Mike Tyson is admired as one of the best boxers of all time. The former champ was heading to Chile to shoot a promo video for a local news station there but was denied entry to the country.
Federal authorities in Chile claim that his legal record was responsible for his rejection. His three-year stint in prison after his rape conviction in 1992 was the issue brought up by Chile. Officials in Chile also said that they would arrange him a flight back to the United States.
