The boxing icon’s famous stare and legendary punching power made him one of the sport’s most feared men in history.
Intimidating the likes of Frank Bruno and Michael Spinks before laying on convincing beatings.

But, surprisingly he has admitted there is a current boxer that he himself would be ‘afraid’ to fight – The Mexican Monster’ David Benavidez.

“He’s so underrated but so over-polarised here,” Tyson told ES NEWS of Benavidez.
“Listen, I’d be afraid to fight him too if I was in that division.
“No one even has a chance against him, and I’m talking facts.”
Benavidez had been linked to a showdown with Canelo Alvarez, but the later has shown little interest in making the fight happen.
Canelo had previously suggested he would require a huge purse of $200million to battle it out with Benavidez.
