Despite his age, Tyson proves that he is still a formidable fighter. In a viral video, he pressures his training partner against the ropes before unleashing his signature left hook. The opponent quickly collapses to the canvas, unable to withstand the might of the “Baddest Man on the Planet.” Tyson confidently declared, “I still have plenty of power left in me. I’m just getting started.” His statement left fans in awe, with one spectator commenting, “He looks terrifying, guys.” Another added, “When Mike says ‘I’m just getting started,’ you better run!“
Preparing for a Controversial Match Against Jake Paul
Tyson is set to face Jake Paul on November 15, a matchup that has sparked controversy due to the staggering 30-year age gap between the two fighters. At 27, Paul boasts a professional boxing record of 10 wins and 1 loss, while Tyson returns to the professional ring for the first time since 2005. Although Tyson had an exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr. in 2020, this time he will be up against a much younger opponent.
Both Tyson and Paul have shared training videos, with Paul showcasing his abilities by knocking down an opponent with a right hand. After the initial fight scheduled for July 20 was postponed due to Tyson’s health issues (specifically, gastric ulcers), concerns arose regarding Tyson’s physical condition. However, doctors have confirmed that the “Iron” Mike is medically cleared to continue training and compete.
