Legendary former world heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson issued a statement following the postponement of his fight against blogger Jake Paul, which was scheduled for July 20 in Arlington, Texas.
"I want to thank my fans around the world for their support and understanding during this time. Unfortunately, due to my ulcer above all else, my doctor has advised me to ease up on my training for a few weeks to rest and recover. Overall my body is in better shape than at any time since the 90's and I will be back to my full workout schedule soon.
Jake Paul, it may have given you some time, but in the end you will still get knocked out and retire from boxing for good. I appreciate everyone's patience and I can't wait for an unforgettable performance later this year," Tyson was quoted as saying by Most Valuable Promotions.
