“Mike Tyson’s Shocking Confession: Did He Really Mistake Hasbulla for a Baby?”

In the world of unexpected celebrity antics, Mike Tyson’s recent revelation takes the cake—or maybe the ear? When discussing a playful moment on his Hotboxin' podcast, the former heavyweight champion sheepishly admitted he mistook Hasbulla, a 22-year-old social media sensation, for a baby. Seriously, can you imagine the confusion? Tyson, known for his infamous ear-biting incident in the ring, picked up Hasbulla like an oversize teddy bear and pretended to nibble on his ear, bringing a whole new meaning to “playful sparring!” As Tyson gears up for a big match against Jake Paul, it seems his past isn’t the only thing he’s still biting into. Curious how this bizarre tête-à-tête unfolded? Buckle up and dive into the hilariously strange encounter that left everyone buzzing! LEARN MORE.

Mike Tyson said he thought that Hasbulla was a baby when he picked him up and acted like he was biting his ear.

The famous boxer has got a bout with Jake Paul coming up soon enough, but last year he faced what might have been his most formidable opponent on the Hotboxin podcast.

Check it out:

As you can see from the footage, Tyson and Hasbulla had a bit of a play fight before the boxer picked the 22-year-old up and held him like a baby, then made it look like he was biting the guy’s ear.

It was a rather strange moment, but certainly not the worst thing that Tyson has ever done to someone’s ear.

Despite the bizarre encounter, Hasbulla said afterwards that he wanted to ‘do it again soon’ and the next time they met would be ‘even bigger’, so it would seem like there was no harm done.

Tyson later said that he mistook Hasbulla, who was 20 at the time he had his ear nibbled by the boxer, for a baby.

Hasbulla has a form of dwarfism caused by a growth hormone deficiency, so he’s 102 centimetres tall.

Of his condition he said: “I can’t say that I’m handicapped. I can speak, I understand. I have arms and legs just like others.”

While he seems to have enjoyed getting to meet Mike Tyson, the boxer recently appeared on The Art of Ward podcast and explained what he was thinking when he picked the guy up and started nibbling on his ear.

He said: “Yeah. I thought it was a baby. No, no. I did not know.

“That’s how I am with children, I’m hugging on this guy, and he’s like 26 years old. I knew nothing at all!”

Elsewhere on the podcast, he was asked about his upcoming bout in the boxing ring, which has been delayed from earlier this year after Tyson suffered a medical emergency on board a flight from Miami to Los Angeles.

Although the fight is a 58-year-old vs a 27-year-old, Tyson insisted he didn’t feel like his age when he was training, telling podcast host Andre Ward: “I don’t think I’m 58.

“Do you think I feel 58 when I’m fighting these young n*****s in the gym, and they’re bashing me them big strong motherf**kers, and I’m bashing them back. He’s supposed to be the young guy, I’m supposed to be the old man.

“He’s a younger man, he should be able to handle punches from an old withering man like me. Listen, you can’t compare me with other people my age because other people my age haven’t been training as long, consistently as me.”

Tyson said he was a ‘different species of human being’ and promised that his fight would be a ‘wonderful evening’.
