Mike Tyson and Jake Paul Face Off at New York Press Conference ahead of July 20 Fight

Legendary heavyweight boxer Mike Tyson and YouTube sensation turned boxer Jake Paul faced off during a fiery press conference in New York to promote their upcoming fight on July 20. Despite criticism about his age, Tyson, 57, expressed no reservations about his comeback, stating that it was a “no-brainer” for him to step back into the ring.

Tyson, who last fought professionally in 2005, admitted that training for his return had taken a toll on his body, but he was excited to shake up the sports world once again. The former champ will go head-to-head with the 27-year-old Paul at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, in a bout sanctioned by boxing authorities.

Despite concerns from some in the boxing community about Tyson’s safety, the former champ brushed off doubters, insisting that he was “beautiful” and ready to prove himself in the ring. Paul, on the other hand, expressed confidence in his abilities, stating that he was ready to outbox Tyson and show the world that age doesn’t matter in the sport.

While Tyson admitted his fondness for Paul, he made it clear that once they step into the ring, it will be all business. The former heavyweight king even hinted at the possibility of more fights in the future, but first, he is focused on taking care of business against Paul.

As the anticipation builds for their showdown on July 20, fans can expect fireworks both inside and outside the ring as Tyson and Paul look to settle the score in what promises to be an electrifying matchup.
