Former world champion Mike Tyson (50-6, 44 KOs) has revealed his top five boxers of the modern era, but none of them are in the heavyweight division.
Axar.az reports that Tyson’s comments were shared on the YouTube channel "Pound 4 Pound with Kamaru & Henry."
"Who are the top five boxers right now, in my opinion? I’d include David Benavidez, Terence Crawford, Errol Spence, Shakur Stevenson, and Gervonta Davis,” said Tyson.
It should be noted that on November 15, Tyson will have a fight with blogger Jake Paul. In Paul’s last fight, he secured an early victory over former UFC fighter Mike Perry (0-2 in boxing). The match took place in the cruiserweight division (up to 90.7 kg).
Tyson ended his professional boxing career in 2005, with a record of 58 fights (50 wins, 6 losses, and two no-contests). In November 2020, Mike participated in an exhibition match with Roy Jones. The fight consisted of eight two-minute rounds and ended in a draw.
Tyson is considered the youngest boxer in history to win championship titles in the WBC, WBA, and IBF. He is also the first heavyweight boxer to hold the WBC, WBA, and IBF belts simultaneously.
