The 58-year-old then faced several health concerns ahead of the fight, which further tarnished the controversial comeback.
Despite that, their fight on November 15, which streamed exclusively on Netflix, broke modern-day viewership records, with Tyson once again etching his name in the history books.
Almost a month removed from his highly controversial comeback to professional boxing to fight Jake Paul, Mike Tyson has admitted that he doesn’t really remember much from the fight.
When Mike Tyson‘s comeback to professional boxing against Jake Paul was announced, fans and experts immediately voiced their concerns, leading to controversy surrounding the fight.
With that, the 58-year-old was proud of himself for making it to the fight, and subsequently lasting eight rounds with the KO artist, despite losing a unanimous decision.
Paul and his team were forced to comment on the integrity of the fight soon after, as fans once again began to claim that he and his team ‘rigged’ the fight, highlighting moments where Tyson seemed to be pulling his punches.
Now, almost a month on from his history-making comeback, Tyson has admitted that he really doesn’t remember much from his fight against the 27-year-old, which has once again sparked concern amongst the fans.
“I don’t remember the fight that much, I kind of blanked out a little,” Tyson admitted in an interview with Fox Sports Radio.
Following the fight, ‘Iron Mike’ revealed that earlier this year, he almost died and required eight blood transfusions following an ulcer flare up.
