When asked who he would want to fight the most, Mike Tyson did not hesitate for a moment. His choice was clear: Floyd Mayweather.

Tyson exclaimed, “Well, I would love to fight him. I wish he was in my weight class. We could never fight, of course, because of the weight difference, but I wouldn’t fight him the way they do. I would be mean, I would play dirty. Because you have to do everything to fight him because he’s so good. It’s almost impossible to beat him fair and square. It’s tough to beat him. The style he employs – it’s really hard to beat him with that particular style.”

Tyson continued, “I don’t care if people love or hate him, he’s a tough guy to beat. I would fight a guy like Floyd differently if he was in my weight class.”

Tyson’s comments underscore the respect he holds for Mayweather’s skills, despite their longstanding feud. Their rivalry, spanning over 20 years, remains one of the most talked-about dynamics in the boxing world. Tyson’s brutal honesty about the challenges of facing Mayweather highlights just how formidable an opponent Mayweather is, even in the eyes of one of boxing’s greatest champions
