ARLINGTON, Texas — As the days count down to Saturday, July 20, where Youtuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul is set to fight legendary boxer Mike Tyson, the 57-year-old former heavyweight champion has been consistently posting videos to his social media of his training for the match.
Tyson's latest video was posted April 16 of himself running a sprint. Another video posted on April 13 showed Tyson boxing with one of his trainers. These posts were the first pair he had posted in nearly a month, when he showed a training update nearly daily in mid-March.
Here's a look at all of the training videos Tyson has posted in advance of the fight against Paul:
When was Mike Tyson's last fight?
This depends on how you look at Tyson's boxing career. If you look exclusively at his professional boxing matches, Tyson hasn't fought a sanctioned fight since 2005, a corner retirement loss to Kevin McBride, back when Tyson was 38 years old.
However, Tyson fought an exhibition match in 2020, when he was 54 years old, against a 51-year-old Roy Jones Jr. The Tyson-Jones fight ended in a split draw. Ironically enough, this fight card also featured Paul, who fought NBA star Nate Robinson.
When was Jake Paul's last fight?
Paul's last boxing match was earlier this past weekend, a first-round knockout against professional boxer and Golden Glove winner Ryan Bourland. The 27-year-old Cleveland native has amassed a 9-1 professional boxing record, fighting professional athletes, other celebrities, and more recently, professional fighters.
