Lee said that since both are humble guys in private, what was stopping them from becoming good friends?

After listening to the actor’s opinion, Tyson gave a very diplomatic answer.
“I don’t know. Sometimes I do want to click with him and then sometimes I say f**k we two different species of n***** that’s just the way it is well, “ Tyson detailed.
