Tyson named only American fighters
Boxing legend, 58 years old Mike Tyson announced his list of top 5 boxers, regardless of weight category.
It is noteworthy that “Iron Mike” did not include Ukrainian Alexander Usik in his P4P rating. Thus, Tyson named only American fighters: David Benavidez, Gervonta Davis, Shakur Stevenson, Terence Crawford and Errol Spence.
“Benavidez, Tank, Shakur, when he has the type of opponents that Gervonta fought. Of course Crawford, and look, I like Spence. I think Errol is capable of regaining the title. Spence is an underrated fighter.”
On June 30, “Iron Mike” turned 58 years old. In November 2020, Tyson had an exhibition fight with former world champion in five weight categories, Roy Jones. The match ended in a draw. On the undercard of the event, Jake Paul knocked out Nate Robinson.
Tyson had his last professional fight in 2005. Mike lost by TKO in the sixth round to Irishman Kevin McBride.
On November 15, “Iron Mike” will fight against American actor, YouTube blogger and boxer Jake Paul. The event will take place in Arlington, Texas, at AT&T Stadium.
