Internet sensation Hasbulla Magomedov, who has signed a five-year contract with UFC last year, always made his presence felt in the MMA world with his connections to fellow Russians Khabib Nurmagomedov and Islam Makhachev, and his confrontations with Conor McGregor. Recently, the 20-year-old has entered the boxing world by throwing hands on former world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson.
Hasbulla is currently on his America trip, where he is hanging out with the Nelk Boys in LA, and met Mike Tyson on Tuesday at the Hotboxin podcast studios.
During a recent recording of Iron Mike's podcast, Hotboxin, Hasbulla walk towards Tyson and swung his hands on the legendary boxer, who covered his face to block any ferocious hit by the Russian. While Hasbulla continued throwing punches, the Baddest Man on the Planet picked him up and appeared to bite the Mini Khabib.

While Mike Tyson picked Hasbulla in his hands effortlessly and appeared to bite him, fans felt nostalgic as it looked like what Tyson did during his 1997 WBA world title rematch with Evander Holyfield. However, Tyson didn't actually bite Hasbulla and just tried to nibble as it was a friendly fight.
