Jorge Masvidal Left Stunned by Mike Tyson’s ‘Savage’ Training Routine

UFC welterweight contender Jorge Masvidal is as tough of a fighter as one could expect. The former title challenger made a name for himself on the underground street fighting scene in Florida before making his way into the UFC. Since then he has had a rocky career, with a resurgence after beating Ben Askren and Darren Till.

Moreover, he would even beat UFC veteran Nate Diaz, for the BMF belt before he went on to lose to Kamaru Usman twice. While ‘Gamebred’ would consider himself tough, he thinks there is a man whose dedication to his craft cannot be matched. That man is none other than boxing legend Mike Tyson who Masvidal idolizes. However, even he was left stunned after seeing how Tyson worked out during his time as a boxer.

Jorge Masvidal reacts to Mike Tyson’s training routine

The Florida native recently shared a photo of Iron Mike’s training routine and was left stunned after seeing it. The first task in this routine was a 3-mile run at 4 a.m. This would be followed by a 10-round sparring session at noon with ring techniques and cardio at 3 p.m In the evening the routine focused on strength training with a full-body workout at 5 p.m and 30 minutes on an exercise bike at 8 pm.

Masvidal, who was shocked at this, penned a one-word reply to this routine, “Savage” he wrote. This certainly is a monstrous workout with no normal human being even thinking of trying it. However, for Tyson, this was a daily routine that forged him into a warrior who would eventually conquer boxing, becoming the youngest heavyweight champion.

Bodybuilder gets destroyed after working out like Mike Tyson

Back in 2020, A YouTuber and Bodybuilder, Gabriel Sey wanted to see if he could replicate ‘Iron Mike’s workout. However, this would not be a great decision for him. He couldn’t nearly keep up with the intensity of these workouts.

Moreover, he even argued whether Tyson himself could have completed these workouts. “I kind of want to call bulls**t on this whole routine. The sparring took a while in itself… it’s a ridiculous amount. I’m a wreck right now.” He said.

Although Sey couldn’t keep up with this workout, it’s hard to say if a prime Tyson would fail to do so too. Iron Mike was a beast in his prime and had an unwavering mentality not found in your average athlete. Moreover, some of the exercises of his workouts seem inhumane to this day with fans still wondering what ‘Kid Dynamite’ was made of.
