Tyson, 56, told talkSPORT: “Well, he does have boxing experience.
“He boxed before because it shows in his fights and he’s won against people that he shouldn’t beat.
“And listen, I don’t think they brought him here to lose either, because he’s good for fighting and is good for boxing.
“He makes more money than the champions of boxing. So he’s an enigma.”
Comedian and actor Kevin Hart, 43, is also in town for a stand-up gig and could also make his way over to the fight.
