Boxing legend Mike Tyson recently shared his two cents regarding a comparison of UFC greats Jon Jones and Conor McGregor.
“Iron” Mike Tyson told Fighters Only that while Jon “Bones” Jones is “bad,” he is also a “decent” and “very shy” kind of person, whereas “The Notorious” Conor McGregor, Tyson simply says, “he’s the man.”
The former “Baddest Man On The Planet” told Fighters Only Magazine the following about Jones and McGregor:
“Conor is very charismatic. Jon Jones is bad, but deep down he’s a decent kind of person and very shy. Whereas this guy, Conor, he’s the man. He reminds me of the old-time boxers, one of those guys that’s just into everything. He walks into the room and everybody stands up. He sucks the air out of the room. He’s just a really interesting guy. He does things nobody else has been able to do, too. He’s kind of like an animated character, one that’s real though. He’s a great fighter, but his personality is even bigger than his talent. Isn’t that crazy? He’s got this huge personality. Nobody in MMA has ever had a personality as big as his. Ronda [Rousey] is just like a monster. The things she would do, but this guy is different. His personality is phenomenal.”
