Mike Tyson has been regarded as one of the greatest boxers of all time. So, if he praises you, you know you are good. And he had a lot of good things to say about Coco Gauff. He not only called her the future GOAT but also a great example of kindness, courage, and tenacity.

In addition to all this, Mike also posted a video of him teaching young Coco how to box. Maybe, she might just become a really good boxer in addition to being a great tennis player. If that happens, Mike would probably have even more good things to say about her.

Mike Tyson probably said so many good things because he sees himself in her. Just like Coco Gauff, Tyson was also very young when he rose to the top. In fact, he was the youngest heavyweight champion in the world and he expects Coco to set many records like him.

If Coco plays the way she is playing, she will definitely live up to these expectations. She has just been playing better and better which has led her to beat players like Venus Williams and Naomi Osaka. She clearly wants to be the best and to do that she will have to win some major titles.

Unfortunately for her, she will have to wait for the opportunity as the WTA Tour has been suspended. It is scheduled to return in July when we’ll hopefully be able to see Coco win her first slam.
