Despite concerns from a subsection of Mike Tyson‘s fans, Iron Mike’s bout against Jake Paul is still going ahead. Due to an ulcer flare-up for Tyson, the fight has been postponed until November 15.

Tyson will be nearly five months into his 58th year on Earth by that time, but he’s adamant that his recent medical situation is just a blip on the radar. Another combat sports legend, Hulk Hogan, believes the same.

Hulk Hogan says Mike Tyson has the “eye of the tiger” ahead of Jake Paul fight

While speaking to TMZ Sports in a recent interview, Hogan gave his thoughts on what he believes will be the “fight of the century“.

This is just a small glitch in the system, a temporary setback. If you watch Tyson train, he’s quick, he’s fast. He moves like he did 20 years ago… Tyson has that eye of the tiger. When he gets focused, he will seek and destroy. And I see that bad dog look in his eye now… I just hope Jake Paul steps up and is ready for Iron Mike.

 

Hogan says he’s friends with both Tyson and Paul. He complimented Paul for taking boxing seriously and making “a mark in the boxing business“.

Hogan made it clear that Paul continues to be certain that he will knock Tyson out if the fight actually comes to fruition. That confidence is key, but it could also be very dangerous.
