Mike Tyson named the UFC legend he sees himself in during the peak of his career

He's still the youngest boxer to win a world heavyweight title, claiming the WBC belt with a destructive performance over Trevor Berbick, aged 20 years, four months and 22 days.He had a special aura and boasted a killer mentality inside the ring, stopping 44 opponents during his incredible career.She made six successful defences of the UFC women's bantamweight title, destroying the likes of Miesha Tate, Sara McMann, Cat Zingano and Bethe Correia.

And ahead of her title defence against Correia, the boxing icon paid Rousey a visit at her training base in California.: "Ronda, she's a lady. Polite, kind, sweet and adorable. But her whole barometer is, she's a killer. She has that killer aura, meaning anything is capable of happening. Whoa! That's exciting before the fight even starts. I think of myself when I watch her.

"It's very humbling, and I was just honored that he would go through the trouble or go out of his way to watch me train," she said."I'm really glad he was able to come, but it won't be until after I beat Bethe and go home and go back to the hotel and look at myself in the mirror for the first time, like he was saying - that's the moment it all hits you. He knows better than anyone what that moment is like.
