On Wednesday, Mike Tyson showed up to the press conference for Saturday's fight between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather. During his time there, Boxing Junkie got Tyson to briefly speak on Mayweather claiming he's better than Muhammad Ali. “The guy is going around saying he is better than Ali. I don’t want to hear that (expletive)." When asked about his thoughts on Floyd, Iron Mike responded, “I was always told by my mother that if you can’t say anything nice about someone, don’t say nothing.”

But, when the Undisputed Champion Network caught up with Tyson, he didn't hold back. When asked once again about Floyd's stance on being the greatest boxer of all-time, Mike called Mayweather "very delusional," broke down why he would never be considered in the same realm as Ali and ended it by referring to Floyd as "a very small, scared man."  

Mayweather has more important things to worry about at the moment, but don't be surprised to get a response to Tyson's comments from Floyd sometime in the near future.
