Mike Tyson sends a warning shot to Jake Paul ahead of their July 20 fight as the 57-year-old boxing legend posts a video of him throwing some bruises: ‘Can’t wait for this to be Jake’

Mike Tyson has sent a warning shot to Jake Paul ahead of their fight, with the 57-year-old boxing legend posting a terrifying training video to call out his opponent.

Tyson and Paul, thirty years his junior, will fight on July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

And Tyson is already well into his training for the fight, as a new video shows him landing some powerful blows on his training partner – with a scary message for Paul as well.

“Can’t wait for this to be Jake,” he captioned the video.

Tyson was spotted in the ring with trainer Rafael Cordeiro in February, showing off his still remarkable striking power.

But while many fans will consider ‘Iron Mike’ the favorite to win the fight, Paul has warned Tyson not to ‘underestimate’ him ahead of the clash, which will be broadcast on Netflix.

In a pre-fight interview, Paul alluded to a moment in Tyson’s career just months after the YouTuber was born.

“He can’t bite my ear off if I’ve knocked the teeth out of his mouth,” Paul told FOX. ‘I really think he underestimates me.’

Paul, who was born in January 1997, added: ‘He’s a lot stronger but I’m fit. He is experienced. I’m smart in the ring, but maybe he’s even smarter. It will be very interesting.’

Tyson’s last official fight was in 2005, while Paul has been boxing at the pro level since 2020.

The former heavyweight champion claimed he was ‘scared to death’ ahead of the fight, but added ‘This is a guy who’s going to try to hurt me, which I’m used to, and he’s going to be very wrong.’
