Mike Tyson fit to fight

According to representatives, boxing icon Mike Tyson is “doing great” following a health problem that occurred on a trip to Los Angeles this past weekend.

Shortly before his Sunday trip from Miami to Los Angeles touched down, Tyson had an ucler-related problem. An eyewitness told inTouch that the medical problem caused a request for a doctor to be made on board, and that when the jet landed in California, paramedics greeted it.

The eyewitness claimed, “Mike had some sort of medical emergency on the plane and paramedics boarded.” “The flight issued an announcement asking for a doctor—the message even appeared on everyone’s screens—before the paramedics arrived.”

The eyewitness said, “He was in first class, but we were an exit row. They requested us to remain in the aircraft, and they landed it so the paramedics could go inside. The hostess said that he’s a really important passenger so they wanted to make sure he was okay. She nodded affirmatively when I mouthed the words “Mike Tyson,” even though I knew it was him.”

The former heavyweight world champion’s representatives claimed that he had a medical problem. According to a spokesman, “he is grateful to the medical staff that were there to help him” and is currently “doing great,” the New York Post was informed.

On July 20, Tyson, 57, will take against 27-year-old YouTube personality turned boxer Jake Paul in Texas in what will be the first-ever boxing contest broadcast in real time on Netflix. In a press conference earlier this month, the fighters boasted that they would defeat each other before the bout.

Though Paul had only started boxing professionally four years prior, Tyson stated of him, “I was doing this years ago, so this is nothing new to me.” “This little boy over here is new to this.”

But Tyson admitted that preparing for his first official bout since quitting in 2005 is taking a toll on his physique. Tyson told reporters, “I’m doing great, but my body is s*** right now.” “I hurt, really, really hurt.”

Paul declared that although he respects Tyson, he will win the fight at AT&T Stadium, which holds 80,000 spectators and is home to the Dallas Cowboys of the NFL. “Age is irrelevant. He is a warrior and a killer. Since he has always done this, it comes naturally to him. Paul remarked, “I’ve just been doing this for four years, and I’m at an extremely high level.

“I’m going to prove to everyone that I can outbox Mike Tyson, that I’m going to be the one doing the killing,” he said, “on July 20th.”
