The representative of Mike Tyson appeared to overthrow Jake Paul’s theorem that the 58-year-old boxing legend was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. The expected return of Tyson to the ring in November made him face the personality of social media, which became a boxer.

Although many believed that the former world champion could undo the clock, his age became observable on the night of the fight. Tyson’s performance began to fall after the second round and he failed to land on significant blows for the rest of the fight.

Despite the fact that he did not protect the knockout, Paul brought the unanimous victory of the decision in Texas. In a recent conversation with Adin Ross, Paul shocked the world of boxing, claiming that Tyson was diagnosed with Parkinson, but was “cured” by smoking.

“Ayahuasca is also really good for your brain. And the same with the toad! The toad hardened Parkinson Tyson so that he could come back and fight. ” Asked to explain how it works, Paul replied: “You smoke it.”

His comments quickly became viral online, which prompted Paul to clarify the situation in social media. In a post on X (previously Twitter), a 28-year-old social media sensation wrote: “Bruh … Mike Tyson did not have parkinsons..wtf. Why the fuck is so stupid I broke up.

In response to Paweł’s comments, the representatives of Tyson rejected the claim that the former heavyweight world champion suffers from Parkinson’s disease.

“Mike is content and completely hearty. There is no Parkinson or any other disease, “spokesman for 58-year-old TMZ has informed. Although there is currently no cure for Parkinson’s disease, various treatment methods are available to relieve symptoms, including supporting therapies such as physiotherapy, drugs and surgery.

Last month, Tyson expressed concern about his recovery after the fight with Paul, saying Up-to-date York Post: “I feel quite good. I don’t know if I’m 100 percent recovered, but I feel good. “

In December, a boxing veteran confessed that he didn’t remember much of the fight: “I don’t remember the fight so much, I got a little thrown away. I didn’t watch the fight. You know what I remember. Returning from the first round, and Jake made a bow … This is the last thing I remember.

He continued: “I wasn’t tired, I wasn’t sweaty. I went to the house where we lived, I left the house with my wife and children, went to the party and then came back. “

Boxing enthusiasts were surprised when Tyson decided not to withdraw from his fight with Paul for the second time. The match, originally planned for July, was postponed because “Iron Mike” had to be sideways expected after the ulcer expanded during the flight.

In a heartfelt story with Fox Nation, Tyson made a real reason why he could not withdraw from the fight. “I didn’t think about it [if it weakened him]. I was worried that they would be sued, you know because I was like God, I would sue me if I don’t fight – confessed Tyson.

“I had a bloody ulcer, like three inches. I bleed and bleed. And I had to have every 10 blood transfusions. Every time I do it, I was the same as I do Roy Jones, what I do it. My wife sees I scream because my body feels so much.

On Wednesday, Lewis Crocker heads to Australia to defend his IBF welterweight world title against Liam Paro for the first time.

Crocker will face Paro at the Pat Rafter Arena in Queensland, live on DAZN in the UK and Kayo Sports in Australia.

Man from Belfast recorded his second victory over Donovan after the first victory in March last year, and his rival was disqualified for hitting him after the bell.

Paro (27-1, 16 KO) is trying to become a world champion in two weight categories, having previously reigned in the super-lightweight division.

The Australian has since won twice, overtaking David Papot in his last appearance in September.

McKean meets Taliva

Heavyweight Demsey McKean will look to continue his rebuild when he faces Liam Talivaa for the vacant IBF Pan Pacific title.

McKean (24-2, 16 KO) had his career cut miniature after a last-round loss to Filip Hrgovic, followed by a brutal first-round loss to Moses Itauma.

The 35-year-old southpaw returned to winning ways with back-to-back stoppage victories.

Talivaa (8-2, 4 KO) last won the IBF Oceania-Orient title, defeating Faiga Opelu by first-round stoppage.

Undercard remaining

At cruiserweight, Luke Modini (13-0, 11 KO) will likely need distance to beat Peng Qu (17-2-1, 12 KO), while Riley Candy (8-1, 5 KO) could stop Nathan Watson (11-3, 3 KO) at super middleweight.

Vegas Larfield (13-1, 9 KO) can hand Shamal Ram Anuj (11-8, 8 KO) his fourth defeat in a row in a featherweight clash.

Heavyweight Nelson Asofa-Solomon (2-0, 2 KO) can secure a third straight knockout over debutant George Burgess, and Stevan Ivic (8-0-1, 2 KO) can do the same against Caleb Tialu (3-7, 3 KO), also a heavyweight.

Prospective super welterweight fighter Jack Javed (1-0) should overtake Lance McDonald (1-5-1, 1 KO).
