Mike “Iron” Tyson wasn’t pleased when criticized bluntly for not being as stellar as “Gypsy King” Fury. In Mike Tyson’s four-hour YouTube podcast, “The Lion’s Den with Mike Tyson and Friends,” featuring Brendan Schaub, Daniel Cormier, and some unexpected guests, they delved into various topics, including Tyson’s prime, which garnered significant listener attention.

The interaction began with a question: “Mike Tyson in his prime versus Tyson Fury. Who wins?” As the 57-year-old was about to respond, former MMA fighter Schaub interjected: “Mike, before you answer, this is not disrespectful, but in my opinion, technically, Fury can box. His footwork is also good. Technically, he’s the best we’ve ever had.”

The “Iron” legend Tyson retorted sharply: “Listen, the fact that he took the name Tyson Fury shows my greatness. I don’t know. And I don’t care if he could beat me or not. His name is Tyson. He could beat me, but I don’t care because he took the name of the greatest warrior ever lived.”

In reality, boxing legend Mike Tyson has always acknowledged the talent of “Gypsy King” Fury, once stating that the British boxer is the greatest heavyweight champion since he retired.

Mike Tyson said on Eurosport: “You can say what you want about Tyson Fury, but I’m very proud. The world heavyweight champion took my name. He’s the best heavyweight champion in the world since I retired.”
