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?’
