Lennox Lewis, who beat Tyson in a huge heavyweight clash back in 2002, has shared his thoughts on the upcoming fight. Lewis knows what he's talking about - he stopped Tyson in the eighth round of their bout, which was one of the biggest heavyweight fights ever.
Speaking to FightHype.com, Lewis said Tyson's still got what it takes:
"Mike still has it. He can throw a punch, he can take a punch, he throws good combinations. I've seen him throw six-punch combinations."
Lewis thinks it's going to be a good fight. He pointed out that Tyson's style is straightforward - he'll come at you and try to knock you out. His advice for Paul? Stay away from Tyson's power punches.
In another interview with Fight Hub TV, Lewis didn't hold back his prediction:
"Mike Tyson's gonna win. His experience and power will beat youth. Tyson's not that old, and Paul's not a real fighter. Tyson's forgotten more than Paul's learning."
Lewis did say that age could be a factor if the fight goes on too long. But he also warned that if Tyson lands a ten-second combination on Paul, the YouTuber-turned-boxer will definitely go down.
It's worth noting that Tyson's over 30 years older than Paul. But Lewis, who's only a year apart from Tyson in age, seems confident in his old rival's chances. We'll have to wait until November to see if he's right.
