Former Bellator heavyweight champion Vitaly Minakov said he would be interested in a fight between world boxing champion Mike Tyson and a mixed style fighter Fyodor Emelianenko.
In November, Tyson, 58, lost to blogger Jake Paul, 27, in an eight-round boxing match by unanimous decision.
— If Tyson is released into professional boxing, he will be able to make some noise. I saw the Jake Paul fight, I saw times where Tyson underperformed, even though he could have. I don’t know what the nature of this confrontation was. I think Mike is always competitive. The fight between Fedor and Tyson will be interesting. In principle, both are retired from the sport and Emelianenko is already far from being at the top of his game. They are two equivalent sports legends,” Minakov said, as quoted by Metaratings.ru.
In early 2023, Emelianenko announced his retirement from MMA. The Russian has won 40 and suffered seven defeats during his professional career.
