Their clash has been one of the year’s most anticipated fights, and the fans, despite their criticism, are excited to witness their fight. But, wait is the fight on the verge of cancellation? Reports from various sources suggest that Mike Tyson may not be at the pink ogggfrf his health.

There’s a massive 30-year age gap between Mike Tyson and Youtuber-turned-boxer, Jake Paul who has been the talk of the town since their fight was announced. As if the age gap issue was not enough, Tyson’s health seems to be deteriorating and this has raised concern among the Fight fans. Former UFC fighter and Ho’fer has come forward to explain the situation.

Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight in jeopardy?

Mike Tyson boarded a flight from Miami to Los Angeles, but it seems like the fight gods are not in the mood to give Jake Paul a fight against Tyson. According to the reports, Tyson felt nauseated and dizzy as soon as he took the flight. This response by the boxing champ was promptly answered by the flight attendant who helped him. According to Tyson’s representative, “He became nauseous and dizzy due to an ulcer flare-up 30 minutes before landing. He is appreciative to the medical staff that were there to help him.”

This news has rattled the entire fighting community which was already discontent by the age gap. Former UFC fighter and UFC fall of famer, Chael Sonnen has cast his doubt on their clash. While in conversation on his YouTube handle, Sonnen emphasized that Tyson is in a position where if he pulls out then no one will bat an eye on him. “This fight is still over a month away. One has nothing to do with the other. Okay, fair enough. If you’re Mike Tyson, put yourself in his shoes telling the story of how I can beat this young kid in his 20s, while I couldn’t even get up and leave an airplane. I had somebody come onto the airplane, whatever the reason, I could not stand up and get off of an airplane,” said Chael Sonnen.

He further added, “And if we’re purely speaking in the world of PR, if you’re Iron Mike Tyson, well, you got the world by the balls right now. You couldn’t be in a better spot. You could not possibly have a better spot. For one, the built-in excuse, which every fighter looks for.
