Tyson looks to be in supreme shape, having showed off his legendary power following his blistering pad work with coach Rafael Cordeiro.
And footage of his training camp compared to his younger opponent has emerged online and it has sent social media into overdrive.

Needless to say, fight fans online made their feelings known of the video comparing Paul and Tyson’s training.
One X user wrote: “If Iron Mike catches him with a solid right hook, Paul is going to start a cooking channel.”
A second tweeted: “The only reason Tyson losing this match if this was a set up.”
A third added: “Tyson out here looking like he’s training to bury someone. Meanwhile Jake Paul is looking like he belongs in a Planet Fitness fails compilation…”
A fourth joked: “I wouldn’t fight Tyson when he’s 90.”
A fifth said: “Man, no one moves like Tyson. He stays so tight and compact but is so quick and powerful. Love to see it again.”
Another commented: “Jake Paul is half Tyson’s age and doesn’t have the intensity Tyson still has. He’s like a 110v outlet and Tyson is 440v and ready to light Paul up.”
