"Greatness is not guarding yourself from the people, Greatness is being accepted by the people" - Mike Tyson

[KoolGNasBlackThought]

holy shit lol, Mike doesn't play when it comes to Ali. Respect

[BIGFACTSENT]

I already knew Tyson was gonna flip when Floyd said that about Ali, cause Tyson admires Ali dearly and always says Ali's the greatest

[gtk]

Mike Tyson is responsible for some of the most brilliant quotes in American history. He's a genius.

[buster]

I agree what Mike Tyson said about Mayweather!

[BIGDO]

lol, Mike flipped back into pre-fight mode with those comments at the end...

[JRSportBrief]

Mike seems ready to fight somebody at the end! I'd pay to see him in a streetfight right now!

[akiberu]

Mike protected Ali. RIP to the real Greatest..

[hakeemh]

Tyson was pissed about Mayweather s claim on being better than ali

[wowprogression]

People need to understand where this comment about Floyd comes from. Tyson has always had enormous respect for the fighters of prevoius generations. He is an astute student of the game. Naturally he sees Floyd as disrespecting that history while at the same time being completely delusional. This isn't a personal attack on Floyd but more a defense of the fighters who came before. Mike is simply telling truth from the perspective of really the only fighter since Leonard who has been exactly where Floyd is now.

[hectorventura]

He's a scared small man. Tyson haves no respect towards Floyd ... I like it 😂😂

[thegamerousgod]

After the fight Mike Tyson tweeted, "We waited 5 years for that..."

[joshm]

The old Mike came back for a brief moment....haha

[flamesofhope]

A true boxer will not retire with undefeated record, he will retire with everyone remembering his name, not as a coward who run and hug, but a true legend that came out of nowhere and fights to save his family from poverty.

[craigsmith]

Floyd fans be like "man Tysons just a hater he don't know shit about boxing

[femanvate]

"Greatness is not guarding yourself from the people;
greatness is being accepted by the people".
That's quite a profound statement from the greatest heavyweight of all time himself!

[christianmesina]

Greatness is not guarding yourself from the people, Greatness is about being accepted by the people.
