Iron Mike believes that there are no boundaries and that money is a secondary factor for him.
Boxing legend, 58 years old Mike Tysonhalf a month before the confrontation with the 27-year-old Jake Paul admitted what made him return to the ring at such an old age.
“The sky is the limit. Basically I do this because I want to become the biggest fighter in history. This is my purpose in life, this is what drives me. I want to become the greatest fighter in the history of life. That’s what drives me more than money, to be the greatest fighter from the beginning of a life that lasts forever.”
The fight between “Iron Mike” and Jake Paul (American actor, YouTube blogger and boxer) will take place on November 15. The event will take place in Arlington, Texas, at AT&T Stadium.
On June 30, Iron Mike turned 58 years old. In November 2020, Tyson had an exhibition fight with former world champion in five weight categories, Roy Jones. The match ended in a draw. On the undercard of the event, Jake Paul knocked out Nate Robinson.
Tyson had his last professional fight in 2005. Mike lost by TKO in the sixth round to Irishman Kevin McBride.
