Mike Tyson is a very interesting man. From becoming the youngest heavyweight champion to avenging his idol, Muhammad Ali, against Larry Holmes, he has proven time and time again that Tyson is simply built differently.

Everything about the heavyweight champion forged in the streets of Brownsville still comes off as appealing and excites all fans of the sport. There are many things that one could point out about ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ that could just go to why he is a GOAT.

For instance, in 2013, he proved it once again on national television. While it was nothing related to the sweet science of boxing, he still managed to show why he’s just simply different.

On a Fox Sports show nearly eight years back, Mike Tyson somehow managed to throw not one but two bullseye dart shots. However, this was not just any normal throw, he secured two bullseye dart shots with a blindfold on.

Is Mike Tyson really fighting YouTuber Logan Paul?

Earlier last week, talks broke out of Logan Paul possibly facing the youngest heavyweight champion, Mike Tyson, in February 2022.

This fight was initially announced by the host of a YouTube show called ‘Drama Alert’, Daniel Keem. He tweeted out a picture of Paul and Tyson and mentioned a target date for February 2022. He highlighted that he confirmed this through direct ‘sources’.

I am going to have a return fight in February and we are pretty skeptical about the opponent, but it will be a really stimulating opponent,” said Mike Tyson.

Tyson was recently asked about the possibility of this matchup, the 55-year-old simply laughed and said-

Maybe. I’m an old man, you know? I don’t know what I could do now. Anything is possible, you know. Because by doing this we have a great exponent of charities to give to so the charities win both ways,” he added.
