Mike Tyson Slugs Mayweather: 'He's A Very Small, Scared Man'
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- Boxing great Mike Tyson thinks Floyd Mayweather is "delusional" for putting himself in a class above Muhammad Ali.
And then, speaking to the Undisputed Champion Network ahead of Saturday's fight of the century, Tyson unleashed a vicious body blow.
"Listen, if he was anywhere near that realm of greatness with Ali, he'd be able to take his kids to school by himself. OK?" Tyson said of Mayweather, who's known to travel with a beefy security detail. "He can't take his kids to school by himself and he's talking about he's great? Greatness is not guarding yourself from the people. Greatness is being accepted by the people. He can't take his kids alone to school by himself.
"He's a little scared man. He's a very small, scared man."
Tyson wouldn't predict a winner with Mayweather set to finally get in the ring with Manny Pacquiao, though he said it'll end in a knockout.
In another interview, Tyson picked Pacquiao over Mayweather, according to the New York Daily News.
