Mike Tyson has begun the war of words with Jake Paul ahead of their clash in Dallas on November 15.
The two were set to meet on Saturday night, but an ulcer flare up for Tyson stopped him from training and therefore the boxing legend was forced to withdraw from the fight.
Instead Paul will face former UFC star and bare knuckle fighter Mike Perry in Tampa live on DAZN as "The Problem Child" looks to stay active ahead of what will be a huge event later this year.
Tyson has been a lingering presence in the build-up to Paul vs. Perry and in an interview with Esquire magazine, the 58-year-old explained why he decided to face Paul and made a bold claim about his ability inside the ring.
“Can I be honest? I don’t think he can hurt me,” Tyson claimed.
“I don’t think this was meant to be done by any man but me, I love it.”
