Boxing icon Mike Tyson made a surprising statement involving Michael Jordan and LeBron James. Tyson appeared as a guest on "The Big Podcast with Shaq" on Friday and talked about memorable moments from his career and more.
During a live fan Q&A session, the crew was presented with a question on who would win a fight between Shaquille O'Neal and Charles Barkley. However, Tyson made a startling statement about the Bulls legend.
"Shaq, what's the deal with LeBron (James) and Mike (Jordan)?" Tyson said (48:47). "What did he call him, 'baby James?' Michael Jordan got a woman named LeBron James, you didn't know that? What did LeBron do to him?"•

O'Neal was surprised by it, and he asked his co-host, Adam Lefkoe, to fact-check Tyson's remarks. However, the panel did not talk about it anymore for the rest of the show.
