If someone is brave enough to challenge Mike Tyson’s views, it would be Nate Diaz. The tough fighter from Stockton doesn’t hold back his opinions and isn’t afraid to speak his mind.
During a previous episode of his Hotboxin’ podcast, Tyson spoke highly of Conor McGregor for lasting 10 rounds against Floyd Mayweather. However, Diaz didn’t appreciate Tyson’s praise for the Irish athlete.
Diaz shared a video clip of Tyson complimenting McGregor with added captions overlaying the footage.
“[Conor McGregor] never really had a boxing match in his life, right? He didn’t have a boxing match [before Floyd Mayweather] right? He went 10 rounds with the greatest fighter in the last 100 years of boxing. He went 10 rounds, scored punches on the greatest fighter in the last 100 years. People just want to see the black guy beat the white guy, they just want to see [that stuff]. But look what he had to fight against. And look what he did when he fought against it.”
