Before his eagerly awaited fight with Jake Paul, Mike Tyson breaks down in tears as he acknowledges that he wouldn’t want his contentious life “on anybody.”
Mike Tyson, a legendary boxer, has stated that he would not want anyone to lead his contentious life.
Prior to his bout with Jake Paul on November 15, the 58-year-old had a talk with Andre Ward.
At Arlington’s AT&T Stadium, YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul will face the former world heavyweight champion.
Prior to Tyson’s medical incident on a plane, the bout was scheduled for July. Tyson experienced nausea and vertigo due to a “ulcer flare-up” before paramedics arrived.
Once regarded as “the baddest man on the planet,” Tyson is preparing for his first official bout in twenty years.
Ward, a former super middleweight and light heavyweight champion, asked Tyson whether his life had been “too much” at times during an interview with the All the Smoke Fight podcast. The former champion reacted with tears in his eyes.
He said: ‘I don’t wish that on anyone. I don’t wish my life on no one. As a whole, yeah.’
Additionally, Tyson disclosed that he was motivated by fame, stating, “That’s why I was training so hard.” I aspired to be a somebody, but I was a nothing. I desired everything. I aspired to be the greatest fighter in history.
The idea of Tyson competing again at his age has alarmed many, but he obviously believes he still has what it takes to compete.
I’m not fifty-eight. When I’m battling these young n****** in the gym and they’re hitting me like big powerful mother*******, do you think I feel 58? I’m hitting them back.
‘He’s the young guy, I’m to be the old man, he’s going to run all…night? I think he should try it.
‘He’s a younger man, he should be able to handle punches from an old withering man like me. Listen, you can’t compare me with other people my age because other people my age haven’t been training as long, consistently as me.
‘I’m just a different species of human being, I think because I’m very active in what I do. I don’t sit around and do nothing. It’s going to be a wonderful evening, entertainment will full the city of Dallas’
