J. HumzaNetflix will host its first live combat sports event on July 20, pitting Mike Tyson against Jake Paul, even as the boxing legend continues to be warned against attending. The two fighters are 30 years apart, and Tyson’s age is starting to show after recent health problems.
Tyson was candid on stage during his first press conference with Paul, admitting that while training was going well, he felt it.
“I’m pretty… I’m doing great, but my body is sore right now… I’m sore,” Tyson said on May 13 in Harlem, Recent York. Just two weeks later, Tyson suffered from a flare-up of his ulcer. – on his feet on a flight from Miami to Los Angeles and needed facilitate getting off the plane because he felt dizzy and nauseous.
Tyson and Paul will make history when they headline the first boxing event on Netflix, and they’re sure to reap significant profits from the event as 270 million people around the world will be able to access the fights around the world via subscription. But here, Express Sport looks at three warning signs as Tyson wants to be in fighting shape.
Wheelchair and cane
Tyson retired from boxing due to back problems and also suffers from sciatica, a term used to describe lower back pain caused by pressure on the sciatic nerve. 18 months ago the situation was so bad that he needed a wheelchair and a cane to get around.
However, Tyson revealed that this is the only health problem he suffers from and regular exercise can actually facilitate relieve nervous tension. However, doctors believe that Tyson may suffer from another stern disease – CTE.
Doctors fear brain injury
Nathan Howarth, director of development and operations at the Concussion Legacy Foundation in the UK, is concerned for Tyson because of the repeated head injuries he has suffered during his career, and is aware that ponderous impacts at the age of 57 could do even more damage. greater damage. According to Howarth, long-term exposure to impacts to the head increases the risk of diseases such as chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).
“We know that exposure to head impacts increases the risk of diseases such as chronic traumatic encephalopathy. “The first reported cases in boxing date back to the 1930s and we still see that with regard to the risk of CTE in boxing and it is no secret that there is an element of neurodegeneration,” he said. “There is no definitive idea of what the risk would be, but for someone who is 57 years vintage, there is clearly a risk that in the context of this age profile we will have a greater impact on the older person.”
Tyson’s expiration date claim
Tyson realizes he won’t be around forever, but just two years ago he shared concerns that his expiration date was approaching. “When I look in the mirror and see these little spots on my face, I say, ‘Wow!’ My expiration date is coming up soon,” Tyson said on his “Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson” podcast.
The 57-year-old certainly looks to be in great shape heading into the fight, and he didn’t even deny he’ll be attending future events when he faces Paul. However, this may be his last professional fight after his request to have the fight declared professional was unexpectedly approved by the commission in Dallas.

Trainer Jake Paul’s brutal two-word response to Mike Tyson fight, video of which went viral

2 hours agoon
November 5, 2024Jake Paul’s trainer J’Leon Love has rejected the notion that his student will face former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson. The clash between the two teams will take place on November 15 at AT&T Stadium in Texas, with up to 90,000 fans expected to attend.
This fight will fulfill Paul’s three and a half year ambition. “The Problem Child,” as Paul is known, comes into this fight off the back of a win over former UFC star Mike Perry in July.
Since his professional debut in 2020, Paul has been fighting regularly in the boxing ring. In his tiny career, the newborn American scored victories over Anderson Silva, Nate Diaz, Tyron Woodley and Ben Askren.
With a record of 10-1, his only loss was a points defeat to Tommy Fury last year. On the eve of next week’s gala in Texas, “The Problem Child” posted a video on his official Instagram account in which he reveals how the idea to fight Tyson came about. While talking to Love, it seemed like Paul’s coach was completely against the potential matchup.
The video, which dates back to 2021, before his fight with Askren, shows the YouTuber-turned-boxer humorously hinting at the prospect of fighting “Iron Mike.” “I just had a crazy idea,” Paul said. “Do you think I could beat Mike Tyson?” Love can be seen laughing before replying, “—- no.”
Paul then questioned his coach’s advice, asking incredulously, “Even in a year?” Love, who has experience in the ring himself, emphasized the depth of Tyson’s skill, saying: “Mike Tyson just got a —-. He knows how to do it bro, it’s just…”
Paul, 27, agreed and nodded, saying: “Tyson is a dog,” and mused: “I was just thinking about Jake Paul fighting Mike Tyson? That would be fun.”
Paul’s fantasy fight is about to materialize next week. However, since the fight was announced, the influential boxer has been bombarded with criticism for agreeing to fight Tyson.
Dismissing skeptics, the newborn American recently defended his decision during an interview TODAYstating, “A lot of people wonder, ‘Jake, why are you doing this? Even if you beat him, they will say he is ancient.”
“But for me, Mike Tyson wanted to fight me. It’s an honor. He is one of the most famed boxers in the world who has ever done this. “It’s an honor and a dream come true to be there with someone of his character. It’s going to be a show on Netflix.”
Some fans are skeptical that “Iron Mike” will take his upcoming fight seriously after the sensational revelation. In an interview with Jimmy Kimmel, the 58-year-old boxing icon stated that she trains six hours every day.
“I train extremely challenging, I practice six hours a day. I start at 11 a.m. and can leave the gym at 5 p.m.,” Tyson revealed. A clearly surprised Kimmel replied, “Oh no. 11:00? So it’s six hours straight, is there a break for lunch?”
Tyson admitted that there was indeed a tiny pause, prompting a stunned Kimmel to exclaim, “Oh no.”

November 5, 2024Jaron Ennis returns to his second straight fight at the Wells Fargo Center in his native Philadelphia, defending his IBF welterweight title against Ukrainian challenger Karen Chukhadzhian in a barely needed rematch of their original 2023 meeting.
Meanwhile, Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing promotes the Ennis vs. Chukhadzhian fight DAZN Broadcast the card on live TV around the world.
Ennis (32-0, 29 KO) is one of the hottest names in the sport as he owns one of the longest undefeated streaks in boxing, and “Boots” fought 21 straight fights without having to hear the final bell before facing Chukhadzhian for the title for the first time in January 2023
That night in Washington, the 27-year-old won every round and won the IBF interim title, although the guy gave a good account of his defeat by shoving Ennis away before suffering a crushing defeat.
From their clash, ‘Boots’ knocked out Roiman Villa within ten minutes before being promoted to full champion, where he made his first defense in July, forcing the tough David Avanesyan to retire after five rounds.
Chukhadzyan (24-2, 13 KO) has since regrouped with three straight wins and returned to being the mandatory challenger in the IBF, winning the Intercontinental title, which he defended in May in Germany on points over Harry Scarff.
Bam Rodriguez is back
The card sees another featherlight heavyweight star in action as Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez defends his WBC super flyweight title for the first time in his second term as champion, against former featherlight heavyweight champion Pedro Guevara (42-4-1, 22 KO).
Rodriguez (20-0, 13 KO) broke out in February 2022, quickly winning the WBC super flyweight title against Carlos Cuadras on the cards before making two defenses before returning to flyweight and winning the title last April WBO.
The 24-year-old added an IBF crown with a stunning ninth-round retirement victory over Clear Edwards last December, then returned to the top in June to face Juan Francisco Estrada for his vintage WBC super flyweight belt.
It was a thriller, with “Bam” underperforming in one card and evenly matched in another before landing punches that earned him a seventh-round stoppage.
He will now face former titlist Guevara, 35, who is the interim super flyweight champion following a split decision in Australia against Andrew Moloney in May.
Ford looks to be getting back into shape
In ten rounds Raymond Ford (15-1-1, 8 KO) is coming back after losing to Nick Ball and losing his world title, and before moving to the super featherweight category, he should score points with Orlando Gonzalez (23-2, 13 KO) for the first time.
Coe clashes with Gallegos
Khalil Coe (9-0-1, 7 KO) also sees action, and the featherlight heavyweight can win by stopping Manuel Gallegos (20-2-1, 17 KO), who was last stopped by Diego Pacheco in his fourth fight.

Undefeated super lightweight candidate Ernesto Mercado (16-0, 15 KO) can win again at the beginning of the fight, this time against Jesus Saracho (14-2-1, 11 KO).
The only fighter in the eighth round comes in the middleweight division, where Austin “Ammo” Williams (16-1, 11 KO) returns from a break against Hamzah Sheeraz in June and should get an early win over Gian Garrido (11-1, 8 KO). ).
There is also a six-round fight in which Ismail Muhammad (5-0, 3 KO) can stop Nelson Morales (5-18, 2 KO) in a welterweight fight.
In four rounds, Dennis Thompson (2-0, 1 KO) should get on the right track and win his super bantamweight fight against Edgar Ortiz Jr (8-5-2, 4 KO), and debutant Zaquin Moses can do the same against Michael Ruiz (1-4) at super featherweight.

Mike Tyson sold ‘monster animal worth $55,000’ pounds” after tearing someone’s arm off
Published

November 5, 2024Former world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson’s relationships have come and gone over the years, but his breakup with his tiger may be one of the most painful. This comes after the couple was forced to split up when the large cat in question “teared off someone’s arm.”
At one point, boxing king Tyson owned three Bengal tigers, but gave two to an animal shelter when he realized they required too much care. The remaining tiger, Kenya, remained with him for 16 years until a tragic accident led to their separation and the woman’s alleged loss of a limb.
‘Iron’ Mike – who is due to retire and fight Jake Paul on November 15 – reportedly bought the tiger for £55,000 when he was released from prison following his rape conviction in 1992. However, their bond came to an unfortunate end when a member of the public strangely decided to enter the enclosure in Kenya.
“I had a tiger, her name was Kenya and she weighed about 250 kilograms,” Tyson told GQ (via Mirror) in 2019. “I had great affection for her, I held her, I slept with her, I kept her in my room.
“She stayed with me. I had her for about 16 years. She was a huge monster, you couldn’t imagine her size. But she was too elderly and I had to get rid of her when her eyes and head deteriorated. Oh, and she ripped off someone’s arm.
Contrary to speculation that Kenya had escaped from her enclosure when the crash occurred, Tyson clarified that it was the woman who had entered the tiger’s territory. The boxing legend explained that the woman in question jumped over a fence to play with her cat before things took a turn for the worse.
Tyson also revealed that a seriously injured woman tried to sue him over the incident. However, the lawsuit was unsuccessful because she technically broke into a fence in Kenya.
Despite this, Tyson has explained in the past that he still paid out a significant amount of compensation. In an Instagram Live conversation with rapper Fat Joe in 2020, he said, “When I saw what the tiger did to her hand, I had a lot of money at the time, so I gave her $250,000, whatever it was, because she was just cursed.” ***** up.”
Tyson is now preparing to face Paul in the ring next Friday in his first professional fight since 2005. However, fans hope that their clash will not end with stern injuries to any of the players.
