Having a career that is praised by the whole world, and currently being a boxing legend, Mike Tyson still gets upset when someone shows contempt for boxing legends.

After ending his boxing career, Floyd Mayweather proclaimed himself the “GOAT” of Boxing (best puncher ever). The statement of “Lonely and Defeated” comes from his record of absolute wins in 50 professional matches, surpassing former world heavyweight champion Rocky Marciano, who retired with 49 wins.

Tyson disagrees with Mayweather’s logic and made this clear on the Hotboxin podcast. “Iron Hand” said: “Floyd is a great fighter, but don’t get me wrong. Listen, Sugar Ray Robinson had 40 wins at the beginning of his career. Then he lost 1 match but continued according to 78 consecutive wins. Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. had 87 wins before drawing. Don’t tell me that someone is the “greatest fighter” with 50 wins.

Mike continued: “Floyd is very good, no doubt about that, but boasting a 50-match winning record? Chavez was 90 unbeaten (89 wins, 1 draw) before losing. He played well. How extreme is it? 8 matches a year? Competing with any opponent in the same weight class. He doesn’t choose the opponent but wants the opponent to choose him.

According to information from the Washington Post, Tyson may compete again and fight MMA legend Fedor Emelianenko in Saudi Arabia in 2024. This is a match that Boxing and MMA fans hope to take place soon.
