Tyson has sent Paul a fresh warning.

Mike Tyson has sent Jake Paul a fresh warning ahead of their fight this summer.

Earlier this month the boxing world was stunned by the announcement that Mike Tyson will return to the ring to face YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul.

The fight is scheduled to take place on July 20 at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Former heavyweight world champion Tyson will be 58 by then, and will enter the ring for the first time since he fought Roy Jones Jr in an exhibition fight in November 2020.

Tyson retired from professional boxing in 2005, and many fans are concerned that he has decided to fight an athlete 31 years younger than him.

Figures from the worlds of boxing and MMA have criticised the fight, including Eddie Hearn, Ricky Hatton, Conor McGregor, Colby Covington and Dana White.

The outside noise clearly isn’t bothering Tyson though, who is busy preparing for the fight that could reportedly earn him more than £15 million.

Videos have emerged on social media of Tyson training, although some have claimed the footage is not from this year.

Whatever anybody else thinks, Tyson is certainly confident that he will beat his younger challenger.

On Sunday Tyson uploaded an image of himself in the boxing gym to his Snapchat story, accompanied by the caption “Roses are red, violets are blue, watch out Jake Paul, I’m coming for you.”

Both boxers are treating the fight with the utmost sincerity.

The two men have been friendly in the past, but there was reportedly tension during the seven-hour negotiation when arranging the bout.

“When you sign the contract, something changes, right?,” Paul said on the ‘BS with Jake Paul’ podcast.

“Even if we want to feel that, but it’s like we are facing off, obviously, I love him and respect him so much.

“I’m honoured to be going into the ring with him, but we are f***ing fighting each other.”
