“Ain’t that Some bullsh*t”- Mike Tyson Slams Jean Pascal for Abusing PEDs

Badou Jack came in as a guest on the latest episode of Mike Tyson and Henry Cejudo’s Hotboxin’ podcast. Jack spoke about why his fight with Jean Pascal on June 6th, set under the Logan Paul-Floyd Mayweather card, fell through.

He shared that his much-awaited rematch with Jean Pascal did not work out because he tested positive for multiple PEDs before the fight.

To this, Mike Tyson reacted by wanting Pascal to vacate his WBA light-heavyweight title and questioning the WBA’s inaction on the matter.

“Ain’t that some bullsh*t. And you still beat his a**. He was looking like that for too f*****g long, you know. Why can’t they vacate his title? He has to!

“Why are they giving this guy so many breaks?” said Mike Tyson, in response to Badou Jack explaining the reasons behind the fight’s collapse.

However, around the release of Tyson’s earlier-filmed podcast with Badou Jack, Jean Pascal was officially stripped of his champion status.

WBA rules and regulations suggest no boxer who has tested positive for a banned substance can be ranked, keep a title or take part in a WBA sanctioned fight within six months of the test.

However, Pascal will have an option to ask for a re-assessment of his sample to get the WBA to review its decision.
