Rick Ross devises a bizarre plan to hold Mike Tyson's trilogy fight with Evander Holyfield in a 109-room mansion that the boxing legend sold him

Rick Ross has planned a bizarre “Thrilla in Manilla 3” fight between Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield.

Tyson and Holyfield fought each other twice during their heavyweight careers, with the latter winning his first fight in 1996 before “Iron Mike” was disqualified a year later for biting off part of his rival's ear.

Since their reconciliation and friendship, the pair have been heavily linked with a trilogy fight as an exhibition match and even started a business venture together.

Award-winning rapper and songwriter Ross has decided he is the right man to finally organize the event and plans to do so on the lawn in front of his mega-mansion.

“Thrilla in Manila III,” he shouted during an impassioned video on social media.

“As soon as Tyson knocks out Jake Paul, I'm going to bring Tyson and Holyfield to my front yard for a fight.

“I'm going to put a ring right there. I want the judges to be Snoop Dogg, Kevin Hart [and] DJ Academics.

“The ring will be right there in Promise Land. Thrilla in Manila, the greatest.”

Ross pointed to the lawn of his mega-mansion, which was ironically sold to him by Holyfield in the legend's hometown of Atalanta.

In 2008, “The Real Deal” was forced to sell the mansion due to financial difficulties, which Ross acquired for $5.8 million.

The luxurious property has 109 rooms, and Ross regularly struts through them in social media videos. The house is a tribute to Holyfield's multimillion-dollar success.

Of course, a showdown between the two seems almost impossible, as Holyfield's comeback against Vitor Belfort in 2021 was a disaster.

He was knocked out by his overpowering rival in one round, which left him with a very disturbing defeat.

His rival Tyson also returned since his retirement in 2005 and fought in an exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr.

The veteran fared much better and, amazingly, will now face Jake Paul in a fully sanctioned fight on November 15th.

Despite health concerns, the former undisputed champion believes he is still fit to compete at age 58.

“Bet your life on it [that fight will take place],” Tyson told FOX40 News. “I'm just looking forward to it.

“That's something that I would say drives me. It just gives me a life for myself. It's life within myself. I just do what I want to do.

“Forget about everyone else. Forget about whether they want me to lose, to win, or to do what I want to do.

“Forget what my wife and children are doing. Just think about this one moment. Just stay with me and don't feel sorry for me. Don't worry about me. That's all.”

I will always test myself. I will always push myself to the limit. I am always very nervous and anxious until the fight gets closer.

“Then I understand that this is reality. I have been through this many times and I know how to deal with this situation.”
