Mike Tyson was a big part of the UFC 160 fight weekend, whether it was on stage at the weigh-ins, inside the octagon, being mentioned in interviews, or even deciding fight night bonuses. Several fighters talked about Tyson in their post-fight interviews with Joe Rogan. According to UFC President Dana White, Tyson brings out a child like fandom from even grown men and professional fighters;
“What are we going to do, say ‘no’ to Mike Tyson? I wasn’t about to argue with him…. He had fun this weekend. He’s the Justin Bieber for grown men who like fighting — he makes everybody go crazy. He’s fun to watch fights with, he’s fun to hang around with. I like having him around.”
