When Mike Tyson Hilariously Bullied Dana White Out Of His Seat

Move, lad.

Mike Tyson sits where he wants.

If he wants your seat, you give it up. Just ask Dana White.

Tyson slaps White on the shoulder, forcing him to change seats on a plush private jet as a smug Tyson sits down with a cushy neck pillow.

Of course, it was just a prank. But it made for hilarious viewing.

The former boxing heavyweight champion of the world is often cageside for some of UFC's biggest fights thanks to his connections with White.

The UFC president even compared Tyson to Conor McGregor who's set to return at UFC 229.

"He's my [Muhammad] Ali. He's my [Mike] Tyson," he said.

White added: "He burst onto the scene and I knew the minute I sat down and had dinner with him that this kid was going to be a star. I didn't know if he'd be able to fight and I didn't know if he'd be able to win a title, but I knew he was going to be a star."

McGregor makes his anticipate UFC comeback in October against Khabib Nurmagomedov.

And across the combative bubble to boxing, Tyson has shared his thoughts on the current heavyweight picture.

Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder hold world titles with Tyson Fury back in the mix following his hiatus away from the sport.

And Tyson reckons Joshua, who owns the WBA (super), IBF and WBO belts, is the best out of the lot.

"Right now, Anthony Joshua seems to be the best out of the whole lot of them," Tyson said.

He added: "He's the stronger guy, bigger guy, more put together, more put together as far as boxing skills are concerned as well.

"I think he's the best fighter out of the lot."
