Mike Tyson recently named a contemporary boxer whom he would hesitate to face in the ring

Legendary heavyweight Mike Tyson spoke about the top athletes of today.

The retired American boxing legend disclosed that he would be afraid to step into the ring with David Benavidez, a former two-time world champion in the super middleweight division.

“David is so underrated but so over-polarising. I’d be afraid to fight him, too, if I was in that division. No one even has a chance against him, it appears to be. I’m talking from facts.”

“Benavidez is going to beat Caleb Plant. He could beat everybody. My money’s with Benavidez until he gets beat, and then if he gets beat I’m still with him. It’s his attitude. He was a little heavy fat kid, and he wanted to prove himself to the world. The greatest fighters in the world are the most insecure fighters. I think he beats everybody he gets in the ring with, so I don’t have to say nobody’s name or anything," Boxing Social quoted Tyson as saying.
