The legendary Mike Tyson has revealed why he agreed to do a bout with Jake Paul.

"Can I be honest? I don't think he can hurt me. I'm addicted to fame. I like people to think about me all day long. I'd rather live a short life of fame than a long life of obscurity. That's just the way I am. I started out fighting for the whole damn status. I'm going to chase it for the rest of my life, I know it. I'm never going to get what I want because I can never get enough of it," Tyson's words were quoted by MMAWeekly.com, citing Esquire.

Recall, Tyson's fight with Paul was postponed to November 15.
