Jake Paul’s girlfriend previously revealed her concerns about her boyfriend’s highly anticipated fight with Mike Tyson. Dutch speed skater Jutta Leerdam stated that Tyson remains a fierce competitor and stated that “he is just terrible”.

YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul will fight Tyson in front of 90,000 spectators at AT&T Stadium in Texas on Saturday morning. About 500 million viewers are expected to watch the fight at home, which will undoubtedly make it one of the most watched sporting events of all time.

Tyson is now 58 years ancient, but he has retained much of the form that made him the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world for three years between 1987 and 1990. Leerdam has concerns about this fight.

“He’s the competitor that scares me the most,” Paula said on the show podcast earlier this year.

“He’s just scary, he’s super sturdy and I’ve seen his videos. Of course, he’s a little older now. But if you’ve ever been able to do it, your body remembers it. He has this power forever. “

Leerdam still believes Paul will win this fight, but points out that the 27-year-old has only been training properly as a boxer for five years. Meanwhile, Tyson has forty years of experience to draw on.

“One thing about Jake is he’s been doing this for five years,” she continued. “I think it’s worse than being almost 60… and having this power your whole life. You trained so much, your body will remember it.

“Jake wasn’t even training five years ago… he was partying. (Tyson) is 58 years ancient but he is sturdy, his body just remembers how to fight.”

Leerdam is not the only person in Paul’s inner circle who has concerns about fighting one of the greatest boxers of all time. Paul previously revealed that his mother constantly asks his team questions.

“She’ll be there, but my mom is actually very scared,” Paul said. “Like he keeps asking me if I’m ready, he keeps asking my team if I’m ready. Honestly, she doesn’t like it. He (Tyson) just looks scary and powerful and his Instagram videos with the gloves make you look crazy and everything, so I get it.”

People close to Tyson also questioned his acceptance of the fight. Iron Mike says his wife wonders why he does this.

“This fight won’t change my life financially,” he told SPORTbible. “If I did it for free, it wouldn’t change my life. My wife keeps telling me, “You don’t have to be in this fight.”

Former world champion Anthony Joshua has expressed his concerns for Mike Tyson ahead of his fight with Jake Paul, stating that he will be praying for Tyson’s safety. The highly anticipated fight will take place on Friday, November 15 at AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas, and is expected to attract up to 80,000 spectators.

The fight was initially scheduled for July, but had to be postponed because Tyson suffered a flare-up of ulcers during a flight two months before the original date.

Mike Tyson, also known as “Iron Mike”, has not competed in a professional match since his loss to former Irish boxer Kevin McBride in 2005. However, four years ago he took part in an exhibition match against another boxing legend, Roy Jones Jr. .

The 58-year-old last tasted victory in the ring in 2003, when he defeated Clifford Etienne. Jake Paul, nicknamed “The Problem Child,” made his professional debut in 2020 and has been quite busy in the ring since then. He already has wins over Tyron Woodley, Anderson Silva, Nate Diaz and Ben Askren. With a record of 10-1, his only loss was to Tommy Fury on points last year.

The announcement of the fight was met with criticism due to the significant age difference of 31 years between the two fighters. Concerns about Tyson’s health have increased after the 58-year-old recently revealed he had trouble walking after training.

British heavyweight boxing star Joshua gave his predictions for the upcoming fight and tipped 27-year-old Paul to win. He said, “He is [Mike Tyson] now older. I pray he comes out robust. I think Jake Paul because of his youth – that’s the only thing.”

Despite criticism from many sides, Tyson Fury remains positive about the event and suggests that those who are not interested in the high-profile fight are simply “jealous”. He told ProBoxingFans: “I think it’s a fantastic event. Anyone who doesn’t think this is a fantastic event is jealous.

“Of course, it will be mainly the people who don’t make money from it who will be jealous, because it’s not them. So they would probably talk badly about it. But obviously I’m not involved in it, I don’t get paid from it, but when I see it, I see a huge, large-scale event and I appreciate Mike’s performance at his age and I appreciate Jake’s performance and bringing so many eyes to boxing.

In an interview with MMA Fighting ahead of his first fight against Oleksandr Usyk in May, Fury expressed his admiration for the upcoming fight, which will be streamed live on Netflix. “Only jealous warriors [feel weird about the showdown]– he noticed.

“Negative people who don’t make any money. I think it’s fantastic. It made a lot of money. “Seeing the legend Mike Tyson back in the ring in my day… I know [Jake and Logan Paul have] a lot of haters, but I’m not one of them.”

Former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping confidently stated that he would easily defeat YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul. Paul, known as “The Problem Child”, is currently preparing for his upcoming heavyweight clash with former undisputed heavyweight champion of the world Mike Tyson.

Since making his professional boxing debut four years ago, Paul has become known for challenging UFC legends. He can boast of victories in the ring over Anderson Silva, Tyron Woodley, Ben Askren and Nate Diaz. The 27-year-old enters the fight against Tyson following a knockout victory over former UFC welterweight contender Mike Perry.

Legendary UFC fighter Michael Bisping launched a scathing attack on Jake Paul during his fight Program on YouTubeunimpressed by the antics of the “Problem Child”. “You’re a joke,” Bisping exclaimed.

“You are a disgrace to the fighting world. You are a fraud. You’re a wannabe. You are phony. Take up the challenge, you pathetic human, pathetic individual.

“Fighting is about challenging yourself. That’s right, business. Killing him for that. But don’t give me crap about this fighter. This is what gets on my nerves. This man is almost 60 years ancient. He is almost retired. …Mike Tyson was a terrifying person. Facing this man in his prime, Jesus Christ, he was one of the scariest men we have ever seen in any combat sport. This man was a uncomplicated word killer.”

TNT Sports pundit Bisping again criticized the fight in an interview with: Mirror fight. “Jake Paul, listen, I have nothing personal against Jake Paul, but he just likes to attack the UFC, he likes to attack MMA fighters, and at the same time he picks guys who are not boxers,” he said.

“Go and box a boxer, go box a boxer, or go and fight someone your own age. That’s all you have to do and I will show you respect. He’s made a tremendous amount of money as a businessman, and I’m rooting for him for that, because at the end of the day, that’s what we’re all trying to do.”

Despite hanging up his gloves in 2017, “The Problem Child” continues to challenge the British MMA legend. Although Bisping has no intention of coming out of retirement, “The Count” issued a stern warning to the youthful American.

“But don’t tell me this is the worst man in the world, don’t give me this talk about the world champion. I don’t buy it for a second. “I mean, this man dared me not too long ago to send a contract to my manager,” he said. “I have been retired for a long time, I have one eye, I have had two knee surgeries. I would smoke Jake Paul in a heartbeat, but I won’t stoop to that.”
