Rick Ross recently made a surprising announcement that has the boxing world buzzing – a match between Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield in his very own front yard. This unexpected news has fans eagerly anticipating what could be an epic showdown between two legendary fighters.
Rozay’s Bold Claim: Tyson and Holyfield Set to Fight
On a recent Instagram Story post on Aug. 31, Rick Ross revealed his plans to organize a boxing match between former heavyweight champions Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield. The location? Ross’s sprawling Georgia mansion, known as “The Promise Land,” in Fayetteville, Ga.
In a video clip, Ross dubbed the potential Tyson-Holyfield bout as “Thrilla in Manila III,” hinting at the excitement and anticipation surrounding the event.
“Once Tyson knocks out Jake Paul, I’ma get Tyson and Holyfield to fight in my front yard,” Ross declared, pointing to the green pasture. “I’m going to put a ring right there.”
He even went as far as to name his desired judges for the match – Snoop Dogg, Kevin Hart, and DJ Akademiks. The stage is set at the Promise Land for what Ross believes will be a monumental event.
For those unfamiliar, the highly-anticipated fight between Mike Tyson and YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul is scheduled for Nov. 15 at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Titled “The Baddest Man on the Planet,” the exhibition match will be streamed on Netflix.
If Ross’s plans come to fruition, the Tyson-Holyfield showdown could potentially take place next year, promising an unforgettable spectacle for boxing fans.
Adding fuel to the fire, Rick Ross posted an image of Evander Holyfield with the caption, “Cut the grass, so the snakes will show,” directly aimed at his rap rival 50 Cent.
Rick Ross Fires Back at 50 Cent’s Claims
Prior to the announcement of the Tyson-Holyfield fight at his Georgia mansion, Rick Ross found himself embroiled in a war of words with 50 Cent, who questioned the authenticity of Ross’s lavish lifestyle.
In an upcoming episode of the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast, 50 Cent insinuated that Ross’s wealth was merely a facade and not a true reflection of his financial status.
He went on to suggest that Ross may not have the means to sustain his luxurious Georgia property, casting doubt on the rapper’s extravagant lifestyle.
Ross wasted no time in responding to 50 Cent’s remarks, calling into question 50’s loyalty to Dr. Dre during the Drake and Kendrick Lamar rap feud.
“I thought Dr. Dre put you on? I thought Dr. Dre was the set? I thought you were loyal to Dr. Dre?” Ross challenged 50 Cent, highlighting the inconsistencies in his rival’s behavior.
