Donnie Yen Relives Frightening Near Miss From Mike Tyson In Ip Man 3
Ip Man 3 star Donnie Yen relives a frightening fight scene near miss when he was filming a brawl with Mike Tyson. The first film in the Ip Man franchise was released in 2008, introducing audiences to Yen's titular martial artist. The third film, which was released in 2015, follows Yen's character as he fights to defend a local school from a ruthless gang and a property developer named Frank (Tyson).
During a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Yen recalls a time while filming an Ip Man 3 fight scene in which Tyson came dangerously close to actually punching him in the face. Tyson had relatively little filming experience at the time and Yen, who was a fan of the boxer, remembers being a little nervous. Check out Yen's full comment or watch the interview below (Yen's comment begins at 5:18):
"I’ve always been a big fan of Mike.
