A man who was likely inebriated got a little too close for comfort with Mike Tyson during weigh-ins for the Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao fight.

The video, above, shows the man grabbing Tyson from behind, then posing for a photo without asking for permission. In response, the retired boxer elbows him twice in the chest -- first lightly, then noticeably harder. Other attendees pull the man away from a clearly creeped out Tyson.

As far as the fight goes, Tyson wasn't impressed.
