“That’s an interesting one, man. I personally met and talked with Mike Tyson. The dude has a different switch and that’s the X-factor where could just see something switch in his brain. It’s another level. He’s a killer so if he brings that out, that’s a whole other level.  I’m also a Mike Tyson fan so I gotta lean that way.” [Ht Middleeasy]
