On a recent episode of their sports talk show, It Is What It Is, rappers turned sportscasters Camron, and Ma$e explain how they were offered the opportunity to walk Mike Tyson out in his upcoming fight against Jake Paul and why they turned it down.
âThey offered us the walkout with Mike Tyson,â the Dipset head honcho said. âThis was before this incident and Iâm like, âIâm not sure if I want to do that.â Now, Iâm probably not going to do it.” Cam continued, ââCause I donât want n-ggas blaming me for nothing when n-ggas donât win. Like when Devin [Haney] lost [to Ryan Garcia], n-ggas said, âWhy he wearing Balenciaga sneakers?â [âŠ] If we walk Mike out and Mike donât win, I donât know if I need that type of pressure.â
The former Bad Boy rapper chimed in, suggesting that Tyson’s ulcer problem was a cope out for the upcoming fight, explaining, âI hope Mike is well [âŠ] but it sounds like Mike is trying to get a way out,â he said. âI know he shouldnât need one but if they took him off this plane, we want to make sure heâs well. But are we having a fight or not? Is the fight still on? Before this, I had Mike winning the fight. Now, I donât know.â
