When did Tyson fight Mayweather?
The fundamental difference between the pair is that Tyson is over a decade older than Floyd Mayweather.
A former assistant of 'Iron Mike', Darryl Francis, told USA Today that Tyson's dislike for Mayweather originated from the fact he believed his compatriot called for the raid. Police entered Tyson's Las Vegas home in September of that year after a woman accused him of sexually assaulting her on two occasions.
"Me," Tyson said when asked about his toughest fight by Stephen Fulton Jr. in a recent episode of Hotboxin' With Mike Tyson. "That's been my toughest fight all along."
