Mike Tyson Stuns Onlookers During Jake Paul Prep: "I Still Got It"

Mike Tyson's fight with Jake Paul is coming up soon. The 58-year-old boxing legend will face the 27-year-old YouTuber-turned-boxer on November 15 at AT&T; Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Netflix will stream the event, marking its first live boxing broadcast.

The match has sparked debate in the boxing world. Critics worry about Tyson's age and long absence from professional boxing. Tyson last fought professionally in 2005, retiring against Kevin McBride. His previous bout ended in a stoppage loss to Danny Williams inside four rounds.

But Tyson wants to prove he's still got it. He recently posted a video on social media showing he's still dangerous in the ring. The clip shows Tyson dropping his sparring partner with a powerful left hook.

After the knockdown, Tyson warned:

"Don't f*ck with me. I got a lot in me. I'm just getting started."

He added the message "I'm just getting started. #PaulTyson" to the post.

Tyson, known as "Iron Mike" and "The Baddest Man On The Planet," made history as the youngest world heavyweight champion. He won his first 19 pro fights by knockout, with 12 of those in the first round.

Jake Paul, on the other hand, has a 10-1 pro record. He's beaten former UFC stars who switched to boxing, including Anderson Silva and Nate Diaz.

The fight was originally set for July 2024 but got pushed back. Tyson had to delay after an ulcer flare-up caused a medical incident on a plane.

Three former world heavyweight champions have already said they'd be willing to fight Tyson next. It seems the boxing world is curious to see if the legend still has what it takes to compete at the highest level.
