Boxing legend Mike Tyson has hosted a number of guests on his podcast Hotboxin. However, he shattered all expectations when he brought social media sensation Hasbulla who has taken over the internet in the past few years. The podcast naturally went viral on the internet but received mixed reviews from fans. The criticism for the podcast was mainly due to an incident where ‘Iron Mike’ picks up Hasbulla, who suffers from  Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) otherwise known as dwarfism, and nibbles on his ear like a child.

It was also later revealed that Tyson did have an idea about the fact that the Russian star was not a child. Despite this, Hasbulla had a great experience on the show and even thanked the former champion for having him as a guest on his tour of the United States.

On the podcast, the two discussed a variety of topics related to boxing and combat sports. Moreover, Hasbulla, who is known for his comedic personality, brought his unique sense of humor to the podcast. Following this, when it was time for him to leave the Russian wished he had more time to spend with ‘Iron Mike’. He also wanted to get a few fighting lessons from the former heavyweight champion

“I wish I had more time here to spend with you. I wished we could do some training sessions. I’m happy for this time but now I have to go to the airport” said Hasbulla.

Hasbulla’s experience on the podcast with Tyson was undoubtedly a memorable one. He was able to connect with one of his idols and share his own unique perspective on life. However, it was very much unlike the experience former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov had during his visit to Tyson’s show.

Being a stringent follower of Islam, the Eagle doesn’t indulge in any form of mind-altering substances. Tyson on the other hand is known for his use of certain drugs. Therefore, it made Nurmagomedov a little uneasy when he found smoking equipment on the table where the episode took place. In a press conference later he claimed this was the reason why he did not like the meeting.
