Legendary American heavyweight Mike Tyson named the only boxer with whom he did not want to fight, Sports.kz reports with reference to Sport.ua.
Tyson singled out the former absolute world heavyweight champion Riddick Bowe.
“I love Riddick Bowe. We went to school together. Because of the conscience that I have, I did not fight him. I respect him. It was because of mutual respect that we never entered the ring,” Tyson said.
Bowe suffered only one defeat in the pro ring, losing to Holyfield. However, in two other fights, Riddick defeated Evander.
