Mike Tyson has revealed the one WWE Superstar who scared him after seeing him work up close.

While Tyson made his name in the world of boxing by becoming the undisputed champion of the world, the boxer is also extremely popular with WWE fans.

The 58-year-old is even a WWE Hall of Famer, due to his contribution to one particular storyline involving ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin and DX stable.

Tyson holds a boxing record of 50 wins six losses and two no-contests, with the American set to face Jake Paul at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas on Friday, November 15 after the original date of July 21st was postponed.

The bout will be streamed exclusively on Netflix from the 80,000-seat capacity area – home of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys.

Despite being the most feared man on the planet during his prime, there was one man who scared ‘Iron Mike’ as he admitted WWE’s Mick Foley scared him due to his impressive stunts.

“Goddamn I’m scared of that guy,” Tyson explained on Impaulsive.

“This guy, he experienced death every day of his life. He’s jumping off s**t, running in trucks and cars, man. And he’s normal. He broke every bone in his body and he’s a normal guy, I just don’t know why he don’t like himself so much.”

Two months after Tyson appeared at Wrestlemania in 1998 Foley faced off against The Undertaker where Foley ended up having a dislocated shoulder, a dislocated jaw, broken ribs, and internal bleeding among various other injuries.

The sheer fearlessness of Foley is said to have terrified Tyson, who admitted on the same podcast that he believes anyone he knows could end up killing him.

“From my life, the way I’ve lived and what I’ve seen, anyone has the capability to kill you so you should be apprehensive but that’s just my life, the way I’ve lived, everyone around me, the people I know are all capable of killing people,” Tyson said.
