Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul could be cancelled if 'Iron Mike' fails unusual tests

Mike Tyson must pass an unusual test before facing Jake Paul.

Mike Tyson’s fight against Jake Paul could be cancelled if ‘Iron Mike’ fails some unusual tests.

Boxing legend Tyson and YouTuber-turned-fighter Paul are set to meet in an eagerly anticipated bout on July 20 at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

The fight will be a pro bout, Tyson’s first since 2005 when he lost to Ireland’s Kevin McBride, who now lives a very different life.

However, fresh doubts were cast over the fight after the 57-year-old suffered a medical emergency on a flight from Miami to Los Angeles on Sunday.

According to his representatives, Tyson became nauseous and dizzy due to an ulcer flare and received medical attention.

But he is now doing ‘great’, per his team.

“Thankfully Mr. Tyson is doing great,” the boxer’s representatives said. “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.”
