Boxing legend Mike Tyson has admitted that he is a big admirer of Vasyl Lomachenko and Ryan Garcia as he named his favourite boxers to watch right now.

Speaking on The Joe Rogan Experience, the 54-year-old insisted that it is "nice to watch" Ukrainian star Lomachenko in a fight.

Tyson also told UFC legend Joe Rogan that he rates the likes of Devin Haney, Shakur Stevenson, Gervonta Davis, Errol Spence Jr and Terence Crawford.

However, the former undisputed world heavyweight champ added that he thinks Garcia is "hot s**t."

Tyson said: "Lomachenko is nice to watch. Haney's good, Shakur's good, the other little guy [Davis] from Baltimore is good. Spence is really good, Crawford.

"There's a bunch of good fighters out there. That little guy Ryan Garcia, he's hot s***!"

Garcia, 22, is the current WBC silver lightweight champion and holds an unblemished professional record of 20 wins and no losses, with 17 victories coming by way of knockout.

Meanwhile, three-weight world champ Lomachenko holds a record of 14 wins in 15 fights.

Tyson has previously spoken high praises of Lomachenko and reiterated that the 32-year-old Ukrainian is one of his favourite active fighters.

The 'Baddest Man on the Planet' said later on his podcast that he loved how the "master" Lomachenko is a "f*****g animal."

Tyson explained on Hotboxin' With Mike Tyson: "I respect Tyson Fury, I respect Deontay Wilder, I respect all of those guys.

"Andy Ruiz [Jr] also, this guy named [Vasyl] Lomachenko -- he's a f*****g animal, man. He's a master, it's like he's dancing.

"There's also Gervonta Davis, there's quite a few guys that are good fighters."
