Netflix Fight Between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul Postponed Over Health Issue

The stated reason for the delay is an ulcer flare-up that Tyson is suffering from.

But Tyson also stressed that he was in good shape and didnt hesitate to talk some trash about Paul.

I appreciate everyones patience and cant wait to deliver an unforgettable performance later this year.

Representatives for Tyson had originally insisted he would be ready for the July 20 fight.

I fully support postponing the event so Mike Tyson has no excuses come fight night, Paul said.
