    Drivel.

    The “Baddest man on the planet” is in MMA, not Boxing.

    As you were...

    That was clearly a joke. And if it wasn't obvious enough, you should have watched his other interviews where he stated that they will be working on much more and that Tyson Fury will become an even better boxer with a bit more work.

    Not sure if Mike Tyson was the first Baddest Man of the Planet, curious if anybody knows if Sonny Liston was ever referred to as the Baddest Man in the Planet? or was it later comparison given by 1980s journalists comparing Tyson to Liston?

    The Baddest Man in the planet title is not lineal as those are self-made men, but in the heavyweight it can be re-constructed as:
    • Jack Dempsey
    • Sonny Liston
    • George Foreman
    • Mike Tyson
    • Ike Ibeabuchi
    • Deontay Wilder

    The "Baddest Man on the Planet" is probably in the Chechen Mafia or something ....... not boxing and not the MMA

    I think Tyson came up with saying hitting people with bad intentions and maybe it came from that?

    Not to derail, but that "baddest man on the planet" can be wiped out with single precision missile strike if need be.

    Will be interesting if someone can post the first video or article mentioning the exact phrase: Baddest Man in the planet

    More than likely it started after 1991, but if someone has earlier mentions of the phrase that will be nice. It could have been incepted into Tyson consciousness from the old man of the catskills stories.

    Should stay in boxing: lot more healthier to fight two fights in a year than daily drinking, eating and coke snorting.

    Nonsense. The UFC HW champ is a failed boxer and The Gypsy King has already called him out and threatened to harvest his soul and shatter his chin over in his domain the Octagon and mark my words that's exactly what will happen if any of those UFC chumps can manage to pluck up the courage to step up to the plate against The Gypsy King.

    My people (gypsies) have no interest in crotch sniffing sports but if we did we'd dominate them too like we do boxing.

    And the title of the ''Baddest Man on the Planet'' is synonymous with the ''King of the Gypsies. They basically mean exactly the same thing.

    Exactly. But folk are always raining on a gypsy man's parade when we achieve something and it doesn't have to be something monumental either. It can be something as simple as giving your 5 berth a new coat of paint or managing to make enough hedgehog stew from 10 hedgehogs to feed the entire caravan site.
