Mike Tyson on ESPNRadio1100 in Las Vegas said his favorite fighter is Fedor Emelianenko, and said he has his eye on UFC heavyweight champ Brock Lesnar.
“Brock Lesnar is a very exciting fighter,” said Tyson. “Now you have to count that he has a great deal of intestinal fortitude from what happened from the last fight. So you can never count him out now. Cause now you know his pain threshhold is off the roof now. He’s big. He’s powerful. He’s fast and he can handle pain as well as he can dish it.”
Tyson also said James Toney’s first MMA fight could be “detrimental to him.”
