‘You can’t tell me I can’t beat Mike Tyson’: Logan Paul eyes up ANOTHER American boxing icon after surviving eight round exhibition with Floyd Mayweather… and YouTuber claims Iron Mike’s age, 54, gives him the advantage.

Logan Paul has hinted that Mike Tyson could be his next boxing target after the YouTuber survived eight rounds with Floyd Mayweather.

The streaming star, who had only fought once before the fight with the American boxing icon, was not put down by Mayweather during their exhibition bout on June 6 in a surprise outcome for the 26-year-old.

Paul is now likely to continue his boxing career and claims age would be on his side if he took on Iron Mike, who turns 55 at the end of this month.

The YouTuber told his Impaulsive podcast: ‘Someone mentioned Mike Tyson. My lawyer mentioned it and he’s like, “Nah, Tyson will rip your head off, you don’t stand a chance.”

I’m like, “I just went through all this.” You can’t tell me I can’t beat Mike Tyson. He’s old, old.’

Tyson, like Mayweather, recently returned to the ring for a post-retirement exhibition fight with Roy Jones Jr, with the November 2020 fight ending in a draw.

Mayweather, who retired from boxing in 2017 with a perfect 50-0 record, was surprisingly unable to stop Paul at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.

The YouTuber was criticised for hugging onto Mayweather too much during the exhibition fight, which generated more than one million pay-per-view purchases which rivalled Canelo Alvarez’s 2018 rematch with Gennady Golovkin.

Paul’s only other career fight was a 2019 loss to fellow YouTuber KSI from Great Britain, with the British streaming star winning via a split decision in Los Angeles.

Mayweather was also condemned for both his decision to take the fight on and his performance on the night, with Matchroom Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn questioning whether the ‘Money’s’ performance is good for the sport.

Speaking on the DAZN Boxing Show, Hearn said: ‘This never felt comfortable for me, the person this looked worse on than anybody, and he probably doesn’t care, is Floyd Mayweather.

He looked quite terrible. If you’re a young fan, you see Floyd Mayweather last night you go, “He was the best ever?”

‘I know that Logan Paul was hugging around, but I don’t know, I always said from the outside it was a bad look for the sport.’

Eamonn Holmes is preparing to air his side of his sad split with wife of 14 years Ruth Langsford. The former This Morning presenter has already moved out of their family home

Eamonn Holmes has agreed to open up about his split with Ruth Langsford in his first TV appearance since announcing their split.

The couple shocked fans with a statement this weekend confirming that their 14 year marriage was over.

It has now been revealed that shortly before the news was shared by their representatives, Eamonn walked out of their family home. Eamonn, 64, is said to have left their £3.25million Surrey mansion behind and is now living at a property nearby to give Ruth space.

Amid his heartache, Eamonn is gearing up to tell all about his second divorce when he returns to GB News on Monday. A source said the TV presenter knows fans will want to hear from him and he will not shy away from sharing his side.

“Eamonn is always frank on camera and knows it will be odd for him to discuss the day’s news without mentioning his split so he’ll say a few words,” they confirmed.

“He is putting on a brave face and will be the true professional he always is. Focusing on work will be a welcome distraction,” the source told The Sun.

It has since been claimed that the couple split over a year ago but had been battling behind the scenes to try and make things work. Another source said Eamonn had no intention of going public with the news yet with Saturday’s joint statement being Ruth’s idea as she was ‘determined’ to walk away.

The Irish presenter reportedly told friends he ‘didn’t want to get involved’ and said ‘Ruth can do what she wants but keep me out of it’.

“Eamonn’s preferred way was not to tell anyone. Deep down he knew it couldn’t carry on but he was kind of sticking his head in the sand. He is very upset indeed,” they told the Mail On Sunday.

Yesterday, the couple’s leading of separate ‘lives’ was blamed on their break-up with a sources saying their work ‘pulled them in different directions.’

The duo had worked closely together on This Morning until they were given the boot in 2020. While Ruth stayed with ITV to co-anchor Loose Women, Eamonn moved over to GB News and made a series of parting shots at his former employer following his departure.

PA)Fans of the once close-knit couple had been speculating about the state of their marriage after they hadn’t been pictured together in months. The last time they were seen out was at The Television and Radio Industries Club awards in 2022. Their gushing social media posts had also come to an with with neither mentioning their partner in years.

Jake Paul has offered a three-word response to Mike Tyson’s health scare ahead of their fight in July.

Less than two months before his Netflix bout against Paul, 27, Tyson, 57, became nauseous and dizzy due to an ulcer flare up while making his way from Miami to Los Angeles, his representatives confirmed on Monday.

The boxing legend’s state forced flight staff to ask passengers if there was a doctor on board to provide assistance, before paramedics boarded the plane once it touched down in LA to provide treatment.

While he is already said to be ‘doing great’ in recovery, Tyson’s health scare has reignited fears over his safety heading into the July 20 contest with Paul, who is 30 years his junior.

After the scare, Tyson said that he ‘doesn’t need’ to be at 100 per cent to beat Paul, with the social media star now replying on Instagram.

‘Hey that’s mean!’ Paul, who is a heavy favourite to win the fight on July 20 in Texas.

‘Thankfully Mr. Tyson is doing great,’ the former heavyweight champions’ representatives told the New York Post on the back of the incident.

‘He became nauseous and dizzy due to an ulcer flare up 30 minutes before landing. He is appreciative to the medical staff that were there to help him.’

The incident was the latest of a number of health concerns, which have included the veteran claiming he once broke his back, being spotted in a wheelchair, and suggesting he will die soon.

Many are once again calling for ‘Iron Mike’ to be pulled out of the fight following his flight ordeal at the weekend, but Paul insists it is still going ahead as planned.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer hit out at reports on Tyson’s situation and wrote: ‘You love to make s**t up before knowing the facts for clicks / likes. Nothing changed #PaulTyson.’

Typical symptoms of an ulcer flare up include nausea and vomiting, bloating, belching and gas pain, as well as chest pain and fatigue.

Jake Paul expects Mike Tyson fight to split fans across age groups

Tyson will be 58 on July 20, when the fight against Paul is set for AT&T Stadium – the home of the Dallas Cowboys.

The fight has been marred by criticism in recent weeks, particularly at the vast age gap between the two fighters.

‘I don’t see too many people critical about it. Look at this,’ Tyson said at a press conference earlier this month..

When a reporter suggested there were critics, Tyson said, ‘Who? Name me somebody. You? Who?’

UFC Hall of Famer Michael Bisping insists that the upcoming fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul should not go ahead after the boxing legend suffered a medical scare earlier this week.

On May 26, the 57-year-old suffered an ulcer flare-up during a flight from Miami to Los Angeles and required medical assistance after feeling ‘nauseous and dizzy 30 minutes before landing.’

Reacting to the health scare and the fight on his YouTube channel, Bisping noted that the phrase ‘there is no such thing as bad press’ does not apply to this buildup.

‘Mike Tyson was involved in a medical emergency, paramedics had to be rushed onto the plane, the doctors had to come on to take Mike Tyson off the plane: It’s not a good look,’ Bisping said.

‘This is not good press when you are trying to promote a fight when you are 58 years old.’

Paul and Tyson will meet in the ring on July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The event will be the first boxing match to air live on Netflix as the streaming platform continues to grow its sports library.

After Tyson’s health scare led to speculations of the fight’s cancellation, Paul responded online and said ‘nothing [has] changed.’

While noting his respect for the combat sports icon, the former UFC middleweight champion was critical of the fight playing on despite the massive mismatch coming from their 30-year age gap.

‘I respect him – this is taking massive balls to go in there against Jake Paul,’ Bisping said. ‘Now listen, maybe it was an ulcer flare-up, I don’t know anything about ulcers, but what I do know is that the man is going to be 58 years old – a man in the prime of his life doesn’t have a problem sitting on a plane for a few hours.’

The Count emphasized how the circumstances present a bad look for boxing and Paul, saying: ‘This is just a great example of why a fight like this should not be going ahead.’

‘I’m not talking s*** about Mike Tyson. He wants to test the waters, he wants to make some money and feel alive, and he wants to do what he does best. But that time has passed, that ship has sailed, that plane has left the runway – but not for a while because it was hot on the plane, and then Mike Tyson got an ulcer flare-up.’

‘I think the man is pushing 60 and he’s got some medical problems; maybe he just had a bit of food poisoning or had some food that just didn’t agree with him, but what we do know is that he was carted off the plan by a paramedic and they did ask for medical assistance. That’s not a good look.’

With the fight getting sanctioned as a professional bout, Bisping slammed Paul for picking a fight with someone 30 years his senior.

Mike Tyson says Jake Paul has to ‘fight like his life depends on it’

While in his prime, Tyson was one of the best boxers to grace the ring. Iron Mike amassed a 50-6 record with 44 knockouts. After losing his last two professional fights, Tyson called it a career in 2005. He then returned to action in an exhibition against fellow legend Roy Jones Jr. in 2020 but has not competed since.

On the other hand, Paul holds a 9-1 record from mostly fighting YouTubers and professional fighters way past their primes. Paul holds wins over Tyson Woodley, Ben Askren, Nate Diaz, and Anderson Silva. His only loss came when he fought Tommy Fury in 2023.

‘Jake Paul’s in the prime of his life and he’s just cherry-picking another opponent to bolster his resume to make himself look good,’ Bisping said. ‘It’s absolutely embarrassing, it’s a shame, it’s a sham, it’s utter horses***.’

Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford are said to have split over a year ago, but were battling behind the scenes to save their marriage until a statement was allegedly ‘orchestrated’ by the Loose Women star to alert fans to the break-up

Eamonn Holmes is said to be ‘furious’ over his split with Ruth Langsford and blaming the public end to their 14 year marriage as being ‘orchestrated’ by the Loose Women star.

Pals have now claimed that Eamonn has been ‘struggling’ behind the scenes and did not want to make the news public.

According to the Mail On Sunday, one source who knows the Irish star said that Eamonn would become ‘very angry indeed’ when probed on the truth of his marriage.

After the sad news was finally made public, Eamonn is now gearing up to speak for the first time publicly when he returns to GB News on Monday morning.

Jake Paul has sent out a clarification about his upcoming fight against Mike Tyson. Paul is set to lock horns against Tyson inside the squared circle in July this year.

The highly anticipated fight will end at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Earlier, it was suggested that this would be an exhibition contest. However, it was later revealed that this will be a pro-fight with slightly different rules.

Ever since the announcement, Jake Paul has been criticized for fighting a 57-year-old retired fighter. However, it looks like he wasn’t the one who asked for it to be a pro fight.

In a recent episode of his podcast, he said:

“They’re just going to say he’s old and you disrespected him and all that sh*t, but I just want to make it clear. Mike Tyson was the one who wanted it to be a pro-fight. Mike got into training camp and called up people on my team and were like ‘Let’s do a pro fight, is Jake down?’”

Heavyweight Mike Tyson drastically altered his nutrition in preparation for his professional boxing battle against Jake Paul in July.  In preparation for the fight, which is scheduled to happen in Texas in July, Tyson has started eating raw meat.

The social media sensation Paul will face the heavyweight icon Tyson in a contentious boxing match, officially confirmed as a professional fight last week in Texas in July. Eight two-minute rounds will be fought amongst the adversaries in the ring, with the winner determined by their records.

Paul will be almost thirty years younger than Tyson, fighting at fifty-eight. It has been over two decades since Tyson’s last professional appearance and four years since his last bout.

How Will Raw Meat Help Mike Tyson Win Against Jake Paul?

Mike Tyson, the great heavyweight boxer, gave some insight into his unusual preparations before his fight against Jake Paul on July 20. In an interview with the Damon Elliott Show, Tyson,57, claimed that consuming raw meat had helped him stay in excellent form for the fight.

This fight, scheduled for AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, between Tyson and the 27-year-old Paul, will be Tyson’s first official, non-exhibition boxing contest since 2005. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations agreed to sanction the fight last month, changing the earlier belief that it would be an exhibition. The bout will broadcast live on Netflix.

With a 50-6 career record and 44 knockout victories, Tyson is one of the all-time greats in the heavyweight category despite approaching 60 years of age and not having fought in a formal match in almost 20 years.

Despite Paul’s thirty-year age difference, the former heavyweight champion of the WBA, WBC, IBF, and The Ring has more experience and accomplishments than Paul. Paul is also a rising fighter, having amassed a 9-1 career record that includes six knockout wins.

Boxing legend Mike Tyson will fight Jake Paul later this year, and tickets are already selling for insane prices.

The former undisputed world heavyweight champion, now 57, will square off against the much younger Paul at Cowboys Stadium on July 21, with Netflix to stream the event live.

While tickets haven’t officially gone on sale, listings have been posted on reselling sites such as StubHub, Vivid Seat, and the Gametime app.

The Gametime app has the lowest-selling tickets listed at $575, which includes taxes and fees. Ring-side seats are currently going for $8,067 per.

Meanwhile, a representative for StubHub has explained why tickets are being listed on reselling apps before officially going on sale, pointing out that there are folks who are involved with the event who have received tickets and might not be able to use them.

“You may see a ticket listed on StubHub before an event’s pre-sale or on-sale date,” the rep said, per USA Today. “This is because tickets are distributed across venues, sponsors, key players and individuals involved with the event, who know they have tickets and can’t always use them.

“It’s important to note there is no incentive for a seller to post a ticket on StubHub they can’t deliver. As part of our seller policies, we prohibit sellers from listing a ticket they can’t provide.”

Eamonn Holmes was surprisingly missing from his morning show on GB News this Monday amid reports of a Ruth Langsford ‘tell-all’ interview – but his return date has now been revealed

Eamonn Holmes’ return date to GB News has been revealed after he was missing from the show on Monday amid reports of a Ruth Langsford ‘tell-all’ interview.

Over the weekend, it was announced that Loose Women star Ruth Langsford and TV presenter husband Eamonn, 64, had split. The couple shocked fans with a statement confirming that their 14 year marriage was over. Amid his heartache, Eamonn is gearing up to tell all about his second divorce when he returns to GB News this week.

And now that date has been revealed as Eamonn will be back tomorrow after the bank holiday, a spokesperson has confirmed. It comes as Eamonn was tipped to reprise his hosting duties this Monday, May 27, on GB News’ Breakfast with Eamonn and Isabel.

However, when the clock struck 6am on Monday, presenters Nana Akua and Michael Portillo were filling in for Eamonn and co-presenter Isabel Webster. The Daily Mirror reached out to GB News and Eamonn’s representatives for comment, with the latter confirming Eamonn would reprise his role on the channel “after the bank holiday.”

Over the weekend, a source told The Sun that Eamonn was “putting on a brave face” amid the split but he was ready to open up about downfall of his marriage on the small screen. “Eamonn is always frank on camera and knows it will be odd for him to discuss the day’s news without mentioning his split so he’ll say a few words”, the insider claimed. “He is putting on a brave face and will be the true professional he always is. Focusing on work will be a welcome distraction.”

Golden TV duo Ruth and Eamonn were both axed from This Morning in 2020 and left the program together the following year after more than a decade on the breakfast show. While Ruth moved on to the Loose Women panel, Eamonn found new opportunities on GB News. But the transition came at a cost.

“Eamonn and Ruth’s relationship changed when they left This Morning. They started moving in different directions in their careers and their priorities started to change”, a source recently told The Sun. “Eamonn was desperate to return to Belfast, which he thinks of as home, but Ruth would never move. It became a bone of contention.”

The couple progressed on different wavelengths, which led them to lead separate lives on all levels. “As her ITV career continued, Eamonn went down another path and they became ships in the night. For the past two years they had “led separate lives, professionally and personally.”
