Mike Tyson takes on Jake Paul on November 15 at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
The fight was rescheduled due to Iron Mike’s ulcer flare-up back in July and now takes place next month.
Tyson hasn’t fought since an exhibition bout against Roy Jones Jr. four years ago, but despite that the boxing legend believes Tyson will teach his young adversary a ‘boxing lesson’.
“Mike Tyson can beat anybody he wants to when he feels like it, but he can do that whenever he feels like it because he can do it,” Jones told Betway.
“Jake Paul on the other hand needs to make some adjustments and learn to do things he hasn’t done before. I think Mike will teach him a lesson and teach him as he goes and teach him about boxing for what he knows because Mike knows all the ins and outs of boxing. I think with that being said, Mike could win the fight early and will do that. If Jake can hang around long enough to tire Mike out, because he’s a 58-year-old man so that’s possible and if he can tire him out, then he has a great chance.”
Jones Jr. then admitted if Tyson had to pull out of the fight again then he would be willing to step in to face the YouTuber, but on one condition.
“Would I step in and face Jake Paul if Mike pulls out?” the 55-year-old Jones said. “Well, I’m retired but if the money is right…”
