gorilla during a romantic night out with his ex.
The boxing legend became the youngest heavyweight champion aged 20 back in 1986.
And “The Baddest Man on the Planet” clearly fancied his chances of going toe-to-toe with anyone… or ANYTHING!
Tyson, 53, revealed his stunning offer came after he bribed a worker to open the zoo back in the late 80s so he and then wife Robin Givens could enjoy a private and romantic stroll among the animals.
