Pugilistic prowess aside, if there is one thing that former world heavyweight champion, Mike Tyson, is impeccably competent in, is to get people talking. His podcast has been a testament to the same, as he has often made his guests feel comfortable enough to be themselves and open up. However, this, in turn, has also paved the way for some hilarious incidents and unhinged statements. In fact, a recent guest on the podcast almost put himself in the line of backlash after making a controversial statement.

‘Iron’ Mike was hosting the recent episode of his ‘Hotboxin with Mike Tyson‘ podcast. Moreover, the defensive end for the Los Angeles Chargers, Sebastian Joseph-Day, was present as the co-host.
Meanwhile, ‘The Lost Boy’ hitmaker, Cordae was in attendance as the guest for the episode. It is worth noting that Cordae is tennis player Naomi Osaka’s boyfriend.
Cordae almost lands himself in soup
The trio spoke about a variety of topics including their pasts, spirituality, and the mentors they found on their journey to greatness. In conversation, Joseph-Day asked Cordae if he had a message for the kids watching the episode.
Without skipping a beat, Cordae responded, by saying, “F*ck b*tches, get money.”

Tyson, on the other hand, was amused by his response and nodded in agreement.
Cordae further continued, “Don’t listen to anybody. Like for real, nobody got the answers for your life man. And dream your biggest dream. It’s going to sound f*cking cliche and whatever. But, it’s the f*cking truth.”
While the latter statement was concrete advice for youngsters. Cordae might have put himself in the way of trouble from parents and guardians for his former statement.
Mike Tyson’s daughter ignored Cordae
While Cordae had a ‘special’ message for kids, he was once ignored by one. And this kid happens to be Tyson’s youngest daughter Milan Tyson. Being an avid tennis fan, she once had a chance to meet Cordae and Osaka.
Talking about the day, Cordae said, “Yeah, she didn’t give a f*ck about me.”
