Mike Tyson gives concerning health update ahead of Jake Paul fight YouTube: Fox40 NewsMike Tyson has given a concerning health update on himself ahead of his fight with Jake Paul, saying it is \u201chard to walk\u201d at the minute. When Jake Paul and Mike Tyson announced that they\u2019d be fighting, plenty of critics quickly pointed to the massive age between them both as the biggest sticking point with the fight. That\u2019s before you mention Tyson\u2019s experience and Jake moving up in weight once again. Since it was first announced, \u2018Iron\u2019 Mike has gone through a few health issues. Most notably, the 58-year-old pulled out of the original fight date of July 20 after he suffered an ulcer flare-up during a cross-country flight across the US. Fast forward a few months, and Tyson has repeatedly said he\u2019ll be healthy enough to meet Jake on November 15. However, his body is feeling the pain a bit already. The boxing legend was a part of the commentary team for the Cage Wars event in Schenectady, New York on September 13 and gave a bit of an insight into his pre-fight work. \u201cIt\u2019s hard to walk right now. But two months from now I\u2019m going to be perfect,\u201d Tyson said, admitting that things are \u201ca little shaky\u2019\u2019 too. The former heavyweight king also told the commentary team that he has sparred six rounds and \u201cthe fight is won in the gym.\u201d So, he\u2019ll be ramping things up in the coming weeks. As it stands, the November 15 fight will take place over eight rounds, each being two minutes in length. Jake had suggested upping that to ten rounds at three minutes, but that hasn\u2019t changed yet. It has been reported that Tyson will undergo more rigorous testing than normal. This is because Netflix and other organizers have concerns about his health. That won\u2019t be done until November 14, so, that could spell disaster for the fight less than a day out. However, Jake hasn\u2019t drafted a backup fighter in yet. So, he is confident it will go ahead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
