Mike Tyson shares footage of first day of training ahead of Jake Paul fight: ‘The fun has just begun’
Mike Tyson has shared footage from his first day of training as he gears up to take on Jake Paul in a controversial blockbuster boxing showdown this summer.
Last week, it was announced that the 57-year-old, long-retired heavyweight legend would be stepping back into the ring to take on YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul, who is 30 years his junior.
The fight will take place at the AT&T Stadium in Texas on July 20 and will be broadcast globally on Netflix, though as yet there has been no confirmation regarding the rules of the bout.
Tyson has not fought professionally since 2005, though he did have a high-profile exhibition fight against fellow ring legend Roy Jones Jr in 2020, with the two sharing eight two-minute rounds with no knockouts allowed.
