Boxing fan pokes Mike Tyson in the face just days after legend punched passenger

Mike Tyson was antagonised by a boxing fan who put her finger in his face last weekend, just days after the legend punched a passenger on a flight.

The legendary heavyweight was recently filmed hitting a passenger on a flight bound for San Fransisco, with the victim later identifying himself as Melvin Townsend III who has since been accused of harassing Tyson. Tyson claimed he had a bottle of water thrown over him during the incident, an allegation which was denied.

Another fan has now attempted to antagonise Tyson during the latest viral incident, after he made an appearance ringside at Shakur Stevenson's victory over Oscar Valdez in Las Vegas. The 55-year-old stopped to take photos with fans when a woman leaned over and put her finger in his face in a bid to encourage the star into taking a photo of her own.
