Bob Sapp threatens to rip Mike Tyson’s heart out in potential fight
Tyson previously landed a comeback exhibition fight against Roy Jones Jr in 2020, although Sapp was the first name thrown Tyson‘s way as a potential opponent.
“Mike, now we all know what happened when you and I talked about the fight,” Sapp said.
“I sent you a photo along with this sentence ‘Mike if you fight me I will rip your heart out and tear it to shreds’ and it still applies.
“Mike, I’ve got a challenge for you. Since you stopped running, listen to me for a second. You and me and two of my best fighters vs two of your best fighters.
“Stand up, Marquess of Queensbury Rules. Because you’re too scared to fight one on one. I’ll take all of you on, punk boxers.
“That’s my challenge, you know my age. Fight me. Or my crew.”
Was Tyson ever going to fight Bob Sapp?
Tyson has confirmed that in the past Sapp agreed to fight him, but that the organisers ultimately changed their plans.
“How would they like me to fight [Sapp]?” Tyson said in an old interview according to MMA Mania.
“Can I fight him under the Marquis of Queensbury rules? The guy said yes. I said I’ll fight him.
“It went from him to somebody else to some other guy from MMA then this guy and, next thing you know, it came down to Roy [Jones Jr.].
“I’m like, ‘I don’t know what the hell is going on’.”
