While the Columbian was ready to feel the full force of Tyson’s punch, the boxing legend respectfully declined this request. Tyson claimed that he was a peaceful man and did not want to engage in violence. Moreover, this only goes to show how far the former champion has come in controlling his emotions. From being one of the most feared men on the planet to now finding humbleness and peace, Tyson has certainly come a long way.

In the podcast, Tyson’s refusal was certainly a surprise for Balvin. However, the former champion revealed the real reason why he did not want to punch the singer.
