Mike Tyson has already called for “illusion” by Floyd Mayweather before their spectacular clash, which is set in the spring of 2026. The fight was confirmed by both icons and Will Marek Tyson, since he withdrew from the transition to Jake Paul in November last year.

With rubbish between the couple, which is to accelerate, it seems that “Iron Mike” has already landed the first glove when it comes to verbal sparrings. Tyson was brutally criticized by Mayweather Jr, 48, in May, after the bold claim of the latter, that he was better than tardy, great Muhammad Ali. In an interview with YouTube, Tyson quickly lay down on his American counterpart. “He is very delusional, he can’t listen. If he was near this Kingdom of the Great Ali, he would be able to take his children to school himself,” said Tyson. Continuing his Tyrada, he added: “He can’t take his children to school and says that he is great? Size did not lose himself from people, the size is accepted by people. He cannot take his children to school. He is a bit scared man … a very petite, scared man.”

Ali is the only warrior who won the linear heavyweight linear championship three times, and his heritage includes a legendary duel, such as “Rumble in the Jungle” against George Foreman.

During the interview with First Post, Mayweather confirmed his belief that he was a greater star of himself and Ali. “I feel that I did the same in sport as Ali,” he said. “It’s hard for a guy like me, still edged at the age of 38. No respect for Ali, but I feel that I am the best. Ali lost in his career with Leon Spinks. He lost other fights and is still known as the greatest.”

Mayweather disconnected his gloves in 2017, an undefeated professional 50-0 record after defeating the former double validity UFC master Conor McGregor Crossover in the clash. The fighter called “money”, thanks to his 297 million net pounds, conquered several main names over the years, including Manny Pacquiao, Canelo Alvarez, Shane Mosley, Ricky Hatton and Oscar de la Hoya. Despite his retirement, Mayweather could not stay away from a square circle and in the last few years he was involved in several exhibition fights.

Tyson, who is also considered one of the greatest fighters of all time, took over the championship in ponderous weight against Trevor Berbick in 1986 at the age of only 20. He ended his career in 2005 after losing to Kevin McBride.

However, the 59-year-old stunned the boxing world last year after the announcement of his return, accepting YouTuber, which was Paul’s fields. Tyson, however, was not able to turn back the years of the fight because he lost points.

The amazing reports of the meeting between Tyson and Mayweather were confirmed by both last week. Tyson said TMZ: “This fight is not something that neither the world, nor never thought it would happen. I still can’t believe that Floyd wants to do it. It will be harmful to his health, but he wants to do it, so he is signed and happens and happens.”

However, Mayweather remains extremely confident about taking Tyson. “I have been doing it for 30 years and there was not a single warrior who can destroy my heritage,” he said.

On Wednesday, Lewis Crocker heads to Australia to defend his IBF welterweight world title against Liam Paro for the first time.

Crocker will face Paro at the Pat Rafter Arena in Queensland, live on DAZN in the UK and Kayo Sports in Australia.

Crocker (22-0, 11 KO) became world champion in September, defeating Paddy Donovan twice before winning the rematch by split decision.

Man from Belfast recorded his second victory over Donovan after the first victory in March last year, and his rival was disqualified for hitting him after the bell.

Paro (27-1, 16 KO) is trying to become a world champion in two weight categories, having previously reigned in the super-lightweight division.

The Australian has since won twice, overtaking David Papot in his last appearance in September.

The 35-year-old southpaw returned to winning ways with back-to-back stoppage victories.

Talivaa (8-2, 4 KO) last won the IBF Oceania-Orient title, defeating Faiga Opelu by first-round stoppage.

Undercard remaining

At cruiserweight, Luke Modini (13-0, 11 KO) will likely need distance to beat Peng Qu (17-2-1, 12 KO), while Riley Candy (8-1, 5 KO) could stop Nathan Watson (11-3, 3 KO) at super middleweight.

Vegas Larfield (13-1, 9 KO) can hand Shamal Ram Anuj (11-8, 8 KO) his fourth defeat in a row in a featherweight clash.

Heavyweight Nelson Asofa-Solomon (2-0, 2 KO) can secure a third straight knockout over debutant George Burgess, and Stevan Ivic (8-0-1, 2 KO) can do the same against Caleb Tialu (3-7, 3 KO), also a heavyweight.

Prospective super welterweight fighter Jack Javed (1-0) should overtake Lance McDonald (1-5-1, 1 KO).
