Mike Tyson is most definitely one of the most legendary professional boxers in the history of the sport, and he attended the US Open recently, with fans suggesting he looked high on mushrooms, as seen below. Triller’s latest event featured Evander Holyfield squaring off against Vitor Belfort and getting knocked out in over a minute within the first round. Due to the match’s reception, new regulations will be imposed and that includes banning exhibition matches. Due to this, Mike Tyson and Holyfield may be banned from Triller. Sylvester Stallone has now said Tyson Fury is the best heavyweight ever, not Mike Tyson, in a new interview with Fury.
Mike Tyson recently was involved in an incident, where he punched a passenger named Melvin Townsend, who was bloodied after Tyson hit him in the head many times. This was due to Mike Tyson harassing him and then some.
Mike Tyson recently stated in an interview that he would prefer to appear in WWE over AEW, even if he was offered less money by WWE than Tony Khan and AEW. These remarks generated a lot of buzz and sparked debates among fans and experts.
In response to Tyson’s comments, AEW wrestler Matt Menard criticized him on Twitter, calling him a “mark.” The term “mark” in the wrestling industry is often used to describe someone who is easily fooled or manipulated by a performer’s character or gimmick.
Menard’s tweet suggests that he believes Tyson is naive or gullible for preferring WWE over AEW, despite AEW’s success and growing popularity. The tweet sparked a reaction from fans, with some defending Tyson and others agreeing with Menard’s comments.
Despite Getting “Humiliated” in Front of Millions, Mike Tyson Picks Losing in $7,300,000 Fight as Greatest of His Boxing Career
n his two-decade-long career, Mike Tyson saw the face of defeat six times. An outstanding performance in the post-Muhammad Ali era made him the youngest Heavyweight champion. Later, adding one belt after another, he became a unified champion. Hence, it would be natural for many to think Tyson would pick one of the bouts he fought in his prime as the most significant one of his career if given a choice. But surprisingly, that’s not the case. The match he revealed in a lively discussion with Francis Ngannou turned out to be one where, although he pocketed over $7 million, it left him humbled in front of scores of fans and followers.
Roughly two months from now, ‘The Predator’ will meet ‘The Gyspy King.’ As much as the news on the Heavyweight crossover took many by surprise, reports of Mike Tyson joining the Cameroonian-French fighter’s camp astounded everyone. Clips of the two training together have been going viral for some time. Ngannou was also the guest in one of the most recent episodes of Hotboxin’.
So, the two joined for @Complex‘s ‘GOAT Talk.’ They only needed to pick a card and answer the GOAT question. The first question was about the most outstanding professional wrestler of all time. While Ngannou stated Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair was Mike Tyson’s choice. The next card quizzed the duo about the animal they felt was most significant. It was interesting to see when Ngannou mentioned the lion. Tyson stated, “You know, a Lion’s more of a p*mp mentality, uh, ideology, because he does no work and gets all the benefits.”
Then Mike Tyson shared that the knockout he held dearest to his heart – the Larry Holmes bout – allowed him to avenge Muhammad Ali’s 1980 loss at the hands of ‘The Easton Assassin.’ For ‘The Predator,’ the Alistair Overeem knockout shot up. Then, the two discussed the GOAT sneakers and the fashion era! The GOAT workout song revealed Drake‘s ‘God’s Plan’ for Ngannou and Tupac‘s ‘Ambitionz as a Ridah’ for Tyson.
Both champions agreed that Jon Jones remained the greatest mixed martial arts fighter ever. Then the question came: “GOAT Mike Tyson fight.” The youngest Heavyweight champion replied, “Listen, it’s weird. It has to be my loss to Buster Douglas.” He reasoned that the bout had made him a better fighter. Getting disgraced in front of so many people and then making a comeback speaks volumes about such a person. Tyson said, “.. you’re getting humiliated in front of millions and millions of people and overcoming.. that’s a winner.”
Though the former managed to send Douglas down in the eighth round, it soon became clear that the Ohioan had come prepared. In the tenth round, a flurry of combinations saw Mike Tyson touch the canvas for the first time in his career. He managed to get up. However, the referee had by that time counted him out. Douglas’s happiness lasted only a few months as Evander Holyfield removed his title in October.
