Boxing legend Mike Tyson heaps praise on 'amazing' Gauff: "Has a lot of time to cultivate her skill to become a lot better"

Coco Gauff was praised by boxing legend Mike Tyson in a recent episode of the 'Advantage Connors' podcast.

The tennis phenom was unable to secure a trophy this year and has a 36-18 record overall which is another amazing season for her. Last night she took on Iga Swiatek and did not have a good time as the Polish player smashed her.

Still, boxing legend Tyson is impressed with her:

"I think she's amazing. She has something that most don't have and that's time. She has a lot of time to cultivate her skill to become a lot better. And that's what she has that I find most of the players don't at this time"

After the loss against Swiatek, Gauff admitted that every loss is a lesson for her:

"I've lost to her so many times, and I just didn't have it today. Each time I play her, I learn a lot, like that I overplayed on certain shots which caused me to make more errors."

Next up for her will be Guadalajara but she's still in the doubles event with Pegula in San Diego.
