Boxing legend Mike Tyson on GOAT debate: "Rafael Nadal doesn't look great playing while Roger Federer is smooth and very elegant"

Mike Tyson participated in the podcast of Jimmy Connors and the boxing legend shared his views on the big three.

A tennis fan who enjoys tennis, Tyson is very familiar with the big three and what they did in the sport and for the sport. As any fan, Tyson has his favourites among the big three and they are Djokovic and Federer. He shared his reasons for that during a talk with the Advantage Connors podcast:

"Djokovic, definitely, and Federer. Talking about Djokovic, he came back from all those injuries. You know, I love Djokovic personally but I'm just a big fan of Federer."

He continued:

"When he was in his prime, he was always moving in the air. He's smooth. He's really smooth. Nadal was just all over the place. He's a great player, but he doesn't look great playing. Federer is smooth and very elegant."

When asked about the current state of affairs in tennis, Tyson singled out Djokovic:

“Novak Djokovic is my favorite at the moment. If he is okay, I really like to watch him. He is my favorite because the way he has come back from injury and beaten guys like Nadal and Federer is amazing. He's a true fighter."
