Heavyweight Mike Tyson drastically altered his nutrition in preparation for his professional boxing battle against Jake Paul in July. In preparation for the fight, which is scheduled to happen in Texas in July, Tyson has started eating raw meat.
The social media sensation Paul will face the heavyweight icon Tyson in a contentious boxing match, officially confirmed as a professional fight last week in Texas in July. Eight two-minute rounds will be fought amongst the adversaries in the ring, with the winner determined by their records.
Paul will be almost thirty years younger than Tyson, fighting at fifty-eight. It has been over two decades since Tyson’s last professional appearance and four years since his last bout.
How Will Raw Meat Help Mike Tyson Win Against Jake Paul?
Mike Tyson, the great heavyweight boxer, gave some insight into his unusual preparations before his fight against Jake Paul on July 20. In an interview with the Damon Elliott Show, Tyson,57, claimed that consuming raw meat had helped him stay in excellent form for the fight.
Is Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson A Pro-Fight?
This fight, scheduled for AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, between Tyson and the 27-year-old Paul, will be Tyson’s first official, non-exhibition boxing contest since 2005. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations agreed to sanction the fight last month, changing the earlier belief that it would be an exhibition. The bout will broadcast live on Netflix.
With a 50-6 career record and 44 knockout victories, Tyson is one of the all-time greats in the heavyweight category despite approaching 60 years of age and not having fought in a formal match in almost 20 years.
Despite Paul’s thirty-year age difference, the former heavyweight champion of the WBA, WBC, IBF, and The Ring has more experience and accomplishments than Paul. Paul is also a rising fighter, having amassed a 9-1 career record that includes six knockout wins.
You can’t arrest a dead person. I guess you can arrest a person in a coma.
This is a lose-lose for Paul.
George Foreman’s last professional boxing fight was on November 22, 1997, against Shannon Briggs. The fight was a loss for Foreman, who was 48 years old at the time. Mike is 57!
I know he feels like he’s 27 but his stamina is still 57.
Unless he comes out with guns a-blazing punches to the midsection I don’t think he has a chance...........
How much is the purse?..................
Jake Paul is a social media influencer.
Maybe when Tyson is 79, Paul could beat him.
Tyson was one of the hardest hitters in boxing. He seems to be in good shape. It doesn't matter that he's 57, it matters he's a top professional and he's fighting an amateur.
This shouldn't be legal. If this fight is legitimate, Tyson could kill Paul, or leave him with lifelong damage.
If he beat Tyson it would be huge, but if it’s not fixed, the changes are probably 0%.
It’s lose-lose for Tyson. What’s the point of demolishing a social media influencer?
If Tyson was going against Usyk or Fury, I’d agree with you. But not since he’s going against a male version of Kim Kardashian.
LOL
Don’t get upset about eating raw meat until you have tasted the beefsteak tartar at the Frankfurt airport hotel. After the meal, our 1yo son bit me in the hand. Raw meat is a delicacy in fine European restaurants. Finely ground filet mignon-raw egg- course sea salt-lots of ground pepper-capers und helles Bier.
LOL
Sushi?
Big George is only 75. He calls dibs. :)
Have you seen footage of him training? I hope he kicks this kids ass.
I’m not sure that someone with the name of “Tyson” should be pushing raw meat...
You think this idiot kid deserves to die?
lol. No. I didn’t say I wanted him to die, just get taught a lesson not to challenge one of the greatest heavyweights at any age.
Carpaccio and sushi are technically “raw meat” so, there’s that...
I like my meat threatened...
Eight two-minute rounds might do to address 57-year-old stamina. I have learned from experience that getting in the ring with someone you can out-speed but can’t afford to get hit by even once is a very bad proposition.
