Mike Tyson, at one time, was one of the greatest boxers of all time. What made him click with the audience was that he was much more than just a boxer. He was an entity with his own persona and charisma, unlike any other during his time. But due to unforeseen circumstances, there came a time when Tyson had to step down from his throne.

And now, this WWE legend is comparing the WWE Women’s Champion to the successful version of Tyson. The only difference between them is the seriousness of the sport. While she might be not comparable to Tyson in fame and popularity now, she is turning heads every day.

WWE Legend compares Women’s champion to Mike Tyson

While talking about Bianca Belair’s championship reign, WWE legend, D-Von Dudley said, “She’s doing everything right. She’s taking everything, you know. I look at it this way. Do you know when Mike Tyson lost against Buster Douglas, Was Douglas better than Mike Tyson? Absolutely not. He caught Mike Tyson on a bad day, so that’s all that it was. So, if Mike Tyson was at his best during that fight with Buster Douglas, Mike would not have gotten defeated.

Mike stopped training. He stopped doing everything he was supposed to do to get to the dance. Bianca Belair is not doing that. I think Bianca Belair, I don’t know if she’s a Mike Tyson fan, but I do know that she’s not taking time off. She knows that women in the WWE are gunning for her.

“She also knows that the women in WWE are probably the best and top female wrestlers of all time now. So, therefore, she’s got to put on her A game and not take these women lightly and I don’t see her doing that at all. And that’s why she’s always on the top because she’s always prepared.

There is no mistake that Belair is one of the most consistent women wrestlers in the company right now. If we were looking at her previous matches, she has been killing it. Whether it was Sasha Banks, Becky Lynch, or Bayley. The only one she has yet to pin from the four horsewomen is Charlotte Flair.
