Mike Tyson is undoubtedly one of the greatest boxers ever to tighten their gloves. The former Heavyweight Champion embedded his legacy as one of the most brutal fighters through his breath-taking performances inside the boxing ring. His ferocity was unmatched by any professional boxer at the time. And his intimidating presence sent shivers down the opponent’s spine. Notably, Floyd Mayweather Jr is another gem of boxing. He retired undefeated, a feat not many have been able to achieve in the sport. These two were serious challenges for their opponents. And there have not been many who can claim to have beaten these menaces.

But it seems like the two have a very unexpected challenger. Someone who is certain that his skills and capabilities can beat these two boxing legends. It should be noted that despite never appearing inside the boxing ring, the challenger considers himself the “best boxer ever.”
