The popular promoter reacted strongly to the legend’s return to the ring against the video blogger.
British promoter Eddie Hearn condemned the fight of former absolute world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson against video blogger Jake Paul.
According to the head of Matchroom Boxing, the 58-year-old legendary boxer should not return to the ring.
“Mike Tyson retired from boxing 20 years ago, he was ripped, completely. It’s been 20 years since Mike finished and he was fighting. If anyone thinks that Tyson at this age is must be in the ring, then he has no emotional feelings for this person, or he is an idiot.
God bless Tyson, he is a legend, one of my favorite fighters of all time. But I’m not lying, this fight shouldn’t happen,” Hearn told KO Artist Sports.
We remind you that the Tyson-Paul fight will take place on November 15 in Arlington, America.
Mike Tyson has spoken out before about mental health problems.
