Jake Paul Fires Back At Critics Worried Mike Tyson Is “Too Old” For Their Fight

Jake Paul has responded to haters who think Mike Tyson is “too old” for his fight with the YouTuber-turned-boxer. Speaking with Babcock on the TMZ Sports TV show earlier this week, he argued that the legendary boxer is an adult and can make his own decisions. The interview comes after Tyson, who will turn 58 years old later this month, postponed the fight until November due to medical issues.

“Tell Mike Tyson that. Because he does not give a s*** what anyone thinks,” Paul said. “He’s his own boss. He wants to fight me. He told my team, ‘I don’t give a s*** about this. Like, tell Jake I’m still going to rip his head off and knock him the f*** out. And, this just bought him more time.’ Tell Mike Tyson not to fight and to chill and see how that goes.”

🥊 Jake Paul Vs. Mike Tyson Fight Has A New Date

Jake Paul and Mike Tyson were originally supposed to fight on July 20th in Texas. However, the fight was postponed after Tyson suffered a medical emergency. While it was believed that the two would be able to continue as is, it became clear that for Tyson’s safety, the date needed to be moved. Overall, some fans had criticized Paul, saying this was a bad idea. That he had no business getting in the ring with someone double his age, who is clearly of poor health.

Well, it seems as though Paul is not listening to any of that. Additionally, neither is Tyson. Earlier today, it was revealed that the fight will go on as planned, except it will now take place on November 15th. AT&T Stadium will still house the fight, and it will still be available live on Netflix. That said, this will not soften the debate around whether or not this fight should even be happening at all. By November, there is no telling what Mike Tyson’s health may look like.

Dana White Believes Tyson Vs Paul Should Be Called Off, Calls Match “Ridiculous”

The rescheduled battle, Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul, is still scheduled to debut on Netflix on June 7, 2024, despite the delay. Numerous people have expressed their opinions over the impending bout. Dana White of the UFC has weighed in during an appearance on Andrew Schulz’s Flagrant podcast. When Schulz confronted Dana about the fight during the program, the UFC President immediately referred to it as “ridiculous.” He is one of many figures to through out concern over the fight due to the age disparity.

“When this fight happens Tyson will be 58 f**kin years old. Under any circumstances an almost 60-year-old man shouldn’t be fighting a 27-year-old guy under any circumstances… it’s just f**kin ridiculous,” he said. White continued by saying that he is opposed to the fight because he is concerned about Tyson’s health at almost sixty years of age. “Jake Paul’s 27, he’s in his f**kin prime… and I love Mike. No one wants to see Mike get beat by this f**kin j**koff,” Dana White said.

Dana White Thinks Mike Tyson And Jake Paul Fighting Is Ridiculous

Dana White has commented on the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight previously as well. White clarified in March that the age difference was the reason the fight wasn’t “serious.” There are certain benefits to facing a famous fighter like Mike Tyson, though. White said, “He doesn’t [want to be taken seriously]. What Jake wants is Jake wants to make money. The people that follow Jake Paul don’t buy Jake Paul’s fights so Jake Paul has to fight people who can actually sell pay-per-views.”

Many others tried to claim Tyson’s slot when the Paul vs. Tyson bout was rescheduled because of the famed boxer’s health problems. This includes Roy Jones Jr., a past opponent of Tyson. He stated he will make sure to be ready for a battle if the chance to do so arises. Tyson could be in serious danger simply because of his age. Whatever you think about these YouTube/content creator boxing matches, they still are combat. Overall, Dana White might be on to something. We hope, if the fight goes through, that nothing happens to Iron Mike, whose health has been up in the air.

Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul Bout Officially Postponed Iron Mike’s Medical Scare

Mike Tyson is 'Feeling 100%' After Medical Scare And Trash Talks Jake Paul

Whelp, that changed pretty quickly. The highly anticipated boxing bout between Jake Paul and iconic heavyweight former champion Mike Tyson has been postponed due to Tyson’s recent medical scare, or as some called it, an emergency. Get this: Most Valuable Promotions, Paul’s boxing promotion company, made the official announcement. Paul expressed his disappointment in a video posted to X, saying he was “heartbroken” but still willing to fight Tyson once he recovered.

The New York Post’s Ryan Glasspiegel and Matt Ehalt reported that Tyson, 57, experienced an ulcer flare-up that caused nausea and dizziness just before landing from a Miami to Los Angeles flight on May 26. Tyson’s representatives have since stated that the former heavyweight champion is “doing great.” Tyson himself confirmed he is “feeling 100 percent.” The super hyped-up fight, which was set for July 20 at AT&T Stadium, will have a new date announced on June 7. Check out both fighters’ statements following the postponement.

Tyson said, “I want to thank my fans around the world for their support and understanding during this time. Unfortunately, due to my ulcer flareup, I have been advised by my doctor to lighten my training for a few weeks to rest and recover. My body is in better overall shape than it has been since the 1990s and I will be back to my full training schedule soon. Jake Paul, this may have bought you some time, but in the end you will still be knocked out and out of boxing for good. I appreciate everyone’s patience and can’t wait to deliver an unforgettable performance later this year.”

Paul went on to add, “I fully support postponing the event so Mike Tyson has no excuses come fight night. My fans know I don’t want to face Iron Mike at anything but his best, but let there be no mistake – when he steps into the ring with me, I will be ready to claim my W with a sensational finish. Paul vs Tyson will be one for the ages, and I promise to bring my best for this once-in-a-lifetime matchup.”

ICYMI, Jake Paul is a 27-year-old social media star turned boxer and holds a 9-1 professional record, including six knockouts, with victories over former MMA stars like Ben Askren, Tyron Woodley (twice), Anderson Silva, and Nate Diaz. His only defeat was a split decision to Tommy Fury. We shouldn’t have to recap who Mike Tyson is, but he once was the undisputed world heavyweight champion, began his career with a 37-0 record, and ended it at 50-6 (two no-contests).

Logan Paul Offers To Fight Brother Jake After Mike Tyson Delay

Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson has been one of the most anticipated boxing matches of 2024. Fans have been chomping at the bit to see the social media personality throw down against one of the greatest boxers to ever lace up the gloves. Unfortunately, the chomping is going to continue. Tyson’s reps issued an official statement on May 31 claiming that the boxer fell ill during a flight to Los Angeles. The event is delayed as a result, with a new date slated to be announced the first week of June. Unless, of course, Logan Paul gets his wish.

Logan Paul has joined his brother in pivoting to boxing, and seized the opportunity to throw his hat in the ring after the delay. “So Mike Tyson’s out,” he wrote on X (formerly Twitter). “I’ll step in and we can settle this once and for all.” To further ham up the notion of a showdown between brothers, Logan Paul posted a pic of him and Jake dogging each other. It was a way to make light of the recent news. Despite Logan’s offer, Jake is taking the delay hard. He voiced his disappointment during an Instagram Live. “Obviously, devastating news,” he told his viewers. “I’m heartbroken, speechless. We’ve been working so hard over here. Everyone in this camp.”

Jake Paul went on express “I feel bad for everyone involved in this event. The whole undercard. This is an opportunity that’s been ripped from all of us.” Despite the logistical nightmare that the delay has caused, the internet personality maintained that Tyson’s health was most important. He also made it clear that he plans to fight Tyson whenever he gets the chance. “I do value Mike’s health first and foremost,” he said. “Love that guy, have so much respect for him. I want Mike to be healthy… He says he’s still gonna knock me out and I bought myself some time.” He then addressed Mike Tyson specifically, claiming he’s ready whenever the boxer is.

It sounds like Logan Paul is not going to get the replacement gig. It’s an ironic turn of events, since Logan claimed that he was initially offered the chance to fight Tyson. He discussed it on his podcast, and stated that he turned down the fight because he felt Tyson was too old. This led to a dispute between the two Paul brothers. Jake went on an Adin Ross Twitch stream and contradicted Logan’s claim. “I don’t know why he would say that,” he noted. “Like me and most valuable promotions and my partner Nikisa struck a deal with Netflix. Mike Tyson wasn’t offering people deals, so I don’t know what he’s talking about.”

Mike Tyson is 'Feeling 100%' After Medical Scare And Trash Talks Jake Paul

Thankfully, heavyweight boxing legend Mike Tyson gave a positive health update Tuesday after a medical emergency on Sunday. Tyson announced on X that he feels “100 percent,” while also taking a jab at Jake Paul, pun intended, of course.

Katherine Schaffstall of In Touch Weekly reported that Tyson experienced a “medical emergency” on a flight from Miami to Los Angeles.

ICYMI, paramedics treated Tyson upon landing, and his representatives later explained that he had an “ulcer flare-up” causing him to feel “nauseous and dizzy.” They added that Tyson was “appreciative to the medical staff there to help him.”

Now, Tyson, 57, is widely considered one of the greatest heavyweight boxers, although he has not competed in an official match since 2005. His recent notable activity includes an exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr. in 2020, which ended in an eight-round split draw.

The larger-than-life “sanctioned” bout on July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, will pit Tyson against Jake Paul, who is 30 years younger and far less experienced.

Paul, originally a YouTuber and actor, debuted in pro boxing in 2020 and has a 9-1 record with six knockouts.

Unless you have been under a rock, Paul’s slew of wins include bouts against former UFC stars, though he suffered his only loss to Tommy Fury. Despite Tyson’s age and long hiatus from official matches, he is expected to be Paul’s toughest challenge. The fight will be streamed live on Netflix.
