While most would jump out of their skin if Mike Tyson tried to punch them, Floyd Mayweather had a completely different reaction.
The rivalry between the pair of boxing titans came to a head during the WBC convention at the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, back in 2015.
yd Mayweather reacts to Mike Tyson pretending to hit him
Blessed with Earth-shattering power and a fearsome aura, Mike Tyson is undeniably one of the most terrifying men to have ever set foot in the ring.
With his infamous peek-a-boo smile, the legend bobbed and weaved in front of his opponents before unleashing his trademark combinations that, once detonated, resulted in his rivals crashing towards the canvas.
Following a successful career, Tyson hung up the gloves, leaving the door open for Floyd Mayweather to take the baton and become the next star of American boxing.
With frightening speed and precision, he started his career as ‘Pretty Boy’ before later transitioning into the defensive genius referred to as ‘Money’.
While the legend possessed remarkable skills inside the squared circle, it was his larger-than-life personality that attracted the fans.
Whether people wanted to see him win or lose, they tuned in to watch the chaos unfold.
Despite appreciating the Michigan fighter’s greatness, Tyson took exception to the four-weight champion claiming he was better than Muhammad Ali, with the heavyweight branding the icon ‘delusional’ during an interview with UCN.
Thus, when the pair met on stage, ‘Iron’ pretended to throw a punch at Mayweather, before chuckling and walking away.
However, while most would probably implode at the mere thought of the ex-heavyweight champion hitting them, to his credit, the Hall of Famer didn’t even flinch.
