Will Smith was a guest on Thursday night's episode of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" and spoke briefly about his friendship with Michael Jordan, who, along with Tiger Woods, he considers the most competitive person on the planet.

According to Smith, Jordan will turn even the most mundane of activities into a competition.

"I love being around people with that kind of competitive energy, but like, Mike will compete with anything, though," Smith said. "If we're drinking water, Mike be: 'I’ll race you!'"

Smith and his company Overbook Entertainment are set to produce a film about Jordan's baseball stint, titled "The Prospect." The project doesn't have a release date as of yet.
