Former heavy weight champion of the World Mike Tyson said he was fit and fully ready for his November 15 fight against Jake Paul as the two boxers had a joint news conference in New York City on Sunday.
The match was originally scheduled for July 20 but was postponed after the 58 year old Tyson, had an ulcer flare-up that forced him to rest.
“Iron mike”, who has a 50 and 6 record with 44 knockouts, was one of the most feared heavyweights in history but has not fought a professional fight since 2005.
When asked about his opponent Tyson said ” As soon as I catch this guy it’s going to be totally over, he is going to run. he is gonna run like a thief “.
The fight to be streamed live globally on Netflix, will take place at the 80,000-seat AT&R stadium in Arlington, Texas, home of the Dallas Cowboys.
