On November 15 in Arlington, the legendary Mike Tyson is set to face influencer Jake Paul in the ring. However, the fight is once again at risk of being canceled.
Details: According to Daily Star, Tyson faces potential disqualification due to his training methods.
Tyson has openly admitted to using marijuana and psychedelic mushrooms as part of his training regimen. While this wasn't an issue for his 2020 bout against Roy Jones Jr. in California, marijuana is classified as an illegal substance in Texas, putting Tyson in a difficult position.
