With just over a month left before their controversial boxing match, legendary knockout artist Mike Tyson and world-renowned social media influencer Jake Paul are ramping things up in training.
The boxing “superfight” was originally expected to take place back in July, but Tyson experienced a medical setback due to a bad ulcer and the bout was re-booked for Nov. 15 from inside AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Tyson’s medical condition only proved the naysayers right as most believe the boxing match is a sick cash grab for Paul. That’s because Tyson just turned 58 this past June and hasn’t fought professionally since a loss to Kevin McBride back in 2005.
Regardless of all the outside noise, Tyson vs. Paul is still expected to go down next month in a special Netflix extravaganza. One that could very well bring in “hundreds of millions” of viewers. Most will tune in to see if “Iron Mike” still has something left in the tank to become the first fighter to stop Paul inside the ring. Paul, on the other hand, will look to pad his resume even more and capture a victory over an opponent who has no business competing in the first place.
Tyson, who has been dropping terrifying training videos since he originally signed on to fight Paul, took to social media on Friday to showcase another pre-fight regimen. As always, Tyson looks downright deadly with his punches. Fans can only hope a few of them land against “Problem Child” next month. Check it out below:
Paul, who is coming off a knockout victory over former UFC contender and current bareknuckle boxer Mike Perry this past July (watch HERE), seems to have little fear when it comes to stepping into the ring with Tyson. The social media superstar released his own training video on Saturday showing off his growing heavyweight skills. Check that out below:
