Right after an exhibition match between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson was announced, several figures showed concern for Tyson’s health. For example, analyst Stephen A. Smith highlighted that Tyson often used a cane to walk at 57. On the other hand, the current WBO Super-Welterweight champion Tim Tszyu told the media that age was not just a number. However, Mike Tyson continued to demonstrate laudable fitness with his latest training clips.

At this, although Jake Paul was 30 years younger than Mike, some fans think that Tyson’s experience would help him outshine ‘The Problem Child’ in the ring. But now, training with Olympians, Paul reminded the world that he still posed a threat to Tyson’s legacy!
