“I see Mike ball up his fist and Mike just throws the punch from right past my shoulder. I don’t know if you’ve been shot at before, I’ve been shot at before, and it’s a scary feeling. So there’s a thing that a bullet does when it goes past you, there’s like a heat. Like you ever seen the movies and the blur?”

“That’s what went by my shoulder when Mike Tyson connected to Max Pierre chest. He punched Max in the chest and I know you remember this Max. Yo Max whole chest cavity caved in and he went back like this and he shot past people.”

Beckford then revealed he tried to stop Tyson by putting himself in the way.
