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.

Dillian Whyte has called for a third fight with Derek Chisora.
Whyte and Chisora had two crazy battles, with “The Body Snatcher” winning both fights, the last of which took place in 2018.
The 38-year-old has not fought since a first-round loss to Moses Itauma, but is looking forward to meeting Chisora again, who is coming off a loss to Deontay Wilder earlier this month.
At the end of last year, both teams were linked with each other, but they failed to reach an agreement.
“He says he wants to fight me and he’s not going to retire,” he said Sky Sports News.
“Not many boxers have trilogies in their career.
“I would love to fight him again.
“I think a trilogy would be great because we’re both at a stage in our careers where there won’t be a lot of running, a lot of moving around.
“We will stand there and trade.
“He doesn’t like me, I don’t like him.

“He doesn’t want to lose to me, I don’t want to lose to him.
“I would like to wear this.
“If Derek is earnest, he knows where I am. I will fight Derek Chisora tomorrow.”
Chisora fought until his 50th fight and, he claimed, it was the last time in his professional career against Wilder.
The 42-year-old fell twice after losing a split decision at the O2 Arena and has not fully confirmed his retirement since.
Had Whyte not secured a fight against his British rival, he claims he would have been open to fighting either Wilder or Andy Ruiz Jr.

“I would like to fight Andy Ruiz, Deontay Wilder and another guy called Nelson Hysa, he is number 1 in Albania,” he added.
“I would like to fight such fighters because of their good position in the rankings, and they are top fighters.”

“My plan was this [to] come up, win two titles, come back and make this fight with me and Bivol even bigger.
“My dream is to become unified champion.
“It would be wise for me to go back downstairs.”
