He said, “I don’t know, I probably got to see ‘em working out. I probably got to see their first…I think Roy Jones would beat him if he got wind. Because Tyson was smoking that we*d. Sh*t I don’t know. Roy might be… It depends on who’s taking care of their body.”

The rapper believes that Tyson’s old habits will catch up to him in the squared circle at the Staples Center.

Boosie said, “They’re both, you know, up in age so. I think it’s going to be who takes care of their body the best. Who can last the most. Because once you get tired, I don’t care how hard you hit, that sh*t gets soft.”
