There are rumors that boxing legend Mike Tyson and internet celebrity boxer Jack Paul first had an exhibition match in January this year, after reports that Tyson faced his brother Internet celebrity Logan Paul. However, these rumors have not been finally implemented. Tyson had just denied playing against any of the Paul brothers.
Now, a new report claims that not only was the match undetermined, but that Tyson himself withdrew from the fight for a key reason.
It was first rumored that Tyson and Jack Paul's boxing match was worth $50 million, but in the end Tyson didn't see the money, and the game was not followed.
"I'm not even interested in these things, if I had done that in the beginning, it might have been operational, and now, everything sucks," Tyson said. ”
"Tyson has undergone some changes over the past few weeks. A source said: "He was preparing to attend a show with Jack in Las Vegas, but there were rumors that the deal was not quite what he expected. This is not because his physical condition is not suitable for confrontation, but because his standard of living is high and it is not worth his risk to play again. ”
Tyson has been heavily involved in the cannabis business since 2016, earning him a fairly steady income that will make his match against Jack Paul worthless.
"There's an important factor in all of this for Mike." The source explained: "He doesn't need and doesn't want to fight this fight to raise Jack's game profile. ”
