Mike Tyson: "It's Hard for Me to Walk Right Now"

YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul (10-1, 7 KOs) and former undisputed world champion Mike Tyson (50-6, 44 KOs) had a face-off during the NFL game between the `Dallas Cowboys` and the `New Orleans Saints`.

Ahead of the event, `Iron` Mike shared some surprising updates, revealing that he's currently under significant physical strain. According to Tyson, he recently completed six sparring sessions, and the number of rounds was increased to 10, despite the fight with Jake being scheduled for 8 rounds of 2 minutes each.

It’s hard to walk right now. But in two months, I’ll be in perfect shape. I’m going to enjoy spending the evening with all my childhood friends and the damn Jake Paul.

Fights are won in the gym. I’ll do whatever it takes to help me win,” Tyson said.

As a reminder, the fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson is scheduled for November 15 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, USA. Originally set for July 20, the bout was postponed due to a flare-up of Tyson’s ulcer.

The showdown has been officially sanctioned as a professional heavyweight bout (over 90.7 kg), and the result will be added to the fighters’ records. The event will be broadcast by Netflix's streaming service.
