Mike Tyson's First Words on Oleksandr Usyk vs Rico Verhoeven Superfight! Mike Tyson praised Rico Verhoeven for his longevity and "scary" presence as the undisputed heavyweight kickboxing king, particularly as he prepares for his crossover boxing match against Oleksandr Usyk. Mike Tyson described Verhoeven as an absolute beast, marveling at his 11-year reign as the GLORY champion. Tyson expressed that kickboxing and GLORY in particular doesn't receive the respect it deserves, noting that Verhoeven's fights are "intense action" and "crazy wars" compared to some MMA clinching. Mike Tyson noted that while Usyk has superior technical boxing, Verhoeven’s 270 lbs frame and "scary" power make him a dangerous threat who only needs to land "one clean hit". Mike Tyson interviewed Verhoeven as far back as GLORY 19, has recently reiterated his respect for Verhoeven's willingness to "take risks" and step out of his comfort zone to challenge the best technical boxer on the planet.
