Tyson Offered Blood Money For Murders???

Filed under: Zportz > Legal Matters > Mike Tyson

As if his reputation wasn't bad enough already!

A new report says that during a criminal trial in the NYC on Thursday, a witness testified that heavyweight champ and ear biter Mike Tyson put up $50,000 for a "hit" on members of a vicious Brooklyn drug gang who allegedly shot his former bodyguard, Darryl "Homicide" Baum, to death.

However, the witness went on to say that nothing ever came of the contract.

Baum was gunned down just a few months after allegedly firing nine shots at rapper 50 Cent.

Did Tyson and Fiddy have beef? We didn't know that!

The report also notes that just two weeks after the bodyguard's slaying, Tyson dedicated his knockout fight against Lou Savarese to his "brother, Darryl Baum."

"I love you with all my heart . . . Oh, God, I'm mad," Tyson said at the time.

Don't eff with Mike!

P.S. Even though no one died, putting a hit out on someone's life can still get you in major trouble!

    That would be really interesting if Tyson and 50 Cent have beef considering 50 lives in Tysons former estate in connecticut.

    The myspace fight between Lily Allen and Perez Hilton went into round 2 yesterday, when Lily updated to answer some of Hiltons accusations. The highlights are this: Hilton said Lily was pissed at her record label, Capitol, because they’re promoting Katy Perry, whoever the fuck that is. Lily replied by saying of course Capitol was promoting Katy because Katy is new and Lily hasn’t had a record out on two years. Perez called her a liar and idiot. Touché!

    According to a story Hollywood Grind did on that Hot Topic signing, seven may be generous. Regardless, Hilton put down his bacon long enough to threaten her and stamp his fat feet like the narcissistic sociopath queen he truly is.

    He mentions the famous Capitol Records building and calls her an idiot, but somehow forgets to mention that it’s no longer the Capitol Records building. It was sold two years ago to a New York firm called Argent ventures. But the point to all this is this picture, which Lily made (saved as chubbshiltonartwork.jpg) and even used as her myspace icon for a brief while yesterday. The lesson to be learned here is, don’t fuck with Lily Allen. The only way she could own him any more is if she wacked him on the head with a shovel and then buried him alive.

    Tyson had to sell his mansion to his soon to be ex wife for $1.00 so his wife could sell it for 13 million to 50 cent

    i dont think they have beef cause 50 lives in his house. Why would you live in the enemys house when the enemy knows all the little secrets of the house. Plus tyson could have just told him no even though 50 gave them cash for the place

    I doubt Fifty Cent and Tyson have any "beef." I live in a neighboring town in Connecticut and Fifty Cent bought Tyson's estate in Farmington, CT years ago.

    Putting a hit out on a gang member…hmmmm….why not?? Let's do the math…kill one killer…save that killer from killing many more…sounds ok to me.

    Doesn't 50 life in Tyson's old Mansion…Maybe that was his attempt at a big ole FU at Tyson?

  34. z says – reply to this


    34

    no one with any credentials was willing to take the contract for that amount. to hit those cats he needed to come up with at least 500,000 but his broke ass couldn't do it.

  35. TMZiz says – reply to this


    35

    How does this even remotely give hints that 50 and Tyson have beef, wouldnt it be the other way around..since they both wanted to kill the same guy??

  36. DYsOT says – reply to this


    36

    It a well know fact that Darryl and Tyson was best friends (Darryl even lived in Tsons house at one point)

    Tyson didn't have shit to do with 50's shooting… Darryl Baum was a friend of Tysons, but also a friend og Kennneth Supreme Mcgriff (ring a bell??)

    + all you idiots saying 50 bought his house from Tyson couldn't be more wrong… Tyson's ex wifey got the house when they were divorced, and 50 bought the house from her (not from Tyson… Tyson didn't have shit to do with it, it wasn't even his house anymore)

    hey, 50 and tyson look alike! oh wait, i forgot. all monkeys look alike. oopsie!

    If 50 and Tyson had beef, then that might explain why 50 bought Tyson's old house….a final "I got yo a.s.s." statement!

    Man….Tyson is getting FAT!

    hey Perez, I am sure that I do not have to tell you that 50 bought Tysons mansion in Vegas right?
    (since you are a big investigative reporter ans all)

    Re: DYsOT
    get your facts straight- it was his house- my model friend Luz was Tysons girl and lived there with him.

    RITE YALL NEED TO UNDERSTAND THE SCRIPT
    1. 50 CENT CLAIMS TO BE AN EX-DRUG DEALER FROM QUENS NOT BROOKLYN. SO IT CAN'T BE HIM.

    2. THEY DO NOT HAVE BEEF BECAUSE WHEN MIKE TYSON SOLD HIS HOUSE TO FIFFTY HE GAVE FIFFTY SOME OF HIS FURNITURE SO THE R GOOD FRIENDS

    3. GET REALLY BOYS

    50 only spent about 6 mil on the house Tyson owned. The house was originally listed at(I think) 40 mil. Mmmmm!

    I don't like Tyson at all, but let's face it. If someone shoots your bodyguard, you're fully justified in hiring someone to avenge them.

    My God Perez, do you any good news on black folks at in the industry? Jeez! Every now and then that I think, oh finally a black celeb, it's in the legal matters folder. I'm appalled dude, makes me sick!

    PS: I don't care what some folks might say about the "victim" card when it comes to racial issues, unless you prove me wrong (with more than just a couple of articles on the whole website)
