The rivalry between the two-time heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and the five-weight class champion Floyd Mayweather is everlasting and apparently, it surfaced in the tone and cutting remarks they put forth about each other. Unlike other fighters, they didn’t throw insults at each other. It is the difference of opinion between the legends that keeps escalating.

Recently, in an episode of the podcast ‘Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson, ‘The Baddest Man on Planet’ targeted the lifestyle of ‘The Best Ever’. While discussing the undefeated stalwart, the 55-year-old said, “Oh! that’s scary though yeah Floyd Mayweather is creepy, he’s too strict”

Notably, ‘The Baddest man on Planet’ said so because, unlike other celebrities, ‘The Pretty boy’ of boxing has a very sober lifestyle. He didn’t drink and smoke. But regardless of this fact, he threw massive bashes, hang out with friends in clubs, and collected elite wine bottles. Apparently, he did everything but without exposing himself to smoking and drinking.

Interestingly, a man with such colossal achievements and enormous wealth who had lived his life with such discipline is amazing. Whereas ‘Iron’Mike’s life was just the opposite. He is termed as ca*****s God. ‘Kid Dynamite’ did every kind of drug, tasted different drinks, and openly smoked. For the uninitiated, he did it in open.

So the difference of opinion towards life made Mike Tyson call Floyd Mayweather a ‘creep’.
