MIKE TYSON breaks his silence after medical emergency; gives update on his condition

Wednesday, May 29, 2024 - Legendary boxer, Mike Tyson has broken his silence following a medical scare just weeks before his showdown with Jake Paul.

The 57-year-old became nauseous and dizzy on a recent flight, forcing airline staff to ask passengers if there was a doctor on board. Paramedics later boarded the plane to treat Tyson after it had touched down in Los Angeles.

The incident sent doubt over his July 20 fight, but on Tuesday Tyson wrote on social media: 'Now feeling 100% even though I don’t need to be to beat Jake Paul.'

The pair will meet in a controversial fight, broadcast on Netflix, on July 20 at the home of the Dallas Cowboys.

Tyson's representatives had previously insisted the former heavyweight champion was 'doing great' after 'an ulcer flare-up 30 minutes before landing.'

'He is appreciative to the medical staff that were there to help him,' they told the New York Post.

Now feeling 100% even though I don’t need to be to beat Jake Paul.
