In an interview with All The Smoke Fight, boxer Mike Tyson, 58, recalled his encounter with Russian influencer Hasbulla, 22, and revealed that he mistook him for a baby.
The incident took place in 2023 when Tyson was participating in the Hotboxin podcast, which featured Hasbulla Magomedov. The professional boxer went viral after picking him up and playing with him as if he were a child.
“I thought he was a baby,” Tyson commented. “That’s how I am with kids. I was hugging this guy. He’s about 26 years old,” he remembered.
Hasbulla became famous on social media after mimicking MMA fighters. The influencer may appear younger due to a genetic disorder.
Tyson also spoke about his upcoming fight with YouTuber Jake Paul, which was postponed to November 15 and will be streamed on Netflix.
Later this month, Tyson, 58, will face YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul in an anticipated boxing match that will be broadcast live on Netflix.
