Tyson doesn’t respond to Hearn’s comments
Former “Baddest Man on the Planet” Mike Tyson didn’t hold back on Wednesday when he responded to negative comments about his upcoming fight with YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul in Texas next month.
The heavyweight world king, who is now 58 years old, will meet a man 31 years younger than him but with only 10 professional fights under his belt in Arlington on November 15.
Hearn, a British organizer, called the fight at AT&T Stadium, which has 80,000 seats, “dangerous, irresponsible, and disrespectful to boxing” this month and said he would not be watching.
“He amazes me. “He’s one of my favorite fighters of all time and one of the best, but he’s 58 years old,” Hearn told the BBC. “You only need to speak to him and look at him to know this guy should not be in a ring again.”
“Everybody loves a dollar bill, including me, but sometimes the green-eyed monster can make you take some bad decisions and I think this is one of them.”
If you remember, Tyson lost his license in 1997 after reportedly biting Evander Holyfield in the ear. He refused to bite.
Reporters asked him about Eddie’s opinion, and he said, “Well, that’s Eddie’s opinion, and that’s all I can say.”
He was sure who would win the fight.
“I’m not sick. I’m just excited about the fight. Getting really excited about it. “If you think about it, this guy has only had 10 fights, and I’m pretty old,” Tyson said.
“He only has 10 fights if I see this fight 10% as much as I did.” That was too good for him. And that’s being honest. He can’t beat my 10%.
“I AM NOT A NICE PERSON”
Tyson made and spent a lot of money during his career and filed for bankruptcy in 2003. He claimed that money was the reason and said he was only doing it for himself.
“This money from this fight is not going to change my lifestyle any,” he stated.
“I mean, I could use a dollar like everyone else, but this isn’t for money.” There is no way that this fight will change my life in any way. This is how we can always live. Only because I want to test myself do I do it.”
Even though Tyson was found not guilty of rape in 1992, he said that even though things had gotten better in his life, that didn’t make him a nice person.
“I try to be good, but I’m not a nice person.” If someone thinks that I’m a nice person, they will be let down. “I’m not,” he said.
“I’m not a nice person.” I don’t just make people happy for no reason. I am what I am. This is basically what I mean: “I’m not trying to make friends.”
Tyson was one of the most dangerous heavyweights in history. He has a 50-6 record with 44 knockouts, but he hasn’t fought professionally since 2005. Paul’s record is 9-1.
