Mike Tyson defends Chris Brown saying "He`s Just a Baby"

Los Angeles, April 23: While the rest of the world came to Rihanna`s support after the infamous assault incident, boxing champion Mike Tyson better known for his violent outbursts has empathised with Chris Brown, saying that it is love that drives one to commit assault. "I understand the situation. I understand passion with young kids. My personal opinion about that is, he`s just a baby that don`t know how to handle his emotions," said the former heavyweight champ during an interview with MTV News, reported Us magazine.

Tyson who was accused of domestic violence by ex-wife Robin Givens and served prison for raping Desiree Washington, a beauty queen, said that the outburst could be blamed on the teenager`s young age. "He`s just a little baby that don`t know how to handle his emotions when it comes to a woman...you look at this person and you might be crazy in love, but we don`t know how to handle those feelings" added Tyson,but was quick to say that he does not condone violence against women. "Do I think it`s right to beat up a woman? No — hell no," he adds. "Have I hit a woman before? Hell yeah. Was I wrong? Hell yeah. I`m a product of that environment. Do I regret ever doing that? Hell yeah. Would I do it again? Never," said Tyson. Bureau Report
