Mike Tyson keeps training ferociously ahead of his fight with Jake Paul
‘Iron Mike’ will take on the social media personality and boxer on July 20 at AT&T Stadium, in Texas.
At 57, Mike Tyson (50-6-0, 44 KO) continues to demonstrate great ferocity and tenacity in his preparation training, the same one he showed in his prime, ahead of the fight against Jake Paul ( 9-1-0, 6 KO) on July 20.
The fight will be held at AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys, in Arlington, Texas, and is scheduled to be streamed on Netflix.
Iron Mike shared some videos of his training routines, proving he’s training at a high level. “Back at work”, he said on one of his posts. His fans reacted ironically. “Jake, you can still say no. It’s ok”.
The undisputed heavyweight world champion from 1987 to 1990, said a few words to his opponent some days ago: “This guy is gonna come, he’s gonna try to hurt me, which I’m accustomed to, and he’s gonna be greatly mistaken.”
Tyson added that the showdown between him and Paul will be a real and very demanding clash. “This is called an ‘exhibition’, but if you look up ‘exhibition’, you won’t see any of the laws we’re fighting under. It will be a real fight”.
Tyson’s last fight took place in 2020 against Roy Jones Jr., an exhibition showdown that ended up being a draw. Paul, meanwhile, last defeated Ryan Bourland via technical knockout in the first round in March.
