Boxer and YouTuber Jake Paul shared his expectations for the showdown with the legendary Mike Tyson.
The YouTube star will face 58-year-old heavyweight legend Tyson in a professional fight on November 15, which will be Tyson's first since retiring from the sport in 2005.
"I am a natural heavyweight. This is what I was born for: to move into this weight class and show Mike who has more power because he underestimates me. I believe I hit harder.
I know it will be tough, I know I will have to deal with challenges, I know I might even end up on the canvas, and I am afraid, don't get me wrong. But it's not fear that stops me; it's about moving forward even when I'm scared — that's what true courage is," Paul stated.
The fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson will take place in Arlington, USA. After the press conference, Paul and Tyson couldn't hold back their emotions during the face-off and began shoving each other in the hall.
It’s worth noting that the fight was initially scheduled for July 20 but was postponed due to a deterioration in “Iron Mike's” health.
