After losing to Jake Paul last night, Mike Tyson expressed his feelings on his career. On November 15, Tyson and Paul squared off at AT&T Stadium in Arlington,
Texas, drawing an incredible 72,000 spectators in addition to an estimated 120 million viewers worldwide on Netflix.
Despite the fanfare and the participation of well-known celebrities, the main event’s action was lackluster,
Despite the bout being the biggest American boxing event to be hosted outside of Las Vegas. The Paul/Tyson bout has even been called “boring” by some.
It was evident by the conclusion of the eight two-minute rounds that the 58-year-old couldn’t handle Father time,
Much less a 27-year-old Paul, who won by unanimous decision. In the wake of his loss, Tyson has now disclosed his next professional step.
After the battle, ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ was asked whether he thought his career was over. He honestly said, “I don’t know.” It is contingent upon the circumstances.
“I don’t believe so,” he said. “I only proved myself to myself, not to anybody else. I’m content with what I can achieve; I’m not one of those men who tries to satisfy everyone.”
Tyson, who seemed rather disheartened after his defeat, was then questioned, “You’ve got more in you?” In response, the world’s youngest champion said, “Yes.”
He went on to say that he would be willing to attack Paul’s brother Logan Paul, who responded, “I’d kill you, Mike.”
Tyson hasn’t participated in a professional fight in 19 years. But in 2020, he faced Roy Jones Jr. in an exhibition bout, which was his last time in the ring.
Iron Mike dominated the most of the contest, but to the disappointment of many fans and commentators, the outcome was a tie.
‘El Gallo de Dorado’ Paul, on the other hand, last fought earlier this year and defeated Ryan Bourland by first-round knockout.
He said at the time that while defeating someone in the first round felt fantastic, he would much prefer face a challenge
“To be honest, I’m a little let down. At a press conference after the bout, he said, “I want more, I want a challenge,
And we had someone with 20 fights and I just keep on getting these guys out of there in the first round.” “The supporters are also a little let down since I train so hard.
I want someone to put me to the test so I can improve and demonstrate some of my new abilities. “I did feel good, I just wanted more and we will go back to the drawing board and see who’s next,” he said.
