Jake Paul was completely stunned after getting a glimpse of Mike Tyson in action from recent sparring videos that surfaced online weeks before their slated bout.

Tyson stirred up excitement when he shared a glimpse of his training regime on X – formerly known as Twitter – with footage of himself pounding a heavy bag and engaging in a sparring session. “Oh I can’t wait for November 15. I’m charging right through you,” Tyson hyped in the post’s caption.

With November 15 marked on the calendar, Tyson and Paul are set to square off at the AT&T Arena in Arlington, Texas. They were initially meant to clash in July, but Tyson had to bow out due to an ulcer flare-up.

Despite the delay, the seasoned pugilist is hitting the gym hard, promising fans he’ll be battle-ready for walkout day. Tyson’s last professional bout dates back to 2005 when Kevin McBride claimed victory, with a more recent exhibition event in 2020 against fellow ring legend Roy Jones Jr.

Fans and critics alike have been buzzing on social media after footage of Tyson’s training emerged online, with many quick to voice their opinions on his form as he prepares for the upcoming fight. Even Paul couldn’t resist chiming in, though it appears he was less than wowed, taking to Instagram to post ‘Iron Mike’s’ video with a quartet of astonished emojis.

The sparring video has raised eyebrows among viewers, with some pointing out what they perceive as potential problems. One observer remarked: “I think I know why there are so many jump cuts. You are going to be gassed in 20 seconds.”

Another voiced concerns about Tyson’s well-being: “I’m starting to think that dudes in some serious trouble. Hope his insurance is paid up. All that money will buy a nice wheelchair.” Meanwhile, another simply stated: “I’ve yet to see 2 min of straight action lol.”

Tyson has been spotted sporting a knee support on his right leg, hinting at a possible minor injury, though the boxing legend himself has not commented on these speculations with the fight just around the corner.
