"I was talking to Tyson about him. Tyson said that he's the best one out there. That's what Tyson's opinion was. Can he go all the way? Yes he can. He's got a good ticker, a big heart.
"He's strong, he walks forwards, he is the 'Juggernaut'. Whoever he's in there with, you know they will have a problem getting rid of him. He's a tough guy. He can fight a bit. He can punch."
