At one point he had to be held back by security again – having been pushed away after trying to interrupt Tyson Fury’s face-off with Ngannou.
After initially praising the two fighters for their achievements, he said: “You know what, give me a special mention.
“The man who bred him, John Fury, fears no man on Earth. No matter what they’ve done, no matter what the accolades.
“Here I am! Any man alive want to fight John Fury I’m here and ready to go, Mike Tyson what have you got to say to that my brother?”
Iron Mike laughed off the suggestion but John would not back down, and instead became more animated as Tyson teased his man Ngannou would be the new heavyweight champion of the world.
